Embraced by the gum-studded beauty of Stonyfell, 161 Penfold Road presents a picturesque contemporary residence that perfectly captures the tranquillity of its foothills setting. Wonderfully maintained and thoughtfully designed by its original one-family owners, this high-functioning haven delivers impressive liveability today with exciting scope to refurbish and re-inspire into your dream lifestyle address.
Anchored by a solid triple-brick base and light-filled blueprint, this deceptively spacious home unfolds across a versatile footprint designed for effortless family living. Step inside to discover soaring pitched and rafted ceilings that crown the open-plan living, dining, and original kitchen - a radiant heart of the home framed by end-to-end windows and glass sliders opening onto a beautiful timber-decked alfresco, where morning light, afternoon breeze, and foothills serenity blend in perfect harmony.
A private master wing enjoys WIR and ensuite comfort, while a second family area or kids' retreat complements 2 cosy bedrooms with shared WIR and spotless bathroom. Adding another layer of lifestyle flexibility, a separate granny flat or studio bedroom complete with kitchenette and bathroom extends incredible versatility, instantly providing the ideal space for larger families, multi-generational living, or inspired home office ambitions.
Below, a full lower-level mirrors much of the home above, offering up to five adaptable rooms that redefine what "space" truly means. From playrooms and creative studios for kids, to a dedicated wine cellar with trapdoor access from the second living; this is a property that evolves with your every need and scope to redesign to your personal flavour.
Resting peacefully on a pristine 1,060sqm (approx.) parcel enveloped in leafy tranquillity, yet moments from elite schooling, boutique buzz of Burnside Village, vibrant energy of The Parade Norwood, and the CBD just a 10-minute zip away… this is an address that effortlessly balances privacy, prestige, and exciting possibility.
