Say hello to a home with presence. Nestled peacefully by the foothills in Highbury's tightly held Wicks Estate, this impressive two-storey residence is big, warm and wonderfully inviting, with grand interiors, multiple places to come together and an outdoor setup that makes a very convincing case for spending summer at home.
The entrance sets the scene. Step into a grand foyer where soaring 3 metre vaulted ceilings, ornate cornices and ceiling roses immediately bring a sense of grandeur and character, with these beautiful details continuing across both levels. Polished porcelain tiles and floating floors carry you through the home, where a formal lounge, separate dining room and generous family living area give everyone plenty of room to spread out.
At the heart of it all is a kitchen that was made for a full house. Shaker-style cabinetry is paired with stone benchtops and stainless steel Smeg appliances, including double electric wall ovens and a gas cooktop. There's an abundance of storage and preparation space, whether you're tackling the weeknight dinner rush or feeding a crowd.
And when everyone does come over, outside has you well and truly covered. The large undercover alfresco overlooks a pristine salt-chlorinated swimming pool, complete with solar heating and surrounded by established, easy-care gardens. Long lunches, afternoon swims and summer BBQs that roll into the evening all feel right at home here.
Then there's the independent games room and pool house, and this one earns its keep. Bifold doors open up the space, while floating floors, a vaulted ceiling and ornate cornices tie it beautifully back to the main home. Teenagers' retreat, games room, gym, work-from-home setup or simply another place to entertain, it's a brilliant bonus.
Back inside, a separate study gives you even more flexibility as an additional bedroom if needed, while a ground-floor bathroom, spacious laundry and double garage take care of the practical side. The kitchen, bathrooms and laundry were all updated in September 2025, giving some of the home's hardest-working spaces a fresh new chapter.
Upstairs is where things slow down. Four bedrooms with ceiling fans include a grand master suite with walk-in robe and ensuite, complete with double vanity, stone benchtops, heated flooring and an anti-fog lighted vanity mirror. Three of the remaining bedrooms have built-in robes, while electric roller shutters add another layer of comfort to the rear bedrooms.
The main bathroom follows suit with stone benchtops, heated flooring, an anti-fog lighted mirror and a statement freestanding bathtub. There's also a cosy landing opening onto the balcony, where stunning views towards the Adelaide Hills make for a pretty special backdrop.
Grand without feeling overdone and substantial without losing its warmth, this is a home designed for family life on a bigger scale, all wrapped up in a peaceful Highbury foothills setting.
