Relax and unwind in this three bedroom home, surrounded by trees and your very own creek! The 1960 built home is set on an 1863m2 block and retains many of its original retro '60s features such as wide windows, wood panelling, L-shaped layout and exposed stonework.
Imagine your sleepy weekends where you can take it easy on the balcony, drinking coffee in the morning sun, surrounded by trees and birds.
The home has three bedrooms - main bedroom with built-in-cupboards. The living room has a striking original stone fireplace - an impressive focal point and a great space to curl up in winter. The living room also overlooks the garden complete with fishpond and your own creek. There are floorboards under the carpet in the living room, which could look stunning next to the dramatic stone chimney.
Enjoy the winter sun in a cosy spot by a north-facing window in the bedroom, or relax in the rumpus room. Enjoy the best of the changing seasons while looking out across the superb garden through the large picture windows, while staying warm by the open fire. Fall asleep to the gentle sounds of frogs in the pond, the winter creek and wind in the gum trees.
In the warmer months relax by the creek, play badminton on the lawn or have some friends over for drinks and a barbecue.
There is plenty of potential with the generously sized rumpus room. Use as an office, set up a tennis table or pool table to keep the kids amused, or perhaps set up a home theatre system and turn it into a man-cave or parents retreat?
The home also has a workshop and/or cellar underneath the house - work on your DIY projects or turn it into the ultimate wine cellar.
The home is only a short distance to public transport, Blackwood shops, parks and walking trails. Walk to the Blackwood Train Station or the Blackwood shops in ten minutes, and it's only a five minute walk to the bus stop.
Weekends outings are easy - drive to the city or the beach in 20 minutes, or take an afternoon drive through the Adelaide Hills, to the southern beaches or a number of fantastic SA wineries.
Step out the door and walk, run or cycle through parks, along creeks and quiet streets to Belair National Park and other local trails.
On top of that, there are excellent local schools nearby including Belair, Hawthorndene and Coromandel Valley primary schools and it's only a minutes' walk to Hawthorndene Oval, tennis courts, a playground and local icon, the cafe Joan's Pantry.
