Carved into the Upper Sturt hillside and tucked peacefully away from the road, 83 Upper Sturt Road is a haven that embraces its surroundings at every turn.
Set across 2,159m² of lush grounds, a fluid family home flows seamlessly from Hebel façade to valley-facing rear outlooks. Picture windows and French doors draw the outdoors deep into every room, ensuring every vista feels like part of the home itself.
Inside, living zones invite retreat. A central family room, warmed by a roaring combustion heater, turns winter into a season to savour plus ducted air conditioning for summer comfort, while an oversized lounge is framed by concertina doors that peel back to let the views take centre stage. At the heart, an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, corner pantry, and breakfast bar keeps weekday routines smooth and entertaining effortless.
A generous central bedroom sits beside an updated family bathroom, while additional wings at either end bookend the footprint with total flexibility. To the east, the main bedroom adjoins a study/retreat and private ensuite; to the west, a mezzanine suite with private loft adapts perfectly as a flexible multigenerational accommodation area or a home office. A versatile bonus room completes the mix, ready to serve as a storage or utility room or bespoke wine cellar
Outside, the grounds are a world of their own. A showpiece deck invites long-table lunches under open skies, while tiered gardens and fruit trees tumble down the slope toward a cubby house and dam. It's a lifestyle that pays dividends - gardens flourish, wildlife returns, hide-and-seek tournaments prosper, and the seasons reward you with a living, breathing landscape that evolves and delights every year.
And while it feels like a private hideaway, the conveniences are never far away, with Upper Sturt General Store, Stirling, Crafers and Blackwood villages, quality schools, Belair National Park, and the Adelaide Hills wine region all just minutes away. Even the CBD is only 20 minutes down the freeway.
Even the suburbs start just 10 minutes away via the freeway tunnels (CBD only 20 minutes).
Secluded yet connected, private yet inviting, intimate yet expansive - this is hills living at its finest.
