Space, space and more space! North facing, manageable acres, great separation of the master wing from children's bedrooms, a home theatre (or sixth bedroom!), voluminous open-plan living, rustic-inspired cabinetry, plenty of outdoor entertaining options on decks and in the established garden... and a two-bay shed with separate storage bay and lined retreat to boot. Blocks Road is a very private sanctuary just minutes from Birdwood and Onkaparinga Valley Road. At 224, a hilltop location brings valley and hills' views to the master bedroom, kitchen, living areas, secondary bedrooms and the multi-level decks that bracket the front of this angular house. Rear-facing windows enjoy lovely garden views and a hint of the terrace entertaining area that sits at the end of a rustically framed path from the southern (covered) barbecue deck. With the space and versatility to enjoy your own idea of the perfect lifestyle comes an abundance of natural light and the comfort of ducted air-conditioning, gas log fire and quality carpets in all bedrooms. The kitchen and meals area is always the heart of a country home and never more so than here, where instead of a traditional homestead position at the rear, it shares the fabulous outlook and sunshine that the living area boasts. Bespoke mini-orb and timber cabinetry, with very impressive redgum benchtops, wraps around the large, bay-windowed space. A redgum breakfast bar, German appliances (including concealed dishwasher), walk-in pantry, wine storage and informal dining space serve everyday needs, with the dining room only steps away for more formal occasions. The master suite is an outstanding feature of this 250+ sq metre home: North-facing windows (with access to the veranda), walk-through robe, en suite bathroom with spa and custom cabinetry. Completing this wing of 'parental privilege' is - if you really don't need six bedrooms - an adjoining room for use as a private office or study. Of strong appeal is the living area, the second, bay-windowed pivot of the home. With heaps of room for different furnishing layouts, this can be a space for the whole family to enjoy without getting underfoot. The property's 6 acres are well set up for easy maintenance and the joys of country living. Electric gate entry brings the driveway up the gently rising front paddock to a circular turn-around and the generous 108 sq metre garage/machinery shed/workshop. The house and well established garden (which includes a stormwater-fed pond) sit almost at the centre of the block, which means maximum seclusion and the best of views. Fencing provides two paddocks as well as smaller yards for containing stock (the current owners have alpacas and Dorper sheep) and a separate implement shed with power and lighting. A degree of self-sustainability is also possible here, with an orchard (watered by the outfall of the Ri-Tank system), chook-yard, raised vegetable beds and the chance to cut meadow hay from the front paddock. The original design of this house clearly observed the role of space in the ideal country lifestyle. The way in which your family will use that space - and the land that surrounds it - could be your greatest and most productive adventure. • 2006 built contemporary home of 257 square metres living and 130 sqare metres veranda/pergola • 6 acres fenced as two paddocks • up to 6 bedrooms • master wing with spa en suite, walk-through robe and study/office or sitting room • home theatre (or bedroom) • separate dining • large open-plan living and family area • generous laundry with storage and external access • extensive multi-level decks (front and rear) with multiple entries to house • kitchen with bespoke cabinetry, Baumatic oven, island gas hob, Miele dishwasher, double sink, underbench winerack, walk-in pantry, breakfast bar • family bathroom with separate WC and vanity • ducted R/C air con • gas log fire in living • linen cupboard • 90,000litre rainwater storage • grey water to orchard • 6Kw solar PV • 108 sq m two-bay garage with concrete floor, light/power, lined retreat, extra storage bay • electric gate at driveway entrance • circular driveway • paved outdoor entertaining areas • established garden • separate implement shed with light/power • chicken shed and run • orchard and vegetable beds
