This impeccably presented character home will tick many boxes. It is beautifully located in the sought after foothills pocket of Athelstone, just a very short stroll to both the beautiful Torrens Linear Park, the well regarded Athelstone School and the exciting Max Amber sports field redevelopment now incorporating football, cricket, netball, soccer and tennis facilities, along with the impressive Wayikuu centre including popular Raggies Bistro. The beautiful Black Hill Conservation Park with all of its walking trails and fabulous picnic spots is just a couple of minutes further "up the hill".
Situated on a generous allotment of some 900 SQM (approx), the home sits privately behind a quality brush fence and with only one direct neighbour. To the eastern side and rear of the property are a leafy council maintained mini reserve, and this provides a beautiful back drop to the already gorgeous landscaped and irrigated gardens and doubles as an excellent close- to-home extended play area should the need arise to extend beyond the already impressively large allotment. Double auto entry garaging with internal entry and drive through capacity are complimented by loads of extra off street parking, with space for a caravan or boat should this be your desire. There is also room to allow the very handy option of driving your vehicles in to the property, then turn them around completely to enable you to directly drive out without needing to reverse out into the street.
The home itself is just beautiful. To say it sparkles would be something of an understatement and it is extremely rare to find a home that presents this well. The owners have meticulously maintained the home and kept it up to date. The modern home feeling as one enters the home is somewhat unexpected, with quality in both design and use of materials and appliances being immediately obvious.
The home comprises three double bedrooms, the master with his and hers built in robes and a generous en suite, and the minor bedrooms with quality built in robes. A huge laundry with fantastic storage is another great feature of the home. Great design is so important, and the clever positioning of the main living and sleeping / utility areas so they can be easily isolated from each other is both easy on the eye and very noise and energy efficient. This is especially apparent given the zoned and ducted reverse cycle air conditioning powered by a fantastic combination of solar panels and storage battery. Remarkably, the real bonus of this efficient design and utility shows with the energy "costs" for this home. They are in fact running at a consistent yearly credit!
The internal living areas are spacious and the home has a very restful ambience, with a combination of high ceilings, down lighting and beautiful natural light afforded by the excellent orientation of the home and the use of real timber veneer and quality tile flooring. Again the design works brilliantly, with formal dining subtly separate from the main living area by a change from tile to timber flooring, a change in levels and vaulted ceilings. The stunning centrally located kitchen is beautifully equipped with both high quality appliances and loads of cupboard space (including a WIP). Loads of Caeserstone bench top with an extended breakfast bar on the end of the island bench overlook the main internal living area, and just a short distance through patio doors is a fabulous all weather alfresco living / dining area with heating and cooling and beautiful night lighting, not to mention the stunning and private outlook over the gardens.
There are many more aspects to this home that only an inspection will do justice to, however a couple should be mentioned and they include a quality alarm system, a constant supply gas hot water system, and a garden shed for your gardening tools etc.
In the interests of ensuring a wide range of prospective buyers get the opportunity to inspect this lovely home prior to its sale, the vendors preference is that any offers be presented to them after the completion of the first advertised open inspection. They do reserve the right however to accept an offer at any time throughout the marketing process.
