Situated on the second of St Peters highly sought after avenues amongst some of Adelade’s most prestigious homes and within walking distance to St Peters College, this up to the minute reawakening offers all the elements luxury buyers expect of a home of this calibre.
ENTRANCE, FORMAL LIVING AND STUDY
Framed by a sandstone wall and picturesque plantings, the captivating symmetrical façade with lace trimmed veranda belies the scale of the interior. An aggregate driveway stretches beneath steel cloisters to a three-car garage concealed behind vertical battens.
Inside, an expanded living room introduces the curated fusion of traditional and modern.
Adorned by soaring ceilings with deep coving, wide engineered oak floors, a designer chandelier and gas fireplace with custom brass surround, this jaw-dropping entrance creates a fluid connection to the extra wide light flooded central hallway that reaches past family accommodation towards distant open plan living.
Tucked behind a stunning curved Venetian plaster wall is a private workspace with a floating desk and shelving.
PRIMARY SUITE
Reaching the pinnacle of indulgent living is the palatial hotel style primary sanctuary that sweeps past a glamorous walk-in dressing room to the lavish ensuite with heated floors, marble clad double vanity, freestanding tub and a curved micro cement blade wall concealing a shower and WC.
Automated blinds glide back to reveal a wall of windows with sliders that step out to a secluded side garden oasis. A deck edged by lawn, magnolia and box hedging provides a private bypass connection to the pool.
BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS
High-end living continues with a huge second bedroom suite perfect for guests or lucky older child, complete with walk-in robe and ensuite with a shower wall on which to perch.
Two more king-size bedrooms reflect the high bar already set, with both featuring a wall of built-in robes.
The family bathroom also with heated floors incorporates a soaring skylight and bath, whilst a generous guest powder room features a floating marble vanity.
WINE ROOM
Designed for the serious connoisseur, the wine room is the ultimate display case for the collector to showcase and share their collection.
Encased behind glass and steel with banquette seating, a marble serving station and a curved ceiling reminiscent of a wine barrel, the room is temperature controlled by a commercial grade wine cooler and insulation. A wall of wire racking will hold and display well over 500 bottles of the very best.
EXPANSIVE OPEN PLAN LIVING
The pièce de rèsistance is without doubt monumental open plan living and its seamless connection to outdoor living.
Of outstanding design and specification, this breathtaking family entertainer’s hub is bathed in light from clerestory windows and wrap around glass, punctuated by a contemporary marble fireplace with integrated TV above and feature shelving with brass slider.
Both a triumph of conceptual design and a functional workspace, the kitchen showcases stunning Breccia marble with a vast island centrepiece.
Custom joinery incorporating a full range of integrated Miele appliances wraps into the enormous butler’s pantry that in effect functions as a second kitchen, perfect for catered events.
OUTDOOR LIVING
A soaring extended curve connects the house to the wow factor resort style entertainer’s pavilion. Big enough for lounging and dining, it also includes an outdoor kitchen with BBQ, pizza oven & sink.
From there, gaze over landscaped plantings or plunge into the idyllic heated pool that lights up at night, with an outdoor shower nearby.
