Constructed in 2011 by the current owners and standing in a tightly held cache of McLaren Vale homes, the home offers you the chance to enjoy peaceful surrounds while watching the sun set behind acres of vines and rolling hillside. Meticulously presented throughout, wine country serenity and inner-city access need not be at odds with one another. Tranquil open space sits at once with easy access to local schooling and shopping while remaining just a short 40-minute commute to the CBD from the nearest train station.

A rare gem in this desirable location the home combines thoughtful contemporary design and voluminous space inside and out. A sophisticated rendered façade and stone portico welcome you into a wide entrance hall with large porcelain floor tiles that continue through hallway and main living areas. Fresh neutral tones and pendant feature lighting to the entry hall and kitchen add stylish designer touches that complement the high-quality finish throughout.

The front of the home comprises a spacious home theatre and huge master bedroom suite which is the perfect place for the adults to unwind featuring a double-sized room, sizable ensuite and walk-in robe with fitted shelving and drawers.

Meticulous attention to detail is on display throughout the home, with floor to ceiling tiling to bathrooms, 40mm Essastone bench tops used in all wet areas and extensive double glazing delivering outstanding energy efficiency and a whisper-quiet interior.

A generous open plan living area combines a divine entertainer's kitchen with casual meals and lounge space as the beating heart of the home. Expansive Essastone benchtops take centre-stage in the kitchen, while a complement of stainless-steel appliances (including five burner gas cooktop and dishwasher) are on hand to inspire the chef and make cleanup a breeze. Plentiful cupboard space and a walk-in pantry guarantees a place for everything. Beyond this you will find an additional "atrium-style" lounge room which can be closed off from the main living area and features stunning views across the vineyards where amazing sunsets can be viewed all year round. Clean, sophisticated lines offer no distraction from the sweeping views of the back yard, heated in-ground pool and superb outdoor entertaining space.

Large family bedrooms will surprise even the most discerning buyers. Positioned for convenient access to the main bathroom, all bedrooms offer built-in robe space with bedroom two benefitting from the rare addition of a walk-in robe. Bedroom four enjoys glorious views to the vineyards and beyond.

The backyard is extensive and the perfect playground for kids, pets, gardeners and anyone who enjoys the fresh outdoor air.

A sparkling saltwater swimming pool and breezy Bali hut bring a touch of the tropics. Surrounded by stylish flagstone pavers and easy-maintenance plantings, the fully-fenced solar-heated pool is sure to be a family favourite in the warmer months.

A large oversized double shed with own separate driveway provides additional storage beyond the double garage under the main roof of the home. The perfect place for a boat, caravan or trailer with plenty of room for those needing workshop space.

Ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning ensures optimum year-round comfort while a 7kw back-to-the-grid solar panel installation offsets power bills beautifully.
