"Please wait at the top of the driveway until directed down"
With gum-studded views stretching from Happy Valley Reservoir to Port Adelaide, Yorke Peninsula and back again, 'Marwood' - the architectural crowd pleaser with a pool, resort vibe and a track record for throwing the ultimate party - gives new, beautiful meaning to isolation, just 35 minutes from the CBD.
Set near the crest of its 20-acres (approx.), this solar-powered, solid brick 4-bedroom home was ingeniously designed to inhale the best possible panorama of Adelaide's northern plains and coastline beyond.
Set over two levels, it's an extensively upgraded abode that cleverly allocates a wing to each family member - including a lower level with external access, living room, bedroom, bathroom, cellar and the scope for a kitchenette. Hello, AirBnB.
Lofty raked ceilings, expansive cedar-framed windows, textured brick walls and solid timber floors piece together a home of multiple living zones - not to mention a master wing with its own study/baby nursery, walk-in robe and one of your three sleek, upgraded bathrooms.
With thick granite tops, Miele appliances (including steam oven and induction cooktop), soft close drawers, large appliance cupboard with pocket doors, breakfast bar and a big serve of that view, the kitchen is the best upgrade of all - and the undisputed centrepiece at the heart of an upper level that steps out and onto a north-facing terrace.
Stand on the terrace and take it all in; the view over the coastline, sunsets, twinkling lights over the plains as night falls. A drought resistant property that draws inquisitive kangaroos to its fence line and leaves so much room left over for its extensive shedding/garaging/parking, solar-heated swims and some of the best parties you'll ever throw.
