Leaving the tight grip of the very family that designed and commissioned its superior build in 1978, the story fits the description for this architectural-inspired double brick home that carves out a distant ocean glimpse from its elevated corner plot on the brink of Crafers village.
Influenced by an era and style of design synonymous with the Adelaide Hills and the mid to late '70s, this expansive and striking home makes a rousing first impression, casting a wide footprint to maximise that 180-degree vista toward Lake Alexandrina.
Ceilings rake to the heavens and exposed brick walls follows their lead in this split-level home that revels in the longevity of its masterful construction and a series of recent upgrades, including an ultra modern kitchen with a monochrome theme, marble-effect benchtops and prime central position.
If the kitchen is the hub, the bevy of living zones that feed it are good reason to find your own space and time across a free-flowing layout with an elevated dining zone, a sunken lounge room that accentuates those soaring ceilings and a family room with instant access to a timber-decked terrace.
The main bedroom - featuring an ensuite and walk-in robe - finds solitude in its own wing and pairs beautifully with an adjacent study that could just as well be a baby's nursery or fifth bedroom in this truly versatile home.
The terrace hovers over a gently undulating half-acre parcel with sprawling lawns, dual access points, lock-up shed/garage, cubby house, productive fruit trees and a custom wood oven itching to sling hot pizzas for those Sunday lunches under the old Claret Ash tree. The story continues…
