Its excellent location offers close proximity to The Belair National Park with endless walking and bike trails, with the cosy Sheoak Cafe just around the corner. The convenient access to the city-bound railway line is a game changer for commuters.
Conceived by architect, John Barrington and custom built over three decades ago, the home has been cherished ever since - remaining as relevant and refined today as the day it was built.
Inside, the main level has been thoughtfully arranged for modern life. A privately positioned master suite with walk-in robe and spacious ensuite, sits quietly behind the formal lounge and a flexible home office - equally suited as a 4th bedroom or nursery.
Down the wide hall, an expansive, stone-topped kitchen forms the inviting central hub that links to both downstairs, and beyond to open-plan living and dining.
A cathedral ceiling, and French doors at both northern and southern ends of the living area, provide beautiful natural light to this space. Both the southern balcony and the extensive northern eco deck offer serene spots to pause and reconnect - to enjoy your morning coffee with kookaburras or koalas. Equally, these outside areas that flow seamlessly from the living area, offer fabulous entertaining spaces for long lunches and evening soirees. The slow-combustion fire provides beautiful warmth to the entire living space on wintery nights.
Extended in 2006 to include a lower two-bedroom wing and second main bathroom, the home easily adapts to family living, offering a peaceful retreat for growing children or frequent guests. A flexible space for study time or play time is handily located near the stairs, while a large walk-in cellar provides an excellent place to store special wine.
With 6.6kW solar panels, a solar hot water system and all electrical appliances, heating and cooling, this is a home that from its original design, is eco-aware.
It is utterly at one with its surroundings, with its solid timber flooring and expansive picture windows framing the bushland beyond in beautiful Belair.
