The price paid for this Mt Barker home will directly support an Australian charity that's been helping children and their families for the last 50 years.
Set in the Emerald Way estate in Mt Barker’s east, the four-bedroom home is being auctioned off to support Variety – the Children’s Charity, thanks to some generous donations from the builder, estate developer, and others in the community.

Urban Edge SA built the home, which sits on a 495m2 at 2 Emerald Way, Mount Barker. The builder, together with Emerald Way Land Developments, has partnered with Century 21 SA and marketing firm Adelady to sell it at a no-reserve auction on 21 November.
The whole effort has a big goal: to raise more than $1 million for the charity through the net proceeds of the auction, sponsorships and further fundraising happening through this campaign.
Variety will be the recipient of this mammoth effort, with the funds supporting its work with kids and their families facing challenges through sickness, disadvantage or living with disability.
For Joe Belperio, director of the Emerald Way estate, the cause is one that’s close to his heart. The house has been named "Amelie" after the daughter he and his family tragically lost at age three.
"Amelie's passing left a void in our hearts. Creating this home in her memory allows us to transform our grief into a beacon of hope for other families. It’s our way of giving back to those in need as we know what it’s like to walk in their shoes,” Mr Belpiro said of the project when it was first announced.
He added that for some time he has been hoping to assist children "who may need special help in their journey”.

Urban Edge SA director Ameen Farah said that many thoughtful hours of planning and design had gone into the creation of this home, with the project having been in the works for several years.
"The Amelie is designed to nurture family life. Its thoughtful layout includes a spacious entertainer’s kitchen, open-plan living areas, a guest bedroom with an ensuite on the lower level, and a tranquil alfresco area – perfect for unwinding," he said.
The home will hit the block with no reserve price, with proceedings set to start at 8:30am on 21 November.
