Designed by architect Andrew McPhee in 1963, extended 1983, and beloved by one family since the day the keys were handed over, 6 Aerial Road is no ordinary Belair home.
It's a bona fide mid-century showpiece.
Built to work with the natural rise and fall of its 1201sqm parcel rather than trying to tame it, this sprawling split-level home lets its architecture do the talking. Exposed brick meets western red cedar, soaring raked ceilings draw the eye skyward, pendant and sconce lighting set the mood, and walls of glass pull Belair's greenery into every frame.
An expansive lounge takes its place amongst the treetops, wrapping around the warmth of an open fireplace for winter nights done properly. A lower floor family zone gives everyday life another place to land, creating the separation modern families chase without ever losing connection.
Holding court between the living zones, a central kitchen makes its role in the floorplan clear. Generous proportions and extensive storage give it solid foundations, while central placement keeps conversation and everyday life flowing.
When it's time to switch off, the slumber zones come into their own.
A generously scaled main bedroom claims built-in robes, a study nook, and easy proximity to the main bathroom, while the additional bedrooms spread themselves across the layout rather than bunching together. Two share their own floor with a second bathroom, while a spiral staircase sends another retreat upstairs to a level entirely of its own. Kids, guests, teenagers, creatives pick your occupant.
Outside, Belair takes over.
Gently sloping grounds tumble beneath established gums, wrapping the home in the kind of leafy privacy only time can create. Kids can disappear into games beneath the trees, Christmas lunch can stretch well beyond sunset on the terrace, and when you catch a glimpse of the city lights glimmering in the distance, you'll remember exactly why people move to the hills in the first place.
A carport and additional off-street parking make arrivals and departures easy, while split-system air conditioning, irrigation, under-house storage, and a cellar cover the practicalities.
And then there's the location. Hiking trails and Belair National Park put weekend walks and bike rides on cue, Banana Boogie sorts the morning coffee and pastry run, the Belair Hotel has dinner covered when the kitchen gets the night off, and Belair, Blackwood, and Mitcham Square collectively take care of coffee, groceries, movies, and everything in between. Belair Primary, Blackwood High, St John's Grammar, and leading private schools are all within easy reach, while Pinera railway station, regular bus links, and a 20-minute drive to the CBD keep city life comfortably connected.
A home this special deserves another great chapter - this your invitation to write it.
