Holden historian Don Loffler with his 1954 FJ Holden outside the home
With a beetroot-coloured bathroom and a vendor acclaimed for his books about Holden
a mid-century home in Klemzig was always destined to stand out from the crowd
that the 1958-built home at 19 Clarence Ave sold before its scheduled auction on Tuesday
after receiving an offer too good to refuse
Selling agent Bradley Eastwood of Ouwens Casserly said the sale was an all-round success
“The property ended up selling for $610,000
so well above its price guide (of $595,000),” Mr Eastwood said
“We had huge interest of people just wanting to have a look at the house
although from a buyer’s perspective it wasn’t heavily attended
we still had five offers and it ended up selling to a local buyer with a young family who plans to live in it as is
for now till he decided what to do with it
“Don is just stoked with the result as he was so nervous leading up to the auction
so he’s glad we ended up getting a good result.”

It was also the birth place of Mr Loffler’s acclaimed Holden book series
including his first page-turner She’s a Beauty: The Story of the First Holdens
Mr Loffler said he and wife Lou bought the property 51 years ago after failing to connect with the then “typical cookie-cutter homes” in the neighbourhood
“We originally looked at a number of houses that were the traditional cream brick design but we just didn’t warm to them,” he said
“So the agent suggested we should look at this one
we were bowled over by the bright airiness of the place
Christmases and dinner parties – which were all very special
“But one of the main talking points has always been the bathroom
We did think about modernising it but my kids asked me not to

The new archway entrance to The Dutch Pantry is finished
So step through into the land of the Dutch and tickle your tastebuds with the goodies available
The Dutch Pantry in Klemzig is now impossible to miss with its new traditional Dutch inspired signage
It was too easy to miss the dutch gem with it sitting back from the road
sandwiched between the walls of its neighbours
Thanks to the work of the talented artist Matt
who embraced the dutch artistic style and fashioned a fantastic piece of artwork
allowing The Dutch Pantry to stand out and its heritage to be proudly displayed
is ecstatic with the completed arched frontage and the attention-grabbing dutch heritage it displays
“It’s everything I’ve ever dreamed about
owning this shop,” said Angela Leaney
the completion of the construction has transformed the business and updated the aesthetic
Walking under the arch is like walking through a portal straight into the Netherlands
Take a wander through the archway and find yourself surrounded by a delicious array of traditional dutch products
kroketten frikandellen and many more goodies to tempt your taste buds and leave you drooling
you can pop in from Monday through Saturday between 10 am
or on Sunday from 11 am to 3 pm for some heartwarming
This is the perfect way to immerse yourself in Dutch culture
and meander through the archway straight into the land of the Dutch together and pick yourselves up an ooey-gooey Apple Strudel
Just the thought of the hot Dutch snacks leaves your taste buds tingling
