Perched high above the road, tucked into the hillside and wrapped in the changing colours of the Stirling treetops, 'Castellane' feels like a chapter torn from the French countryside and quietly rewritten for the Adelaide Hills.
The road disappears and its storybook facade appears, rendered in subtle texture, defined by it soaring stature and softened by pale blue windows shutters framing Juliet windows.
Step inside and the European cues continue. Terracotta tile floors ground the lower level, soaking up the sun and lending a lived-in warmth to this periodically updated home.
The solid timber kitchen-complete with induction cooktop, butler's pantry, dishwasher and breakfast bar- anchors the heart of the home, flowing effortlessly into adjoining dining and lounge spaces.
At its core, a sunken lounge-the soul of the home- warmed by a Nectre combustion fire and framed by a wide bay window with a built-in seat made for reading, dreaming, or watching the trees change colour across the seasons.
Upstairs, three bedrooms tuck into the pitched roofline. The master suite stands apart-cathedral ceilings overhead, natural light throughout, built-in robes and a renewed ensuite that feels both timeless and fresh.
Terraced outdoor areas meet the home with a natural cadence, stepping up from a paved patio - featuring a Buschbeck pizza oven - onto soft lawns and fire pit zone. Places to pause, contemplate, cook, gather, eat and play.
Above the oversized, separate double garage is a two-bedroom studio that answers a dozen different briefs. AirBnB income, independent teen, multigenerational living, creative retreat-take your pick. With open-plan living, a functional kitchen, vaulted ceilings and its own bathroom, it's a fully-fledged second home wrapped up in 60 seconds of elevation.
And while the setting feels like a world away, it's not. Stirling Village is three minutes up the road. The Tollgate? Ten. So you get the best of both worlds: the stillness of the hills, with the city just a turn of the key away.
