A bold, edgy statement in family living; suburban bliss, just a stroll from Scotch College.
Stripped right back to its bare 1960s bones and painstakingly recast to make it an entirely new proposition, this dynamic two-level home strikes a bold figure against its tranquil foothills setting, making it a true standout on arguably Torrens Park's most sought-after address.
From its head-turning facade to its rear in-ground heated pool and showroom garage with its very own European sauna, bathroom, gym and room for four 'pride and joys', you might just ask for the paperwork well before you even step inside this dynamic 4-5-bedroom home on the brink of esteemed Scotch College.
Inside, polished concrete floors, monochromatic tones, high ceilings and prolific use of jarrah and glass paint an ultra-modern picture with dashes of 'industrial chic' to strike memorable contrast with the softness of its lush surroundings.
It's all about open-plan living on the ground floor, combining a sublime stone-topped kitchen with smooth transition to the ensuited guest bedroom, a second living zone/home office and a timber decked patio shaded by a beautiful elm.
If the kids aren't in the pool, playing cricket on the lawn or exploring nearby Brown Hill Creek, chances are they'll be enjoying the refuge of the retreat of an upper level featuring a lavish main bedroom with a walk-in robe and an ensuite defined by its moody black tiling.
Wake up, wind back the curtain and let the serenity of that rear yard roll over you; the perfect start to another glorious day in a home that puts the CBD within a 15-minute drive and feels like a world away. You're welcome.
