Originally built as a summer home for Priscilla Bickford, this rare slice of South Australian history in a prized location provides all the grandeur and privacy you desire within walking distance of Stirling village.
Framed by landscaped gardens and towering pines upon its 6508m2 allotment, the original architecture of the commanding two-storey brick residence begins with a grand staircase to a gabled front portico and sweeping verandahs.
Inside, the home offers five bedrooms/four bedrooms and a study, three bathrooms plus two powder rooms, four living spaces (including a billiard room and a formal lounge), three dining spaces, and seemingly endless sunrooms and balconies.
The last decade has seen the English style home returned to its former glory while carried into the contemporary era. Enter a grand hall onto spectacular original terrazzo floors and take in striking American oak panelling and a dramatic staircase, picture windows and lofty ceilings.
This grand residence has been rewired and replumbed, its oak panels and teak floors polished, and its chandeliers and grand fireplaces (too many to count) lovingly restored.
It has enjoyed the addition of a contemporary country kitchen/casual meals zone with marble benchtops, a stylish adjacent family/dining space, and two fully refurbished modern bathrooms with luxurious tiling and freestanding bathtubs.
Upstairs, small tweaks to the floorplan ensure bedrooms fuse the best of the home's original charm with modern comfort. Overlooking the sweeping gravel drive, the huge main bedroom includes a chic dressing room and large ensuite, while two more generous bedrooms offer abundant storage and their own private balcony spaces.
Within Kincraig, there are surprises everywhere you look, from a lift and hidden internal staircase, to a cellar and library.
