Location, Position, Views and Huge Potential!

Built in 1978 - with its solid brick construction, contemporary design, split-level floorplan and high raked ceilings, this home and land presents a wonderful buying opportunity!<br/>The home is sited perfectly on a glorious 978sqm allotment, and takes every advantage of a very special front yard aspect. Facing north-east with views through trees to the city lights and all the way to Mount Lofty. And you can see the sea too! <br/><br/>There are no buildings opposite, just a peaceful outlook to the Shepherds Hill Recreation reserve which can be accessed around the corner. At the end of your day, think of a nature walk through this beautiful environment. <br/>The location and position are amazing. Seacliff and Brighton beach is a 12-minute drive, while getting to the Flinders complexes, Blackwood or Pasadena Shopping, and through to the city is so easy! Connected to everything and yet you feel far from it all. <br/><br/>A concrete drive wanders through the front yard gardens to a large double carport under-main-roof which has great height! Behind the carport there is a paved area for outdoor living and two entry points inside. <br/><br/>The home has three practical split-levels that separate the bedrooms and zones the livings areas. At the entry level, there is a main bedroom with a walk-in-robe and ensuite - you can sleep in and take in the view all the way to Mount Lofty. <br/>Adjacent the formal entry, there is a spacious lounge-living room with large windows that looks out over the front yard aspect. <br/>A separate study or home-office and everyday dining area with polished timber floors are in the middle level, as well as the large main bathroom that also has high angled ceilings. There is ideally a separate toilet adjacent the laundry. <br/><br/>And on the backyard level, there are two children's bedroom with built-in robes, the kitchen and a fabulous lounge-retreat or family living room with exposed brick walls and a working open-fire that is quite a feature! From the lounge, sliding doors open to the back yard or open the glass door to the paved front yard entertaining area. <br/>This great home is just waiting for its new owner to give it a fresh beginning. It will require a new kitchen renovation and possibly two new bathrooms and a laundry. Imagine having some fun with it by introducing your own ideas to complement the build quality and timeless 70's contemporary design. <br/><br/>The outdoors can come in time - they are a neat and tidy blank canvas. For now, they are a natural environment of small to medium size eucalypts that in their own way have a certain mature beauty about them - they are their own habitat and a home to birdlife that will bring peace to your everyday. The backyard is almost flat while the front yard has a large flat area in front of the home and a gentle gradient down to the street. Imagine a ground-level deck amongst native gardens and those views ... it will be breathtaking.<br/><br/>What a Location. And in this prime position, 74 Hillcrest Drive presents a fine opportunity to profit in more ways than one. A home first, but a sound investment in your future too. Make it Yours!<br/>
