With a contemporary design philosophy at its heart, this luxurious residence features spectacular city views. Perched high above Adelaide and set in a peaceful cul-de-sac at the top of exclusive Birksgate Estate, this two storey family home features private courtyards, large balcony and decks along with a contemporary open-plan style.
Captivating city views from the picture windows in the living room, kitchen, dining room, lower level entertaining zone, bar room and 4th bedroom/study.
This 4 bedroom family home boasts excellent options for a fortunate family. Everyone has their choice of private space in the immaculately presented home covering some 30 squares of comfort. The lower level is the ‘great escape’ for adults and teenagers alike, whilst others can relax upstairs.
An impressive wide entrance at upper ground level connects to the day-to-day living zone. On this level are 3 bedrooms (master with ensuite and spacious dressing room - it could even be converted into a nursery), large living room, new kitchen, walk in pantry, dining room and family room together with the main bathroom and 2 toilets.
The kitchen is a chef’s delight and is custom designed with contemporary joinery, cabinetry both overhead and on the island bench and is enhanced with stainless steel appliances and a dishwasher.
On the lower level is a huge laundry, the 4th bedroom or study, massive area for entertaining and a very impressive wine cellar.
The renovation has been tastefully undertaken - as well as maximising space and light throughout the house, the clever designs play on texture and finishes, with colours and materials both linking and contrasting throughout. ‘Peruvian clay’ was chosen for the kitchen, ‘Altair’ white on the walls and the lofty ceilings, ‘Quick Step’ toned floating timber floorboards and ‘Tribal Mask’ (an earthy shade) for the external render complemented with charcoal on timber beams. New sisal carpet and ruby red tiles on floors adds to the excellent mix of textures.
Outdoors, natural slate, red pavers and sandstone features walls blend perfectly with the timber decking. The landscaping includes a mix of mature trees, small shrubs, ground cover and natural stone which contrasts with the attractive tones of the building.
Other features include split system reverse cycle air conditioning, ducted gas heating and under-house storage accessed from the wine cellar.
This location is to be envied, near Burnside Shopping Centre, Unley Road and 10 minutes from the CBD.
