34 acres (14.16ha) of expansive hill top vista with views of Marble Hill, Mount Lofty and glimpses of the northern suburbs and the Gulf. Enjoy the starry night sky preceded by the breathtaking sunsets that only the hills can provide. Be amongst the Australian fauna and foliage at tree top heights, taking in the scenery that is second to none. Just a few steps from the home is a spectacular bushland walking trail that runs adjacent to the property line. Take a stroll along the forest reserve, where you are likely to encounter the local koalas and kangaroos, along and other wildlife. The property offers a secluded natural paradise that is a scenic 15 minutes to the Eastern suburbs.
Amongst the spectacular scenery sits this stunning, eco-purposed, architecturally designed, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home which provides off the grid, luxurious living. Although modern, this home is oozing rustic charm with the thick rammed earth walls and massive reclaimed timber beams, all incorporated with ultra-impressive, state of the art living standards. Suspended lights give ambiance to the main living area that flows from this open concept design. Imagine watching an awe inspiring sunset while preparing the evening’s meal in the beautiful kitchen which encompasses a 900mm La Germaina gas cooker, high cabinetry with soft closing drawers, a large island bench, a Smeg dish washer and stainless steel accents. Cosy up to the newly installed combustion heater which is fuelled from the abundance of the firewood sourced from the property and enjoy the warmth that no other heat source can provide, whilst being entranced by the spectacular hillscape. Double glazed doors and windows throughout the open plan living areas provide additional insulative qualities. The impressive 13 foot pitched ceiling enhances the outlook to the incredible, tiled, concrete viewing deck that overlooks the land. The light filled master bedroom has 2 built-in robes and an ensuite that includes double, drop down, rain heads and double basins.
Step out onto the beautifully paved courtyard through your own private French doors, or leave them ajar to catch the cool evening gully breezes. The second bathroom includes a heated spa tub in stunning contrasted tones, for enjoyment on those days where a long soak is demanded. With plenty of floor to ceiling storage in the hallway there is ample space to accommodate your treasures. Situated on the other side of the home are the two additional bedrooms which also include grand views, along with their own French doors which lead out to the northern courtyard.
The outdoor entertaining area is designed with seamless integration to match the interior design of the house, encouraging you to experience the rich, Adelaide Hills outdoor lifestyle. This area includes the plumbed bar and BBQ area that mirror the interior home’s rustic timber work, a landscaped courtyard, a 3m x 3m cellar and access to the optional additional living area of the linked shed. Around the home is low maintenance landscaping with beautiful native shrubbery and artificial lawn which is a wonderful and modern transition to the beautifully paved court yard. A separate, tiled concrete deck, off the main living area, suspends you with a bird’s eye view to the valley below.
The 20ft x 30ft fully lined shed can be perfect for an outdoor studio, workshop, games/exercise room, additional indoor/outdoor living or an office and includes a combustion heater that will provide comfort on the cooler evenings and winter days. Providing power to the residence is a state of the art solar system, with a 10 kilowatt per hour battery pack, that includes an automatic start, backup generator to help maintain power storage throughout the winter months and high demand energy times. There is a solar heated, gas boosted, hot water system and 10,000 gallons of rain water storage plus additional emergency water storage to provide your daily water needs.
