155 Badenoch Road, Carey Gully, SA 5144

Best Offers By 12noon Tuesday 3rd November (unless sold prior)

Imagine 29 acres where towering forests, winding trails, and paddocks are all yours. Where childhood adventures become lifelong memories, every season puts on a different show, and a C1910 homestead sits at the heart of it all.

Hidden in the heart of Carey Gully, one of the Adelaide Hills' best-kept secrets, 155 Badenoch Road is so much more than a home. It's a living, breathing legacy, lovingly planted, planned, and perfected over four decades by custodians with one extraordinary vision – to create an estate that would endure.

And what a headstart they've created.

At its heart, a picture-perfect C1910 mudbrick homestead sits proudly on a rocky knoll – a deliberate choice of building site that has kept it as steadfast today as the day it was built. Beautifully evolved without losing an ounce of its original soul, soaring ceilings, timber floors, decorative fireplaces, and picture windows define a home that feels as though it has always belonged.

Three generous bedrooms branch from a wide central hallway, while a cosy lounge gathers around a combustion fireplace. Beyond, a glass-wrapped dining area draws the gardens indoors and connects effortlessly with a contemporary galley kitchen.

An well-sized laundry and updated bathroom with underfloor heating keep the practicalities covered, while direct outdoor access makes light work of muddy boots and everything that comes with a life lived outdoors.

Beyond, timber decking and a paved terrace set the scene for long lunches that linger, while a separate studio adds another layer of possibility – a creative retreat, work-from-home haven, or semi-independent quarters.

But the real magic begins beyond the front door.

Four decades of careful cultivation have created an extraordinary tapestry of towering pines, gums, cedars, oaks, sequoias, maples, magnolias, camelias, and so much more. Every season brings a new reason to fall in love, with sweeping lawns, a winter creek, and hidden clearings inviting you to lose yourself in a landscape that never stops revealing something new.

A pine forest hides a lofted cubby complete with its own wood-burning heater. A picturesque dam holds an island just waiting to be reached by rowboat. Watered paddocks welcome four-legged friends, while resident magpies, birdsong, and visiting wildlife provide the soundtrack to a life less ordinary.

Behind the beauty, three-phase power, a barn, woodshed, equipment bays, and garage workshop give every pursuit to grow, while dams, pumping infrastructure, header tank, rainwater, and water licensing help keep this remarkable landscape thriving.

And the vision doesn't have to end here.

Cherish the homestead, extend its footprint, or explore the potential for an entirely new residence elsewhere on the estate (STCC). With 29 acres and decades of groundwork behind you, there's room to dream just as boldly as those who came before.

Seclusion comes without sacrifice, too. Carey Gully, Piccadilly, and Uraidla bring village favourites, sporting clubs and walking trails within easy reach, while Uraidla Primary, Heathfield High, and leading private schools make family life as appealing as the landscape itself. Even the Tollgate is approximately 15 minutes away.

Forty years to create, a lifetime to make your own – the next chapter of New Forrest is yours to write.
