'STONE END" | Stillness, History and Night Sky Magic on 27 Spectacular Hectares

For the scenic landholding or the homestead's sense of solitude; just a 10-minute drive from Strathalbyn, Stone End is where stars and stillness collide and rural freedom lives large.

Set within its 27 hectares, the three-bedroom homestead settles you the moment you enter. Exposed brickwork, ceiling beams and custom leadlight lead with country class, while calming rural outlooks follow you from room to room, many with captivating dual aspects.

If you're drawn to the lifestyle, it packs a punch. Vast and varied infrastructure caters to small-scale farming, machinery or substantial home business pursuits – one standout provides a lined office, pit, crane, 3-phase power and mezzanine storage, ideal for the trade, entrepreneur, even car collector.

Broadening its scope are the tack room and stable, cattle yards and ramp, plus three paddocks already familiar with cattle agistment.

Repainted interiors offset the home's cedar-panelled warmth, slate floors and heritage fixtures, all complemented by generous proportions and 2.8m ceilings. From entry, the corridor leads past a plush master suite with a walk-in robe and heritage-style ensuite, well distanced from the huge living room and abutting family/games room.

The solid timber kitchen is front, centre, in theme and right at home. Hosting a central island, Bosch oven, Bosch electric cooktop, its ode to the old days is a Stanley wood stove, running the home's hot water through winter.

Two rear bedrooms – one with robes - and a study/fourth bedroom join the large main bathroom and separate powder room, and between the internal garage access and trade's entrance, the mudroom-sized laundry is ready for a haul of workwear with a dedicated drying room in waiting.

Beyond the return verandahs and garden layers, irrigated by the property's natural spring, exploration is a must. For the tall gums, tranquil dam, 19th century dry stone boundary walls, and the old Wheal Ellen mine, circa 1856, still marking the hillside with its remnant chimney stack.

Or there's always the rear patio to call it a day, savouring a sweep of borrowed stillness that may as well be your own.

Around you, native gardens draw birdlife, butterflies and dragonflies, the Rodwell River Creek becomes a haven for frogs and turtles, yet nothing outshines the night skies set alight by the Milky Way.

From lavender and daisies to dirt tracks and four-wheeled adventures, you couldn't script a more wholesome existence. And after the rains, the entire landscape lifts – including the pond and dam.

Savour a property that works as hard as you let it, in a location that gives you all the privacy you need with civilised convenience on standby. It's called balance – and it rarely gets more memorable than this…
