Idyllic Hills Retreat Wrapped in Vines
Set back and ever so gently above Red Hill Road, this sprawling lifestyle property implores you to enjoy Scott Creek's natural beauty, peace and slower way of life with the help of a solid, solar-powered home that embraces its surrounds at every opportunity.
Vast windows bring lashings of natural light into this periodically updated home that draws the eye to its gardens; and you to its social heart.
With an oversized freestanding oven, farmhouse sink, breakfast bar/island, shaker-style profile and copper splashbacks; the kitchen is eclectic, classical and supremely functional in the same breath. The home's true centre point.
A second living room introduces another layer of flexibility to this double brick home with blonde timber floors and high ceilings. With extensive built-in storage and a Nectre wood heater, it becomes a winter refuge, media room, or a quieter place to retreat when the house is full.
A parent's wing waits to one side, where a large bedroom, dressing room and separation from the rest of the home deliver genuine privacy rather than token distance.
Three additional bedrooms sit together at the opposite end of the floorplan, well-proportioned and serviced by a modern bathroom and separate toilet.
Outside, sweeping verandahs, paved open-aired terraces, fire pit zone, established fruit trees, raised vegetable gardens and wide open spaces ensure the kids swap the iPads for play on this engaging, productive and crowd-pleasing property.
A powered six-car garage and workshop create endless scope for trades, hobbies, storage or creative pursuits. Solar power and rainwater supply further reinforce the home's practical, sustainable ways.
Close to Stirling, Aldgate and the freeway, Scott Creek ensures the city and essentials remain nearby, while the broader Hills region, from Mount Lofty to Bridgewater and cellar doors beyond wait on a whim. It's a way of life.
