Before it first sold in 2017, this home in one of Adelaide’s premier seaside suburb was listed on realestate.com.au as one with “potential for renovation” and “ripe for an update”.

While neat and tidy back then, the long-held family home was in need of a contemporary makeover.

Now back on the market again, the home at 18 Renwick St, West Beach is turning heads for all the right reasons.

While the entrance has 3.5m ceiling height, the rest of the home has 3m ceilings throughout.

There are four spacious bedrooms, multiple living areas and 3.5 bathrooms. While level one has an expansive open plan main living, dining and kitchen, the home’s second level is dedicated to the master bedroom and ensuite. It also has a separate retreat area that can be closed off from the bedroom via dual timber barn doors.

The home’s four outdoor terraces/balconies offer stunning panoramic views of the ocean to one side, and the Adelaide Hills and the city to the other.

The ground level is equally spacious and can be used as a workshop, a gym or for undercover storage. There is also room for up to seven vehicles off-street including a double garage.

Selling agent Anthony Fahey of Ray White – Henley Beach, who is presenting the property to market with co-agent Samuel Parsons, said the home was garnering strong interest since it hit the market.

“The home is indeed stunning and offers luxury coastal living. Seeing is believing and you really need to go through the home to appreciate the quality and class of the property,” Mr Fahey said.

“The location is also highly sought after – it’s positioned between the much coveted Military and Seaview Roads,” he said.

Apart from ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling, the home has commercial grade solar panels from Belgium with a TESLA battery, an in-ground swimming pool and water feature, and security alarm system.
