'Valchiusa'; an otherworldly home with a golden outlook on some six magical acres

Inspired by the barn homes of New Zealand, named after an Italian Poet and bound by its 'Australiana' outlook; 'Valchiusa' draws its magic from all over the world…to create a soul-soothing world of its own on just over six sprawling acres.

Set right on the bank of your very own dam, the northern sun bounces off the water and onto this 2024-built home that strikes a dramatic black figure against its green, lush backdrop.

Conceived by Clint Girardi of Girardi Design, the owner's vision of a bold take on the barn materialised in a dynamic layout that retreats to 'wings', draws you to its boundless open-plan nucleus and never lets go of the view via its prolific double glazing.

St George's have their fingerprints on the high-spec, searingly stylish selections of this HIA nominated home with heated natural oak floors, stone benchtops, Carerra joinery and brushed nickel tapware to name but a few.

Limestone feature walls, direct from Robe add another layer of earthy warmth and texture to this light-drenched home with 6m-high cathedral ceilings and a vast main living zone that settles at its starring kitchen and steps out to a rain sensing Vergola with dual sided fireplace and a dam front row seat.

That ingenious layout ensures you can always find refuge in your own wing with a study/fifth bedroom, far away from the kids/guest bedrooms at the opposing end.

The plunge pool and master ensuite's free-standing bath also overlook the dam, ensuring you can soak (literally) up golden hour in a state of bliss while the kids kayak, cast a line or set up camp on the little island at the end of a jetty.

Extensive shedding/garaging, two orchards, fully fenced paddocks, self-watering wicker beds, prolific water storage and views to a distant Mount Lofty make this a property that is always beautiful, supremely practical and largely self-sufficient in the same breath.

As the story goes, Italian poet Francesco Petrarca would often swap the city's hustle and bustle for Valchiusa, his closed valley. You're doing the same thing. Only this time, you're just 25 minutes from Adelaide's CBD. Magic.
