Meandering, 70's-inspired architecture: A 4-bed, 3-living abode ready for a new chapter to begin
Tucked away in the scenic surrounds of Rostrevor and nestled at Morialta Conservation Park's picture-perfect footsteps, this meandering 4-bedroom home, split over two intriguing levels of classic c.1970's architecture, has been a much-loved haven for nearly four decades.
Flourishing with nostalgic charm that weaves character and contemporary elements from polished herringbone timber floors, lofty pitched ceilings adorned with stained glass skylights, to the sunken lounge and seamless dining experience there's something immediately enchanting about the space, feel and flow that make 10 Apalka Place a swansong to the period's unmistakable design intentions.
With welcome updates to the spacious kitchen and casual meals that now sees gleaming stainless appliances and sleek electric cook top, as well as an utterly beautiful outdoor alfresco sweeping below a vine-covered pergola and helmed by a quaint gazebo with tempting access to the wine cellar entertaining ease needs no reminder here for those looking to move in and renovate, re-inspire and revitalise its solid brick footings into a modern-day stunner.
A truly functional base to work from, you'll find 3 ample-sized bedrooms and bathroom clustered together on the ground floor, while a quick tiptoe up two separate staircases leading to a secluded second level lounge with balcony, private master bedroom with ensuite, as well as another light-filled retreat with open-air study loft in what is eye-opening versatile adaptability.
While the capacity to transform is well worth exploring, so too is the opportunity to claim a near 600m2 parcel in this blue-ribbon locale. Whether you plan to live or lease first, taking this coveted address moments to local schools and shopping hubs, along with endless, all-age adventure at your fingertips and redesigning and rebuilding from the ground up (STCC) is an equally appealing path you don't want to let slip through your fingers.
