Observation Hill - A Private Ridge. A Singular Residence. A View Without Equal.
Commanding its own elevated ridgeline in the Adelaide Hills, this extraordinary estate offers a level of privacy, scale and outlook rarely achieved and almost never repeated. From dawn's first light rolling across the valley to sunsets that ignite the horizon, the views are vast, uninterrupted and profoundly moving. A home of such presence and outlook that it naturally draws you in to pause.
Designed with architectural intent and finished to exacting standards, the residence fuses European elegance with contemporary Australian luxury. Warm terracotta hues, wide oak flooring and soaring ceilings create a refined yet grounded atmosphere, while modern comforts including double glazing, underfloor heating in bathrooms and zoned living ensure effortless year-round living.
The master suite is a retreat of true distinction. Positioned to capture panoramic views from morning to night, it is complemented by a luxurious ensuite with a deep bath, a sauna and outdoor hot tub with exceptional countryside views right outside its doors; a level of indulgence more commonly found in the world's finest resorts. This is a space designed for restoration, reflection and calm.
Multiple wings provide exceptional flexibility, allowing the home to adapt seamlessly to family living, multigenerational arrangements or long-term guests all without compromise to privacy or flow. Every living space is sun-filled, generous and deliberately oriented to celebrate the landscape beyond.
Outdoors, the 146 acre estate unfolds beautifully. A resort-style pool sits against an endless Hills backdrop, while sheltered terraces and an outdoor kitchen invite long lunches, evening gatherings and quiet moments alike. A grass tennis court playing host to family fun whether that be tennis or parties - this list is endless. The grounds are curated for privacy, ease and elegant entertaining.
For local buyers, this is elevated Hills living just minutes from Balhannah, Hahndorf, Stirling and an easy drive to Adelaide via the SE freeway or Greenhill Road.
For interstate and international purchasers, it represents the quintessential Australian lifestyle: wine country, space, security, natural beauty and international airport access within 40 minutes.
Some homes impress. A rare few transform how you live. This is one of them.
