Onkaparinga Hills SA 5163

The opportunity to consider a picturesque and substantial landholding within such easy reach of suburban convenience is rare indeed and provides the perfect opportunity for the family looking to size up while keeping necessary conveniences at their fingertips.

Discreetly positioned down a quiet no-through lane, the long, meandering driveway welcomes you home lined with mature native and Pepper trees culminating in an expansive forecourt area where you will find ample parking for occupants and guests alike. Paddock access can be achieved from either side of the entrance driveway, while powered sheds and a well-proportioned double carport will cater to vehicles and hobbies with aplomb.

Making best use of its elevated position the home provides an expansive north-facing verandah area from which you can gaze across your ample lawned space to soak in the rolling hillside views all the way to the coast beyond. Sliding doors usher you into the vast family/meals/kitchen space which continues to offer spellbinding views to the north. Quality tiled flooring stretches out underfoot with lofty raked ceilings and exposed beams overhead and comfort is always assured with a freshly serviced slow-combustion heater and split reverse cycle air-conditioner pairing with dual ceiling fans overhead.

A central hallway provides access to the evening quarters highlighted by a freshly updated family bathroom and separate toilet offering floor-to-ceiling tiling along with brand-new fixtures and fittings. Secondary bedrooms are well sized while the main bedroom suite offers enormous proportions complete with built-in robe storage and its own split reverse cycle air-conditioner, ceiling fan, sunken retreat area and private office room.

A handy sunroom/utility room offers the potential for additional private space to enjoy in the winter months or a utility room to smooth the transition indoors once the day draws to an end. With well-defined yard spaces to the front and rear of the home it will be easy for the modern family to keep kids and pets close to home while still being able to take advantage of the wider land offering available here.

The large rectangular landholding of 10-acres will surely accommodate a wide range of activities with its southern boundary encompassing 'Emu Creek' which is fed by the original bore which traces its origin back to before these 10-acres sub-divisions took place.

This is the chance to secure serene and private rural living in this sought-after pocket of Onkaparinga Hills where Woodcroft College, Town Centre & Mall are just moments away. This opportunity is too good to miss, call to arrange an inspection today.
