Rising and retreating into the greenery of its Aldgate setting, this thoughtfully reimagined 1970s home offers a generous, immersive expression of the Hills escape, with room to gather, space to disappear and two covered excuses to take whatever you're doing outside.
Built C1974 on a far-reaching 1934sqm parcel, this four-bedroom residence has grown into its setting through a series of inspired updates, retaining its sturdy original bones while opening its living spaces to the greenery beyond.
Architectural skylights draw daylight through the expansive lounge, where engineered timber floors, a wood-burning fire and an artful feature wall give this bright, airy and social space a rare sense of warmth and individuality.
Shaker-style cabinetry gives the kitchen a familiar country inflection, sharpened by stone benchtops and a substantial island, while the oversized vintage style cooker and butler's pantry make practical provision for anyone inclined to feed a full house.
Throw back the timber-framed bifold door and the invitation extends to a pitched-roof pavilion with tall timber-lined ceilings, heating and an eagle-eyed view across the canopy and onto the horizon.
A separate sitting room offers a quieter place to read, listen or fire up the work laptop, opening to a brick-paved terrace where climbing greenery and garden steps give this second covered setting a character entirely its own.
Four bedrooms follow their own quieter course, with an ensuite, walk-in robe and separate dressing room giving the main a generous measure of independence, while three further bedrooms share a bathroom.
Outside, pockets of lawn, thick planting and a gazebo reward a closer look, creating a setting children can make an expedition of and green thumbs can happily spend years getting to know.
What has sprouted is a home with more than a fresh interior, offering room to grow together, space to retreat and a garden that ensures the view from inside is only ever half the story, just a fleeting moment from Aldgate, Stirling and the CBD itself. Stay forever.
