1 Cutter Cct, Encounter Bay SA 5211, Australia

Located on the corner of Cutter Circuit and Matthew Flinders Drive in the ever-popular Encounter Lakes, this slightly elevated David Knights–built residence sits privately among quality homes in a setting that feels more like a coastal retreat than a suburban address. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully designed to the original owners’ specifications, the home is filled with unique features that set it apart.

 

The front gardens are a picture of care, with flowing lawns, meandering garden beds, a paved double driveway and, to the side, a second gated drive for secure boat, caravan, or extra vehicle parking.

 

A wide tiled portico leads you into the welcoming entrance hall. To the right, the double garage provides direct internal access.

 

To the left, the journey becomes even more intriguing. The formal sunken lounge boasts a cathedral ceiling and three grand arched colonial windows, filling the space with natural light. Adjoining is the formal dining area – the perfect setting for a large family table and memorable gatherings. One of the home’s most striking features is the central glass atrium, visible from all living areas and the outdoor entertaining space, creating a constant connection to the lush greenery within.

 

The casual family and meals area blend effortlessly with the Tasmanian oak kitchen, complete with curved breakfast bar, overhead cupboards, generous bench space, rainwater plumbed to the sink, Ceran hotplate, wall oven, corner pantry, and Miele dishwasher. Accommodation includes two double bedrooms (one with mirrored built-in robe), a main three-way bathroom in soft neutral tones, a well-fitted laundry with built-in storage, and a spacious master suite with European-style ensuite and a full-wall built-in robe.

 

Step outside and discover a year-round entertaining haven – a gable-roofed pergola surrounded by rainforest-style gardens, retained beds, and even a tranquil pond. The area is enclosed to allow fresh air in while keeping wind and rain at bay, ensuring comfort in all seasons. Raised vegetable plots and a large garden shed with concrete floor complete the outdoor package.

 

Comfort is assured with split-system reverse-cycle air conditioning, and peace of mind comes with a heat pump hot water service.

 

This is more than just a home – it’s a meticulously cared-for property that offers privacy, charm, and an enviable coastal lifestyle, all just moments from Encounter Lakes’ swimming beaches, walking trails, and café scene.
