An architectural marvel that takes cues from Canadian Chalet design to maximise pristine placement amongst 21 acres of Basket Range's natural beauty, 250 Blockers Road is a one-of-a-kind home guaranteed to level-up the way you live.
Built 1985 and extended 1996, double glazed windows, full insulation, and solar panels embrace passive design principals to deliver near off-grid living. Rich timber detailing radiates warmth across both inside and out, from a western red cedar wrapped exterior, to soaring sloped ceilings, right down to parquet timber floors, the interplay is expertly balanced to create a breathtaking home.
Stretching over formal lounge with showstopping cathedral windows, to central study and additional family room, the layout prioritizes space to spread out and savour the views.
Boasting granite benchtops, walk-in pantry, and full suite of high-end stainless-steel appliances, including cooktop, dishwasher, and brand-new Neff Wi-Fi oven, a gourmet kitchen overlooks dining area for streamlined meal service and effortless entertaining.
Neatly divided over two separate wings for maximum privacy, four double bedrooms are each complete with built-in robes, while a dual access family bathroom showcases clawfoot bathtub for unlimited self-care soaks. Upstairs, a loft bedroom with ensuite, walk-in robe, and wall-to-wall integrated drawers provides the ultimate parents retreat to start and end the day.
An outdoor entertaining area is an enviable observation deck over the valley, positioning the local bird and wildlife as your own panoramic cinema. Enveloped by curated garden beds and securely fenced lawn, before stretching out to abundant arable land with blueberry patch and orchard, native bushland, and even winter creeks and waterfalls, it's a slice of the hills with no shortage of magic to discover.
The best of both worlds, Basket Range is a total tree change less than 30 minutes from the CBD. A short trip delivers you to Norton Summit, with the booming Scenic Hotel ready for a pub meal or quick drink with the community, while proximity to numerous other hills townships ensures you can spent your downtime finding new favourite pubs, cafes, and local businesses. Basket Range, Lenswood, Norton Summit and Uraida Primary Schools, and Oakbank and Norwood International High Schools are all in close reach, with an abundance of private schooling choices just down the hill for a simple school run.
You'll wonder how you lived anywhere else.
