"ROCHESTER HOUSE" - Landmark Opulence on 2 Titles with Parterre Garden Formality & Elite 5-car Garaging With a David Cheney Stamp of Perfection

It stands as a testament to the imposing, Victorian grandeur the building master craftsman David Cheney was renowned for ? and this 4-bedroom landmark design is rewarded with pride of place against the River Red Gums and nature playgrounds of Knightsbridge Reserve.

And if ever an iconic manor could give the discerning eastern suburb's buyer the reassurance of charm, security, David's passion for classic architecture, and a dream school run to Adelaide's most coveted schools, it's Rochester House.

You'll awe over the intricacy and conciseness of every detail: the tessellated tiling, arched leadlight windows, double brick construction, elaborate plasterwork, parquetry floors, towering 4m (approx.) ceilings, and bay window outlooks to incomparable Parterre-style gardens.

The timeless design advocates effortless indoor and outdoor entertaining with exquisite formal living and dining room connection, a gourmet, heart-of-home chef's kitchen with sightlines and spill to an all-weather alfresco, enraptured by the enormous central courtyard's lush, tranquil borders.

Front and rear wings divide dinner parties from family downtime; the 3-bedroom finale, sharing the home's 3rd bathroom, is also privy to the feature-lit garden ambience.

Exclusively yours, the upstairs master wing meets every palatial expectation; what you won't expect, is the calm you feel opening those terrace doors to Rochester's leafy treetops.

You'll also savour the walk-in and built-in robed storage, the luxurious ensuite, and the regal office retreat offering all due respite for the executive or as somewhere to display a lifetime of reading.

For enduring quality, there is no substitute for Rochester's opulence.
