Aficionados of this compelling housing style will be in excited expectation of viewing. This is a Mediterranean Manner on a most grand scale.
Set on nearly 2700sqm of premium hillside land backing on to the galleys linking the Adelaide hills to the water ways of the plains this unique residence dominates the courts streetscape being the keystone allotment right at the top of the court making for a secure location shared with many of the areas land mark residences.
This elevated disposition allows for terraced gardens and a superb use of the natural fall of the land allowing for a multi-level offering that boasts sumptuous sunken lounge, raised formal dining room, spectacular and expansive casual area that spill to the Latin bath inspired pool and the secret underground lair that is the children's living area that is equal in dimension to the extremely impressively proportioned casual living room.
This home impresses room by room with every gorgeous arched period door leading you beyond to another marvelous space. One feels instantly that one is discovering something new and exciting behind every door. The Spanish reproduction style is creatively adhered to with a healthy dose of 70's kitsch melding the two classic styles together seamlessly to make for a remarkable and indulgent living experience that is unique and something your friends and family will always fondly remember.
Luxuries abound like the ensuite, the lovely master bedroom that envelopes the parents retreat that takes in all the stunning views of the Northern plains making the most of this truly amazing disposition.
Some of the other things you won't be able to live without once you have had them are the gorgeous Latin Spa inspired pool area. You feel like you are on holiday every day in this most private and tranquil of settings. The neighbours feel a million miles away as the soft gully breeze cools the suns warming rays. With the gentle trickle of water flowing in the background and the sounds of birdlife humming away, koala's hanging from the gums and kookaburras laughing from the trees.
Although practical in every respect this home is an exponent of a style of home that was diluted and downsized to an affordable level and made popular in the mid to late 70's and early 80's in Australia but in California and South Western United States is revered and continues to be built on this grand scale. Rarely is this size of "Spanish Mansion" available in South Australia and it is indeed a privilege to offer it to the market with its in nearly original specification and appointments.
