Tucked into the leafy surrounds of Blackwood, this expansive colonial-style home brings together the space a growing family needs, the warmth of a classic foothills home and the flexibility to accommodate life at every stage. With four bedrooms under the main roof, and a fifth within the self-contained flat, there's room for everyone to settle in and make themselves at home.
The location captures all that makes Blackwood so sought-after, feeling wonderfully removed from the daily bustle while bridging both Belair and Blackwood townships. Just footsteps from Glenalta train station and the beauty of Watiparinga Reserve, it's a setting where leafy walks, local cafés and the convenience of everyday essentials are all part of the picture.
Inside, a central kitchen, living and dining hub strikes the right balance between open connection and defined spaces. Hardwood floors and a combustion fireplace bring warmth to the heart of the home, while picture windows draw in the garden surrounds. The master bedroom enjoys its own walk-in robe and ensuite, with three further bedrooms, all with built-in robes, sharing access to the main bathroom.
Sliding doors open to outdoor entertaining beneath a pitched pergola, where ceiling fans make long lunches and warm evenings all the more comfortable. Beyond, a sun-soaked deck looks across the tiered gardens to the gorgeous valley beyond, with hardly a neighbour in sight except for the resident koalas of course.
A generous, level lawn below offers plenty of room for backyard cricket, play equipment, and all the happy chaos that comes with family life, all within a fully fenced perimeter.
Adding exceptional flexibility, the separate flat comes completely self-sufficient, with its own bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living, patio, garage and hot water system. Ideal for extended family, older teenagers, visiting guests or setting up a home-based business, it gives this already spacious property another valuable dimension.
Set on a 1,888sqm parcel (approx.), there's room for family life in all its forms - all with leafy garden surrounds, generous entertaining and the added benefit of independent living.
