Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Adelaide foothills, 61 Waterfall Gully Road presents an extraordinary and tightly held opportunity - a sprawling 3,630sqm (approx.) parcel cocooned in natural beauty and leafy serenity. With its solid brick c.1950s residence still standing in near-original form, this remarkable holding is ready to welcome a visionary transformation, offering the perfect canvas for a contemporary architectural masterpiece (STCC) nestled within this picturesque gully.
Free from flood and heritage overlays, the site invites unrestrained creativity and possibility. From a grand modern build that celebrates its elevated surroundings, to a luxury estate that embraces the home's unrivalled peace and privacy (STCC). Framed by a tranquil creek that meanders through the property, this idyllic setting enhances the sense of sanctuary, inviting a lifestyle immersed in nature yet effortlessly connected to convenience. Positioned along this iconic, tree-lined thoroughfare, the property harmoniously marries scenic seclusion with everyday convenience, placing you just moments from the east's cosmopolitan café culture and dining scene.
Adding further appeal, the property is currently leased to long-term tenants who have called it home for over a decade. Their tenure - extending through to the 29th of January 2026 - offers valuable continuity and potential income while future development or design plans are drawn up and processed, making this a truly flexible and forward-thinking opportunity.
Balancing breathtaking tranquillity with lifestyle ease, this location is a rare gift: a whisper from Burnside Village, The Parade Norwood, and elite schooling, while the CBD sits a mere 10-minutes from your front door. Opportunities of this scale and setting are few and far between… and this one is yours to shape, design, and define for generations to come.
