19 The Crescent, Crafers SA 5152

Standing triumphantly on The Crescent - Crafers' storied and most sought-after street - is a transformation for the ages; a grand design years in the making, and a 6-bedroom home with its own story to tell on more than 6000 square metres of enchanting land.

Conceived by the current owners and renowned architect Pauline Hurren, that transformation has turned 'Primrose Cottage' - a tearoom for weary travellers in the 50s - into a two-storey epic with a knack for entertaining and a solar heated pool at its feet.

Enter past the Edna Walling inspired gardens to greet the lofty ceilings, polished pine floors and countless picture windows of a ground floor that instinctively pulls you to the open-plan living room and designer kitchen at its heart...

With Brazilian Quartzite benchtops in Everest White, custom cabinetry in cream and a 900mm oven in stainless steel - the kitchen is as striking as it is functional in a living room that feeds a formal lounge, second living room and lower level rumpus room (or "man cave", as the current owners call it).

A study and a master bedroom boasting a walk-in robe and an ensuite studded with natural stone mosaic tiling round out a lower level that removes you from the five bedrooms above.

But it's all about coming together...

In summer, envious guests will instinctively spill outside, where native gardens form a picturesque backdrop to the pool, fire pit and a timber arbor covered by a wisteria and creeping roses...

Cook Paella on the pit and serve it on the 24-seater timber table while the kids splash about below. Now that sounds like a good way to write the next chapter, doesn't it?

More reasons why we love this home:
- Just a 7-minute walk (via tranquil trail) to Stirling
- High-end matching cabinetry/storage throughout, including built-in robes to all bedrooms
