Some properties are defined by what stands there today; others are exciting because of what could stand there tomorrow. Occupying approximately 670sqm in sought-after Lockleys, 9 Dartmoor Street presents an increasingly rare opportunity to secure a substantial parcel of land in Adelaide’s tightly held inner west.
The largely original 1956 residence offers three bedrooms, one bathroom and generous vehicle accommodation. Comfortable enough to continue serving as a rental while future plans take shape, the property is currently returning $500 per week from a long-term tenant on a periodic lease.
For buyers ready to look beyond the existing home, this is a compelling chance to clear the canvas and create a contemporary residence tailored to their lifestyle, subject to all necessary planning and statutory consents.
The Home.
The home remains honest to its era, with a straightforward floor plan comprising a separate living room, adjoining dining area, original kitchen, three bedrooms and a central bathroom. Timber flooring, established proportions and broad verandahs reflect its mid-century origins, while the current condition leaves ample scope for renovation should buyers prefer to retain the dwelling.
Outside, the depth of the allotment becomes immediately apparent. A large rear yard is complemented by a separate rumpus room or workshop, freestanding garage and useful storage, while the secure tandem carport provides practical off-street parking. The real value, however, lies in the land and the opportunity it creates for an entirely new vision.
