Perched high on an impressive 1,488sqm allotment and surrounded by lush established gardens, this beautiful 1926 bungalow delivers an exceptional combination of character, scale, privacy and lifestyle in sought-after Glen Osmond.
Evoking the relaxed elegance of a Queenslander, the home is framed by generous verandahs and covered outdoor spaces, with soaring ornate ceilings of approximately 3.3 metres, beautiful bay windows, French doors and original fireplaces preserving the romance of its era. The exceptional ceiling height enhances the sense of space throughout and is a striking point of difference rarely found in modern homes.
At the heart of the home is an expansive, light-filled living and dining space of remarkable proportions. A magnificent feature fireplace anchors the room, while oversized windows draw in natural light and glass French doors open to the covered verandah, capturing elevated views across the city. To the rear, further French doors provide a seamless connection to the outdoor entertaining area, gardens and swimming pool.
The adjoining kitchen is equally generous, featuring granite benchtops, a substantial island bench, gas cooking and an abundance of workspace, creating a natural hub for family life and entertaining.
Four generous bedrooms provide excellent family accommodation, including beautiful front rooms enhanced by ornate bay windows and fireplaces. The master suite enjoys its own walk-in robe, ensuite and French doors opening directly onto the verandah.
The home's scale is complemented by exceptional flexibility. A separate studio with polished concrete floors, its own bathroom and private entrance is ideal as guest accommodation or a creative space, while the lower level provides a substantial teenagers' retreat with independent access. A separate office offers an excellent work-from-home environment away from the main residence.
Outside, the lifestyle offering is every bit as impressive. A tiled in-ground swimming pool is surrounded by paved entertaining areas and established greenery, while a charming gazebo tucked within the garden provides another beautiful place to relax or entertain. Mature palms, lawns and meandering garden spaces create a wonderful sense of discovery, with plenty of room for children to explore.
Privacy is another standout feature. The home is independently positioned within its substantial grounds, with approximately 40 metres separating the main living areas from the nearest neighbouring residence, creating a wonderfully peaceful and secluded environment.
Parking is equally exceptional. In addition to the four-car under cover garaging, the expansive driveway and parking areas provide capacity for more than 10 vehicles, offering a level of flexibility rarely found in homes of this character and location.
With approximately 342sqm of internal living, extensive covered outdoor areas and a 6.7kW solar system, this is a home of rare proportions - combining the grace and character of the 1920s with the space, versatility and practical comforts demanded by modern family life.
Families will also appreciate the highly desirable school zoning, with the property currently zoned for Linden Park Primary School and Glenunga International High School, adding further appeal to an already exceptional Glen Osmond address.
Set against the foothills in one of Adelaide's most desirable eastern suburbs, 9 Gill Terrace is a truly special family estate - private, character-filled and designed to be enjoyed on a grand scale.
