9 Glenside Road, Crafers SA 5152

There's something special about the way dark, ultra-modern homes immerse themselves into the natural environment like they've always belonged. It's something else altogether when that setting sits proximate to the tranquil lap of Stirling and its creator is none other than Urban Habitats.

This architecturally conceived 4-bedroom home is testament to the ingenuity, workmanship, time and expense that ensured such a bold vision could materialise on such a challenging site. Proof the most beautiful things don't often come easily.

The result: a truly one-of-a-kind dwelling that follows an asymmetrical 'U' shape to wrap its arms around a central deck, worship the sun at the right time of year, in just the right places, and utilise the principles of passive design, including orientation and cross ventilation. The solar array, hydronic heating and double glazed windows help create year-round comfort with energy-use reduction in mind.

It functions beautifully. It feels good. It looks even better thanks to the likes of its black Axon-clad facade, polished concrete floors, sharp lines, custom timber joinery, oversized doors and expansive picture windows that frame the natural environment like a work of art on the wall.

If you could take the sleek industrial edginess, supreme functionality and enduring quality of the home and sum it up in one space, you wouldn't have to look beyond the open-plan kitchen and its natural stone island bench, dual ovens, sky-lit butler's pantry and American Oak 2PAC cabinetry.

It all sits deliberately back from Glenside Road to make its sprawling grounds, spacious lawned areas, front deck, cubby house and fire pit zone a front yard like no other.

For those who want to make something of the semi-rural rear, plans have been approved for self-contained accommodation, ensuring guests too can appreciate the magic of a property that makes the rest of the world disappear, just a short walk from Stirling village. Special is an understatement.
