Tucked securely behind historic St Alban's house at the end of a quiet driveway lined with young lilly-pillies and camellias, lies a designer-ly modern and deceptively spacious home fit for even the largest family. At a pinch, you could set up six bedrooms and still have room to live, relax and play.
And yet, this is a home where abundant light, airy atmosphere, clever design and a multitude of storage elements combine to evoke not just the feel of a place where everyone has room to move, but also the happy reality.
It all begins with the welcoming, timber decked and vaulted porch, which opens onto an unusually generous entry hall: such a surprising voluminous embrace after walking down the fenced driveway. To your left, what the double doors suggest might be a formal room is one of the most generous walk-in 'cloakrooms' you could find: perfect for general storage as well as day-to-day coats, boots and the family's sports gear.
From there, the welcome expands into the kitchen, family room and meal areas. Underfoot throughout - with the exception of the neutrally carpeted bedrooms - is the shine of up to the minute large, square, glazed tiles: a boon to quick and easy housekeeping. The kitchen sits under a lowered feature ceiling creating the impression of a kitchen TV show set, which it could well be with Cesarstone benches aplenty, a huge island breakfast bar with double sink, and underbench and overhead cabinets galore. Euro dishwasher, 900mm Omega 5-burner gas stove and electric oven, jumbo fridge alcove and a truly capacious walk-in pantry (even this gets natural light through the laundry) complete the culinary dream.
Two outdoor leisure areas flow naturally from the large living area through double full-length glazed doors: the BBQ patio area facing north, and accessed from the family room; and from the formal/informal dining room a full-width entertainment deck with lined ceiling and new Slidetrack blinds for winter warmth. The latter overlooks a well grassed lawn ideal for children's play and shaded by a mature redgum.
Three large family bedrooms also enjoy the Birdwood light, all with built-in robes, new carpet and double block-out/sunfilter blinds. A fourth bedroom originally designed as a nursery sits close to the kitchen for easy monitoring, but could equally serve as a snug or formal dining room. Creating a sixth bedroom opportunity or study is an extra internal room in the 'sleeping' wing of the house.
The well appointed, large family bathroom features a bath, separate shower and floor to ceiling tiles and is adjoined by a separate toilet and vestibule vanity with extra linen storage. The laundry is well fitted out with bench space, under-bench cabinets and a double inbuilt linen or storage cupboard. It also has direct access to an out of view outdoor drying area.
There is also direct access to the double garage, which is under the main roof and accessed via an electrically operated rolladoor. There being other garaging on the property, the current owners have cleverly used this space for extended family living.
The master bedroom, at the front of the home for privacy and separation from family bedrooms, is generous in size with natural light filtered by plantation shutters. Its en suite bathroom is also fully tiled - with shower, vanity and separate toilet - and a large dressing room means minimal furniture is need in the bedroom itself.
The house has a 7,3kw r/c air conditioning unit ducted throughout to provide year-round comfort. Direct heat and winter atmosphere come with a large, fan-assisted slow combustion heater, which is a feature of the family room.
Away from the house but accessed via a paved forecourt is a three-bay garage, concrete floored with two remotely operated rolladoors and further space for a workshop or storage. A rainwater tank harvests water from the garage roof, handy for watering the chickens in the chicken coop (chickens not included). The forecourt provides ample room for visitor parking or boat and caravan storage.
This home is a very attractive offering, with much room to live, perfect privacy, and unbeatable location in an historic and unspoiled Adelaide Hills town: close to the local primary and high schools, supermarket and broader Hills' services and attractions.
