'Statenborough Estate'....more like a country estate
With seemingly acres of space, a classic old stone outbuilding ,'shearers' quarters' and even chickens running around the garden ... so casual, so relaxed. Statenborough Estate feels like a farm to me yet the reality is this is a magnificent 'gentleman's villa' with all the cosmopolitan luxuries like solar heated pool, floodlit supergrass tennis court and amazing teenagers' retreat. It earns the right to be referred to as an estate as it sits on a massive 2743 square metres of Adelaide's most exclusive land.
An outstanding relaxed family home of impressive proportions where a blend of history, modern design, contemporary amenities and resort facilities uniquely culminate to create the ultimate feeling of Australia's early gentry in the middle of one of Adelaide's most cosmopolitan prestige residential addresses.
The Homestead ... brilliant reminiscences of an era long past are showcased by the soaring 3.4m ceilings, ornate marble fireplaces and deep cove cornicing, while beautifully proportioned room dimensions flow through the entire home. Inside the home there are 4 bedrooms, substantially renovated in 2003, with new bathrooms recently completed.
'Statenborough Estate' offers something special ... it has a certain 'feel', which you too, may experience when you wander around this property. And it simply can not be put into words."
A wide entrance hall leads guests to a most impressive and opulent formal lounge room with inspiring period style light, windows on two sides and built in book shelves and cupboards. For more relaxed occasions modern open plan living can be enjoyed across the rear of the home, where the full vista of the court, pool and self contained teenagers' retreat can be appreciated. At the moment you can also watch the chickens at work, so relaxed and very much a part of the picture.
Large sets of French doors, oak flooring, modern carpet and panoramic windows, style this integrated living, dining and kitchen area. Here the pinnacle of kitchen design offers stainless steel splashbacks, Carrera marble benchtops, Glem 900mm oven with gourmet gas hotplates, island bench and Miele dishwasher.
Outdoors, paved patios and shady spots offer superb al fresco areas for entertaining family and friends, or as we country people would say...the perfect place for smoko.
The amazing master suite has vogue black shutters, walk in robe and spacious ensuite bathroom, completed in 2005 with double shower, Carrera marble benchtops and designer fittings. A family bathroom, also choreographed with the same contemporary materials has top of the range, 16 jet spa bath, shower and twin vanities.
Quite possibly the best teenagers' pad in the world, certainly 6 star shearers quarters, is set in the picturesque north facing contemporary gardens with views over the court and pool. This get away retreat with wall unit air conditioning, features lounge, dining, kitchen and bathroom downstairs with bedroom upstairs.
As one would expect of a property of this calibre there is a cellar (for all your preservatives of course), electric driveway gates, double carport and garage, three phase power, wiring for Foxtel, stunning antique garden light, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning. No Estate is complete without water tanks ... 2 x 10,000 litre water tanks with pump ready for use in the garden!
