5 Stimson Grove

Somerton Park SA 5044

A warm facade of brown brick and terracotta is set behind awe-inspiring oriental-inspired gardens that include mature bonsai trees. From a large covered porch, step into the cavernous formal lounge and take in lofty raked and beamed ceilings, timber wall cladding and views to the outdoor entertaining, revealed or concealed by electric blinds.

Continuing into the heart of the home, a dramatic open plan living space comes together between a sumptuous lounge set before a slate-wrapped fireplace, a formal dining space with feature cabinetry to showcase your best glassware, and a beautiful feature bar. Chic in tones of timber and leather, it's primed and ready for cocktail hour whenever the mood strikes.

Next door, an updated kitchen and casual dining includes a Miele induction cooktop, oven rangehood, dishwasher and microwave, with plenty of storage within timber cabinetry, and views over the pool and Alfresco.

Down the hall find the fourth bathroom, a spacious laundry and an inspired second wet bar designed for poolside happy hour. Partition windows connect it to the largest undercover entertaining area over random slate, fitted with a large outdoor kitchen that includes a BBQ and dual rangehoods.

Look forward to dining outdoors overlooking the swimming pool, wrapped in random slate and complemented by a raised spa for summer fun and winter fun alike. With multiple undercover spaces to place for your lounge or dining settings, take your pick.

Sleeping quarters can be found on the carpeted southern wing of the home, beginning with the huge main bedroom suite. Take in sweeping tiered curved floors, dramatic feature wall-to-wall built-in robes, and pool views. A very large well-appointed ensuite includes floor-to-ceiling tiling, a vast vanity and spa bath.

Along the hall, a large third living room or large bedroom creates options for your household, while at the end of the hall, the sixth bedroom makes for a excellent home office.

Filling the space between are four double bedrooms, each with built-in robes and garden views, and the largest with a surprising ensuite. You'll also find the large main bathroom, boasting a huge double vanity, a spa bath, and notable vintage style gold tapware.

Whether you revel in the decadent original design and more recent updates, or plan to stamp your signature, there's no denying the opulent impression of this property.

Around the corner from Summertown Studio and STRONG Pilates, with Somerton Yacht Club and Surf Life Saving Clubs just down the road and a stroll to Brighton's Jetty Road precinct, there's plenty to keep you occupied by the coast in Somerton Park.

Arriving on the market just in time for spring, there's so much to look forward to when you settle within this rare architectural lifestyle property on Stimson Grove.
