26 Gladstone Road

North Brighton SA 5048

Its size could make it clunky and expensive to run, yet it lives like a dream thanks to clever minimalist landscaping, an automated watering system, central vacuuming, incredible storage, robust high-end selections such as stone benchtops, a double-glazed upper level and 11 kilowatts of bill-blasting solar on the roof.

Pass through the soaring verticality of the front door and the super-wide hallway sweeps away to its glittering blue conclusion, practical concrete-look tiling flowing stylishly underfoot porch to pool.

But before you dip your toe in the water, allow your eager eyes to take in the media room, double garage, study, powder room, laundry and the staircase's sculptural open tread ahead of the entertaining nexus, where corner-converging bi-folds call on extra structural steel for seamless indoor-outdoor mingling on an epic scale.

Together, the north-facing open plan and fully enclosable alfresco with outdoor kitchen account for a third of the home's total area. Such space, such freedom demands nothing less than a 4.5m island bench - a three-sided, platter-sharing perch at one end, a sink- and dishwasher-blessed butler's pantry at the other.

Krix speakers, gas pebble fire, automated blinds, overhead strip heaters, spa bench, stunning garden art and lighting schemes; feel free to create your own entertaining magic.

And so, to bed A vast third living area, walk-in linen press and four king/queen bedrooms, each plying a walk-in robe, cash in on all that space upstairs; the main, a masterclass in 5-star sophistication with its private treetop balcony, superb behind-bed storage and open-plan ensuite chasing personal relaxation with a freestanding bathtub, large shower, double vanity and separate toilet.

To other perks schools at walking reach, Jetty Road eateries and commuter trains at a stroll, Foodland in the very next street, the Bay and Westfield Marion both at close call; North Brighton gives you everything you've ever wanted and more.
