Renovated St Georges home an entertainer’s dream

A St Georges home is offering househunters an entertainer’s lifestyle in the heart of the eastern suburbs near some of the state’s most prized schools and shopping precincts.

The property at 20a Highfield Ave has hit the market after being updated by its owner in just the past few years.

Vendor Kiana Foroughi bought the home in 2021, attracted by its winning location and potential for a renovation.

The St Georges house at 20A Highfield Ave has hit the market.

The owner built her dream kitchen to allow for comfortable and stylish entertaining.

It’s not the only impressive feature of the home though.

There is plenty of living space.

“I was looking for a property in a good area and I also really wanted a house with a lot of light,” Ms Foroughi says.

“I like bright, open spaces and I like having morning light come through – it just makes me feel nice.

“The location is pretty amazing. It’s really safe and it’s also in a really good school zone because you’ve got Linden Park Primary just across the road and then you’ve got Glenunga, which is nearby if you wanted a high school.

“The neighbours were also really lovely with families and a mix of people, so it’s a nice area to be in.

“Plus Burnside Village is really close, I have an Aldi at the end of my road and if you go the other way there’s a pharmacy, medical centre, a cafe and a bunch of fantastic takeaway places.”

Location got a big tick, then came the renovation.

“Structurally the house was very, very well built,” Ms Foroughi says.

“From what I understand the owner built it for himself initially and it’s amazing, it was just a little dated.

“I wanted a project so, while we didn’t move walls or anything, we gutted the house and redid everything.

The home has four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The owner has renovated the home since purchasing it in 2021.

The large garage has space for some gym equipment.

It also has a cellar.

“Because I bake a lot and entertain a lot, the kitchen was really important to me, and that’s my dream kitchen and something I’ll really miss when I move.

“I’ve had up to 40 people in that house at a time and there’s plenty of space for everyone.”

The home has up to four bedrooms and offers 346.5sqm of indoor and outdoor living space over its three levels.

A grand living room opens to a balcony at the front, while an open-plan kitchen, living and meals area flows to a veranda at the rear.

A home office or bedroom sits on the upper level – Ms Foroughi has been using it as an art studio – and a garage, gym, cellar and storeroom can be found beneath the home.

“It really would suit a wide range of buyers because it has something to offer people at all different stages of their lives,” Ms Foroughi says.

“I’ve lived in several homes and this has been by far my favourite property.

“I’m sad to be moving but I’m keen to either sink my teeth into another project or head interstate, so it’s time for someone else to enjoy it like I have.”

Offers for the home close at 11am on Tuesday, June 24.
