Last Listing description (August 2025)
Tucked away in a peaceful, bird-filled valley yet just minutes from local conveniences, this architect-designed residence in Eden Hills offers a rare blend of tranquillity, privacy, and 1970s design flair. Set on a generous 2,822sqm (approx.) bushland allotment with distant sea views, the home is both a secluded retreat and a practical, welcoming space for modern family life.
Designed and built in 1972 by the current owner - an architect, the home spans three levels and is a striking example of the era's architectural language. It features varied clinker bricks, exposed beams, solid strawboard and timber detailing, and rare thatched ceilings, which are seldom seen today. The design celebrates light and space, with expansive glass panels and floor-to-ceiling windows in the living, dining, and lounge areas creating a seamless connection to the surrounding bushland. Natural light fills the interiors, and the use of organic materials infuses warmth and a sense of calm throughout.
Upstairs, three bedrooms offer serene treetop outlooks, with the main suite also capturing glimpses of the sea. These rooms are connected via an external balcony, ideal for enjoying the sunset or simply soaking in the peace and stillness of the setting. The home's thoughtful placement on a sloping block ensures there are no windows facing the street, preserving a sense of total privacy. Upon arrival, visitors are met with a dramatic reveal as the grand double doors open to showcase the home's unique architectural character.
A separate structure on the property accommodates a double carport, a versatile rumpus room, and an additional flexible space, perfectly suited as a home office, creative studio, or yoga retreat. Outdoor living is just as refined, with two decks designed for both private relaxation and alfresco entertaining. A gas-heated spa is privately tucked away in a garden nook, offering a peaceful escape nestled among the native plantings. The re-landscaped creek enhances the sense of serenity, winding through beautifully maintained gardens that have been cultivated with a strong focus on sustainability and the local environment.
Fire safety has been thoughtfully addressed, with rooftop sprinklers, a fire pump, two rainwater tanks, and hose fittings that allow for drawing water from the spa if required. The property has been carefully nurtured to encourage native wildlife, including visits from koalas, and reflects a deep respect for the natural surroundings.
The home's location combines tranquillity with convenience. Public transport, local schools, and essential amenities are all within easy walking distance. Adelaide's CBD is just a 25-minute drive, while Flinders University and Flinders Medical Centre are less than 10 minutes away by car.
This is more than a home - it is a sanctuary that unites timeless architectural vision with modern-day functionality, offering a lifestyle that is at once peaceful, connected, and deeply harmonious with nature.
