59 Coromandel Parade, Blackwood, SA 5051

Surprisingly different, this cool contemporary has been lovingly maintained and has a personality all its own. Its unique appeal captures the feeling of a peaceful retreat, and the tri-level design works to create different and practical living zones that also combine well together.

And what a spot! How lucky to be able to live in such a convenient position. The flat walk to Blackwood Village is easy, and you will appreciate the walks around neighbouring streetscapes. Take advantage of the train to the city, and enjoy the open space of Hewitt oval just down the road. The home is sited so you cannot see Coromandel Parade, and together with the solid construction it is pleasing how quiet it is living in this brilliant position.

The separate living room at the front of the home is spacious, and is warmed by an in-built wood-fired combustion heater. This fireplace is a real feature, with its brick surround and wood storage box that can be accessed from outside. The room was designed with in-built shelving, and the timber sliding doors that frame the stairway entrance are classic contemporary features!

The nice size family room has a studio feeling about it, and could have a variety of uses. The glass brick wall fills the room with natural light, and you will like the way a mezzanine window extends this space through to the family dining room, the perfect place to come together at the end of your day. This space is connected to the kitchen through a servery, while a beautiful big window brings in the peaceful rear yard setting. French doors open to a garden courtyard, and the pristine timber floors have a natural look that contrasts perfectly with the clean decor.

The kitchen ideally looks out to the rear yard gardens, and the north-east aspect will bring in the morning sunshine. It is a modern kitchen with everything you could wish for; great bench space, excellent storage, a dishwasher, and a hassle-free electric ceramic cooktop and oven.

The laundry/utility room has been upgraded, and ideally there is a separate toilet. You will like the way you can step outside with the washing to an undercover pergola, while also accessing the good-size work-shed.

The stairs up to the bedrooms are a design feature in the way they seem to anchor this home. The open stair-well makes a statement, the brick wall reminds you of its solid construction, and the iron and timber balustrade are once again classic contemporary highlights. The timber steps have been carpeted for a warm and quiet walk up to your bedrooms.

The main bedroom has a feeling of a retreat, bedroom two is a large double room with built-in storage, and bedroom three is a comfortable size enjoying a fantastic elevated outlook. They all share a well-presented bathroom with some modern upgrades, and ideally there is a separate toilet.

You will love the outdoors! The rear yard gardens wander down to open space; an area where children can run amok. Or could this be the perfect spot for your very own market garden? There are different garden zones to be enjoyed all around the home. You will also find modern rainwater tanks, and stone walls that terrace established gardens. It is hard to believe you can live in this beautiful environment and be so convenient to everything!
