17A Gertrude Street, Norwood, SA 5067

Sunshine greets you from every angle of this groovy sixties home, tucked away in a quiet back street below road level. Mornings are beautiful with light streaming through the entry's artisan crafted leadlight, while rear sections lap up continuous backyard views and the passive solar benefits of a north-facing aspect.

Relaxing in the securely fenced, spa-pool or under the pergola, you are blissfully unaware of neighbours, enjoying their beautiful forest-like gardens rather than the ins and outs of their daily lives. So, it's hard to believe that The Parade, with its vibrant cafe and shopping scene is but a few hundred metres away. It seems extraordinary and magical. This really is the best of both worlds!

With up to five double bedrooms, two fully tiled bathrooms and three separate living areas, there's ample space for a family, their varying interests and friends. The accommodation, which is all on one level and divided fairly evenly between front and rear, allows wonderful flexibility: kids down the back, parents at the front. Or, you could use the rear section - living area, bathroom and three double bedrooms including second master with walk-in robe - for extended family such as aging parents.

Create your dream couple's sanctuary from the main bedroom, bathroom and formal lounge at the front, with the latter also able to operate as a home office with independent entry.

Gorgeous open-plan living spaces with backyard and peach/nectarine side views provide a central hub where family and friends can come together to share a meal and cooking duties in the modern solid timber kitchen featuring quality appliances including a Miele dishwasher. Throw open french doors to access terrace entertaining under the pergola, with the pool and swathe of lawn in plain view at all times, inside and out.

A unique, exceptionally light and exciting family home: tweak it to your own needs and reap the rewards!
