Just like the solar heated pool you didn't see coming, this freshly rebooted classic goes about its quiet business in a gum-studded valley with the peace and sense of isolation to defy its near-city locale.
By 'near city' we mean no more than 25-minutes in the Mazda from Adelaide's hip East End to the doorstep of a 4-bedroom home so extensively and expertly updated, it's as a good as new in a setting that will never get old.
Rendered in a clean, bright white; its strong bones are the only remnants of a 1970s home that now puts a premium on open-plan living - and pieces it all together with Tasmanian oak floors, lofty raked ceilings and state-of-the-art lighting.
Not a crumb has been dropped on this monochromatic kitchen boasting subway tile splashbacks, stone tops, Smeg appliances, timber cabinetry in a striking black, bar/butler's nook, and a front row seat to the split level living at its feet.
Separated only by glass balustrading and a subtle drop, the dining zone and lounge room below combine with the kitchen to star in a flexible, crowd-pleasing floorplan.
And it's a floorplan that extends to a patio/pergola yearning for a glory vine and summer brunches, as well as a wing dedicated to all four bedrooms - including a big master boasting a wall-to-floor bank of built-in storage and an ensuite with full-height tiling.
As for the fully tiled in-ground pool that hides in its own timber-decked enclosure; those gums ensure every swim comes with the most Australian of backdrops. Welcome or Montacute.
