Held by the same owner since it was built in 1971, this Turner Wood original has spent more than half a century growing into its Glenalta setting. Now, for the first time ever, it's ready to change hands.
Fifty-five years in the making - and every bit worth the wait.
Tucked behind layered gardens, this split-level, double brick showpiece is mid-century escapism in full flight. Soaring raked ceilings, polished floorboards, rich timber panelling, and statement pendants set the tone, while walls of glass pull greenery, light, and treetop views deep inside.
Double doors make an entrance, opening to an elevated walkway connecting three generous bedrooms. The main claims its own ensuite, while the family bathroom goes gloriously retro with burnt-orange detailing still owning its era.
Step down and living hits its stride.
A formal lounge gathers around a statement copper fireplace and brick hearth before an open-plan living and dining takes the baton. Bright, expansive, and wrapped in glass, it's made even better by a wide balcony stretching the length of the living areas – your front-row seat to long lunches, late drinks, and treetop sunsets.
Overseeing it all, an updated kitchen knows how to hold court. Marble benchtops meet a suite of Smeg appliances, while a wide servery becomes a natural epicentre. An oversized laundry sits close by, with enough space and storage to easily earn its keep as a butler's pantry.
And there's still another level to play with.
A lower-floor rumpus room is the wildcard – retreat, games room, studio, teenage territory, home office, or something entirely your own. Backed by extensive under-house storage, this layout has always understood the value of extra space.
A paved terrace disappears into towering gums, lush lawn, established beds, herb garden, and a glorious stretch of wisteria. It's big, beautiful, and built for the kind of childhood that happens outside – morning coffee for you, tree climbing for them, twilight cartwheels for whoever still has it in them.
Ducted evaporative cooling, irrigation, rainwater, and a carport keep the practical side covered.
The location does the rest. Dunns Reserve and Minno Reserve are around the corner, Belair National Park puts weekend trails practically on your doorstep, Glenalta train station makes the commute a breeze, and Blackwood's cafés, shopping, and amenities are only minutes from home. Jean Bonython Kindergarten, St John's Grammar, Belair Primary, and Blackwood High, Concordia College's St Peters Campus, and Scotch and Mercedes Colleges keep schooling equally well covered.
Mid-century by design, forever home by nature – you'll never want to leave.
