Big skies, rolling hills, and room to do absolutely everything or nothing at all. Sprawled across 28.76 postcard-perfect acres in the heart of Lenswood, 217 Harris Road is your ticket to a life less ordinary.
At its heart, a substantial C1977 double-brick homestead makes the most of its magnificent surrounds. Mid-century character runs deep, with soaring ceilings, exposed stone, and rich timber panelling layering warmth, texture, and scale, while picture windows frame garden views at every turn.
An expansive sitting room gets things underway, anchored by a oil heater, before flowing into a sweeping open-plan living and dining domain with another oil heater of its own. At the heart of it all, an updated kitchen brings the best of both worlds, pairing stone benchtops, stainless-steel Westinghouse appliances, and a corner pantry with the nostalgia of a traditional wood stove.
The flexibility doesn't stop there. A versatile side rumpus room gives hobbies or playtime their own address, while an enclosed rear sunroom offers another spot to unwind.
Two generous bedrooms, both with built-in robes, take care of downtime, sharing a family bathroom, while a separate laundry and additional guest powder room keep the practicalities firmly in check.
But there's another ace up its sleeve.
A fully self-contained extension brings a whole new dimension to the floorplan, connecting seamlessly with the main residence or closing off for complete independence. Complete with solid timber features, a spacious living area, its own kitchen and wood stove, two robed bedrooms, and a bathroom with laundry facilities, it's a ready-made answer to multigenerational living, extended family stays, or simply having more room to do life your way.
Outside, two entertaining areas make the most of the scenery, whether it's long lunches in the sunshine, drinks as the day winds down, or simply sitting back and letting the grounds work their magic. Stone-tiered gardens and a sweeping of lawn bring lush, established greenery into the picture, with birdsong and visiting wildlife providing the soundtrack.
And beyond, the acreage is yours to embrace.
Gum-studded paddocks stretch out, dams add another layer of rural appeal, and extensive shedding gives the tools, toys, and weekend projects a place of their own. A few four-legged friends, a hobby farm in the making, or simply the luxury of having all that land to call your own the possibilities are as wide as the landscape itself.
And for all its beautiful seclusion, the rest of the world is never far away. Lenswood, Woodside, and Lobethal put shopping, cafés, sporting facilities, and schooling options within easy reach, wineries beckon in every direction, and Adelaide's CBD is just 45 minutes away.
More land, more life, more reasons to never look back 217 Harris Road is ready when you are.
