71 Thorngate Drive, Belair, SA 5052

This surprise package has so much more than meets the eye, with beautiful open plan living spaces and a superb in-ground pool setting.

Enjoy the benefits of living just 15-20 minutes from the city. Belair Primary, St Johns Grammar, the Belair National Park and the train for town are all just around the corner. And you will appreciate walking around beautiful streetscapes. What an environment this is!

This is a home for the growing family or couples who love to entertain! Once upon a time this 70s contemporary was designed with separate living areas around a central courtyard. Today it has been brilliantly altered to create the illusion of infinite space and sunshine utilising clerestory windows and vaulted ceilings. You will have to come and see for yourself; it really is quite captivating.

The rich earthy tones of jarrah timber contrast with the clean white walls, while a wood-fired combustion heater flickers in the background. And you will like the way glass doors swing open to the garden courtyard and pool area. In this home, there is a real sense of peace and calm.

The flowing main living areas are divided into different zones. Relax around the lounging area, and if you have a piano, there is the perfect spot. The central dining area will accommodate the largest of tables, and it is here that you can imagine a Sunday afternoon at home with the family.

The TV room is a separate space that also connects with the main living area making entertaining a breeze. It is the perfect room to retreat to in the evenings.

The kitchen and everyday dining nook shares this amazing living space, but at the same time has the feeling of being slightly separated when you need it to be come breakfast time, or at the end of the day catch-up.

The main bedroom is tucked away privately; a spacious room with excellent storage, there is a dressing room nook and a huge ensuite. In their own wing at the back of the home are three childrens bedrooms. They share a walk-through study or TV room and a main bathroom. The teenagers will appreciate their own space.

Step outside to the superb pool and outdoor entertaining area. WOW! A perfect size concrete in-ground pool will provide fun times for the whole family. The slight elevation gives a private outlook to the trees and sky views. Relaxing on the poolside deck is where you will want to be on those lazy summer days.

Looking over the pool setting is a raised veranda that feels like an outdoor room. The colour-bond clad enclosure is ready to party, and the hardwood deck just looks great! This outdoor living zone is extended by a surprise work-shed or studio space; perfect for DIY duties or the keen hobbyist.

There is undercover parking for two cars; one under the carport and the other in the adjacent garage. With other areas for off-street parking and scope for a new carport structure, this secure garage could come in very handy for the tradesperson or car enthusiast.

This wonderful home is invitingly different. The modern floor plan is unique for a 70s design, the quality construction is superior, the outdoors are set-up for fun times, and the position is perfection.

Here is your opportunity!
