Like a gifted painter with a blank canvas, architect John Tulloch - with the visionary help of its owners - created what modernist purists would consider a work of art, etching itself into the treetops thanks to a plot that falls away at its soul-soothing rear. And the result is a 4-bedroom home that not only revels in its untouched originality - but also the clever evolution of its spacious footprint, extended at its southern and western bookends to add an ensuited master wing and sunroom/study to its equation. The sum of its parts is a truly versatile, split-level home that pays homage to it natural surrounds courtesy of its prolific hand-made timber accents, earthy exposed clinker brick walls, raked ceilings and expansive picture windows that bring the outside in. Whether it be via an ingenious servery or a step down, the way this soulful home so effortlessly connects one space to the next is something to savour, drawing everyone to the original timber kitchen at its nucleus. Each space has its own special appeal; be it the study that frames those treetops from your desk; the sitting room's raked ceilings, feature partition, cosy fireplace and north-facing window; or the timber-decked terrace that wraps around the rear and has Christmas lunch written all over it. Follow its meandering paths deep into its block to truly appreciate the years of love and work that have gone into creating this special garden setting, opened to the public on several occasions. Tucked calmly away on the brink of Blackwood's bustling heart, Belair National Park and Brown Hill Creek, to live in the lap of nature and never be far from supermarkets, cafes, schools and the city itself; this is a special home with a special lifestyle attached.
