28 Bayview Parade, Gulfview Heights, SA 5096

Magnificent views, immaculate gardens and interior - absolutely stunning!

Driving up the road to this magnificent residence, it’s hard to dream of a better location. Rolling hills, expansive parks with playground equipment and an array of beautiful homes.

From the curb you can take in the beautifully landscaped gardens, where sandstone paving and boxed hedges meet to create defining lines and espaliered Pierre de Ronsard roses are perfectly manicured against large trellis walls on both boundaries. The front façade of the home is rendered and takes in uninterrupted views over the coast.

Step inside and you are greeted by a large staircase which entices you upstairs. On this ground floor, you will find a guest bedroom with views over the front garden and its own walk in robe and ensuite bathroom. There is also a big storage room and access to the double lock up garage.

Up the stairs you come to the open plan formal lounge and dine. Incredible views through the windows makes this room a perfect spot for entertaining and relaxing. Both the lounge and dining areas have built in cupboards for storage, display glass shelving and down-lights to make these areas light up at night.

The quality finishes continue through the home, with beautiful materials and fabrics chosen for all window coverings, and down-lights throughout, most with dimmer switches.

Also at the front of the home is the magnificent master bedroom suite. Sharing views across to the coast and access to the lovely front balcony, this room has prime position. Wall to wall built in robes feature, along with a large ensuite bathroom.

Through to the large family kitchen, this is where the home truly takes on the “wow-factor”. The brilliant central location of the kitchen means it has access to many areas of the home. The formal areas, central courtyard and rear family room are all in reach. Large black granite bench tops provide plenty of work area, while the ample number of cupboards will impress. There is a large corner pantry, stainless steel appliances including a 4 burner cook top and wall oven plus a handy dishwasher. A glass splash back finishes this area, and terracotta coloured floor tiles combine well with the Beechwood style cabinetry. A video intercom system is connected to the front door from here.

Through glass sliding doors, directly across from the kitchen is a magnificent central courtyard. Sandstone paving, landscaped garden walls and beds, plus a beautiful central water feature set the standard. Towering trellis extends up the back walls and is guiding espaliered trees to find their way across and up. Privacy is key here and the atmosphere is peaceful and quite Mediterranean. The pitched roof pergola with ceiling fan, plus strategically placed night lighting, means this area is accessible all year round.

The rear family room introduces a vaulted cathedral style ceiling. Light rolls around this space and views to the gorgeous courtyard and stunning rear pool and garden make this a relaxing room. Built in cupboards around the TV area ensure plenty of extra storage space.

This end of the home also contains a large laundry with access to the rear garden and another smaller patio area - great for barbequing. There are two additional bedrooms, both double in size and feature built in robes. A large linen press in here also, confirming there is plenty of storage in this home. The family bathroom is big and beautiful and features a spa bath.

Back outside, and the rear garden is a tropical haven. You could be forgiven for thinking you’re holidaying in the Mediterranean or that you’ve just stepped out to a 5 star boutique hotel’s poolside. Tropical plants, manicured garden beds, elevated tiers of paved sandstone line up against long water-wise grasses and boxed hedging. Above the pool is a sunbaking deck and the whole area is encased with rendered walls for privacy and comfort. A spectacular set up, the solar heated in-ground pool sits perfectly against this back drop. Then, at night, deliberately placed lighting brings this area into its own. Absolutely magical!
