Perched near Strathalbyn's highest point, one of the early homes to grace this historic town also hides away in its own sanctuary spanning more than 1750 square metres of Mother Nature's magic.
A generous, stone-laden character home that once housed the town's mayor and has since evolved into the best version of itself on the doorstep of Strathalbyn's historic High Street.
C1920, its unique exterior features two verandahs, one corner enclosed to create a sun-lit studio with soul-soothing views of the carefully curated gardens.
Inside, recent updates have breathed new life into this grand home featuring soaring 3.3m ceilings, three bedrooms, a bevy of living zones, an entertainer's kitchen and a wine cellar.
The home welcomes you with an ornate screened and tiled entry, through double French doors into the impressive foyer.
The centrepiece of the home is the substantial lounge and dining area, connected by original jarrah floors, unique glazing and warmed by a combustion fire. The lounge's bay window with its relaxing built-in seat creates a charming space to enjoy the garden views and resident birds. The dining area also features a built-in window seat, useful when entertaining larger numbers or to enjoy a different aspect of the garden.
The social hub is the country-style kitchen with timber benchtops, breakfast bar, Miele dishwasher and stunning chef's Falcon 110 cooker with ceramic cooktop and double oven.
The substantial main bedroom features original polished jarrah floors and sash windows, while a sash window in bedroom two, overlooks the private curved front lawn and garden beds.
A large central study and versatile rear bedroom with external glass door access rounds out this supremely adaptable home with an updated main bathroom and second toilet.
Windows at every turn keep you constantly connected to a magical green space that backs onto a nature reserve and features a sunken fire pit zone, sprawling lawns, a cubby house, a powered double garage, seating nooks, fruit trees and a veggie patch.
And what feels a world away is just a stroll from Strathalbyn's village conveniences and historic landmarks, all within 30 minutes of the Fleurieu coast, 20 to Mount Barker and 50 to Adelaide.
