Born from a sweeping corner site, the brief of its current custodians and the imagination of architect John Chappel, this landmark 1970s residence turned a rising foothills canvas into something immersive, ahead of its time and truly special.
That brief was guided by international influences and the free-thinking spirit of mid-century modernism. Chappel answered with a low-slung home that translates its sweeping, site-traversing silhouette into a beautifully resolved composition of subtly split levels.
Exposed beams, raked ceilings, terracotta quarry tile floors, bag-rendered brick, broad eaves, timber rails and vast glazing create a truly bespoke home, where Californian ease, Spanish earthiness and Adelaide Hills modernism meet in a way that could never be replicated today.
More than five decades later, the response to this challenging site still feels deeply relevant, with its western outlook, pool setting and seamless connection to the landscape providing a home that could be enjoyed exactly as is or carefully enhanced over time. Thank you, Mr Chappel. Thank you very much.
Open the Door To:
⁃ A rare 1970s architect-designed home by John Chappel, conceived for its distinct foothills site and elevated, western-facing orientation
⁃ A striking, low-slung red-brick facade that nods to Californian and Spanish influences
⁃ A flexible, split-level floorplan with multiple wings and levels
⁃ An astute design that carefully shields the interiors from harsh western sun while still pulling in garden outlooks and cross-ventilation
⁃ A family room and kitchen zone that opens to a secluded courtyard and pool beyond
⁃ A warm timber kitchen with wall oven, gas cooktop, tiled splashback, broad benches, double sink and granite benchtops
⁃ A parents' wing with bedroom, bathroom, study and private living area
⁃ Multiple verandahs, terraces and courtyard pockets that make the outdoors feel like part of the floorplan
⁃ Solar panels and solar pool heating that add modern sense to a home already designed with climate, shade and aspect in mind
⁃ Underfloor heating and ducted air conditioning comfort
⁃ Extensive under-house storage and cellar space, giving the home a practical hidden layer
⁃ Automatic garage doors, generous garaging and a dual driveway approach
⁃ A creek-side garden setting with established trees, brick paths, terraced spaces and the feeling of a house discovered
Set into the rise of Glen Osmond, the home balances bush seclusion with rare city proximity, catching a glimpse of the CBD before sending you there in around 10 minutes. Just a pause from Burnside Village, Frewville Foodland, Glenunga International High School (zoned for), Seymour, Mercedes and Scotch Colleges, and foothills hiking trails; a home that feels a world away…is far from it.
