One of Highbury's most distinguished and grand landmark residences ideally located at the very end of Gallery Road directly opposite the serene and picturesque River Torrens Linear Park and views through to the Adelaide Hills.

This imposing, yet timeless c.2004 built residence was designed and constructed by the current owners with 3 main things in mind; location, attention to detail and quality luxury living in one of the North East Adelaide's most sought after suburbs. This cherished and throughly loved family home is now ready to hand over to the most discerning buyer.

Surrounded by an array of native Australian flora and fauna, in 1998, the owners stumbled across an advertisement in The Advertiser Classifieds for a block of land in Highbury and decided to take a look. They instantly fell in love with a vision of what this amazing blank canvas could, and would become in the years to come. With their initial dream starting in 1998 and becoming reality in 2004. This has been a labour of love and enjoyment that has continued until today....

Upon arrival, it becomes immediately evident of its immense presence, which graces its elevated allotment of approx. 856sqm of land. Beautifully located adjoining natural reserve and superbly positioned to take advantage of the stunning views over the The River Torrens, Linear Park and through to the Adelaide Hills.

Entering the home through the solid timber front doors, you're warmly welcomed to the lower level by the tiled entrance and Sydney Blue Gum timber and wrought iron staircase. Decorative cornices and high timber skirtings grace not only the lower level of the home, but the majority of the upper level as well. This level features 3 good size bedrooms, each with its own unique and breathtaking views of Linear Park, built-in robes and ceiling fans.
