Reap the rewards of nearly 50 years of love and attention from the current owners in sculpting this native hillside haven into a self-sufficient paradise.

As you venture down the extended driveway you quickly understand that this hidden treasure on over an acre of land provides a property of scale with unrivalled views wrapped in the privacy and seclusion of the Adelaide Hills.

The original homestead was constructed in 1955 from Mount Gambier Stone and provides the foundation to the extended residence that features a second storey added in the late 1990’s to generate a versatile and extensive footprint.

The choice is yours.....a sustainable property for environmentally aware owners..... a multi-generational home for extended families.... a work from home dream house with self-contained offices.... or perhaps an opportunity for incremental income stream from upstairs Airbnb with downstairs residence?

Located in one of Adelaide’s most scenic suburbs, Eden Hills is within walking distance of the Blackwood shopping precinct, close to Flinders University and Hospital, holds direct access to numerous walking trails, bike tracks, parks and the Wittunga Botanical Gardens. Zoned for the popular Blackwood Highschool 24 Wonoka Street Eden Hills is also close to St Johns, Scotch and Mercedes Colleges making this property ideal for a wide array of buyers.
