Because the hills and valley marry so magically ahead is the very reason this home exists an architectural art piece, nestled amongst nature, on some 14 spectacular hectares a 5-minute dash to talk-of-the-town Nairne.
In an earth-sensitive design by Troppo Architects, this modern creation does what it was designed to do: respond and connect with the environment the rugged terrain, majestic gums, the rising sun, winter mists, and especially the horizon that hits you at eye-level in a 3/4 bedroom footprint that skilfully reinvents family living.
Embodying light, style and natural finishes, it leads with warm hardwood floors, teases with tactile mini orb and exposed brickwork, and brings bi-folding glass, sash-less windows, lofty ceilings, and louvred panes for passive air flow.
It also brings versatility with a mezzanine loft above the striking open plan kitchen, 2 room separate guest accommodation with 2 ensuite bathrooms a detached garage/workshop and plenty of room for vehicles, livestock and horse-riding, plus, something completely unexpected - far-reaching views to Lake Alexandrina.
And as every passing hour bathes the hills in a new hue, you'll savour golden sunrises, hovering storms, watch wedge-tailed eagles circle above, and appreciate the bird-attracting, low-care gardens that edge nearly every window.
But wait till you witness the ethereal glow the master bedroom receives through its floor-skimming ensuite glass...
This will excite all buyers - whether you paint, write, read, farm, or burn around on quad bikes for a living, there's nothing like it, yet it keeps every urban need in reach: Klose's Foodland, the Hilltop Grind Café, Little Birdy Bakery, Nairne post office and fodder store, all just 15 minutes to Mount Barker via the Bald Hills Road freeway exit.
