Overview

Set on a generous hillside allotment exceeding 1,900 square meters, this thoughtfully designed two-storey home offers a seamless blend of comfort, sustainability, and stunning panoramic views. Positioned to capture sweeping vistas across Encounter Bay, The Bluff, Victor Harbor, and the surrounding hills, every living space is enhanced by natural light and a connection to the remarkable landscape.

The upper level centres around a light-filled open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area that opens onto an expansive balcony—an ideal setting for entertaining or simply enjoying the scenic outlook. The contemporary kitchen is well-equipped with sleek cabinetry, a gas cooktop, dishwasher, and ample bench space, ensuring practical functionality for daily living.

Downstairs houses two generously sized bedrooms alongside a stylish family bathroom and laundry, providing a comfortable and private living environment. The home’s design integrates energy efficiency with a 6.1-star rating, featuring double glazing, extensive insulation, passive solar orientation, and ceiling fans. Additionally, the roof's orientation and pitch are optimized to facilitate a future solar installation, reflecting a commitment to sustainable living.

The property's scope for growth is significant, with original plans for a future extension over the carport that could create additional living spaces or a master suite, catering to changing needs over time. The cleared area above the home offers potential for a studio, workshop, or guest accommodation, appealing to those seeking creative or hobby spaces.

Privacy and ease of access are established through a gently winding driveway, a carport, paved turning circle, and attractive bluestone retaining walls, while town water and sewer connections combined with irrigated natural landscaping ensure low-maintenance living. This residence suits those looking for a peaceful home or lifestyle retreat with room to evolve, where everyday life is enriched by impressive natural views and spacious outdoor areas.
