Property Of The Week: 25 Ramsgate Street, Glenelg South, SA
A charming coastal residence just outside of Adelaide.
< 1 min
This character home in the seaside location of Glenelg South offers a historic property with a colourful past reinvigorated by a sympathetic renovation.
The two-storey, 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 2-car garage home conjoins what was two separate dwellings into a home of epic proportions.
Inside, the home features triple brick walls, polished timber flooring, three-metre lofty ceiling on both levels, wooden plantation shutters and more modern details.
The kitchen offers stone benchtops and a marble-tiled splashback, flowing towards the lounge dining and out towards the rear courtyard. Also adjacent to the kitchen is a secondary undercover courtyard.
Elsewhere the lower level sees a formal lounge – complete with a fireplace – and two additional bedrooms.
Upstairs one finds the study alongside another family room, also complete with a fireplace and two additional bedrooms.
Connected via the rear courtyard comes a bathroom or laundry and a twin garage with a workshop/storage space.
Undoubtedly landing in one of the best coastal locations in South Australia, the home is surrounded by popular cafés and is nearby to the cosmopolitan Glenelg strip, South Esplanade, and beaches.
The listing is with Ray White Adelaide’s Andrew Downing (+61 404 882 311); $1,465,00 – $1,600,000. Raywhiteadelaide.com

Grand final fever and the long weekend have dampened scheduled auction activity this weekend, CoreLogic reports.
The number of homes scheduled for auction this weekend is set to halve, with 1,324 properties listed, marking the quietest week since mid June. Melbourne will experience the quietest week since Easter, CoreLogic data shows, with 223 homes prepared to go under the hammer. In Sydney, 805 properties are expected to go to market, the lowest number in seven weeks.
With long weekends in Queensland and South Australia, numbers are also down in Brisbane (111) and Adelaide (86), less than half the properties available for auction the previous week. It’s a less dramatic drop in Canberra, where 83 homes are scheduled for auction, down -22.4 percent on the previous week.
