$1,150,000 - $1,250,000
66 acres, endless horizons, and a lifestyle that moves to an entirely different rhythm.
Set across a spectacular sweep of Clayton Bay countryside, bringing together the best of rural living – productive acreage, serious infrastructure, and the kind of freedom that simply can't be measured in square metres.
And at the heart of it all, a home that knows exactly how to make the most of its setting. Situated at the end of a no through road and built C1985, its classic Littlehampton brick façade and sweeping return veranda settle effortlessly into the landscape, while raked timber ceilings, exposed brick, wide picture windows, and beautiful natural light bring the character indoors.
A generous front lounge makes a warm first impression, gathering around the glow of a combustion fireplace and offering a cosy retreat for the cooler months, before flowing into a kitchen that doesn't miss a beat. Rich timber cabinetry, expansive benchtops, WIP, stainless-steel gas cooker, and traditional wood stove are ready for any recipe, while a relaxed sit-in layout keeps everyone connected.
Accommodation is just as thoughtfully considered. Three bedrooms settle around a practical family bathroom, while an oversized laundry double as a mudroom, complete with an additional dormitory-style bathroom to make light work of muddy boots, busy mornings, and life on the land.
Outside, a wide verandah invites you to sit back and soak it all in, before established gardens unfold into a wonderfully private world of winding pathways, veggie beds, water features, lush plantings, and even a freestanding outdoor bath - little pockets of magic waiting to be discovered at every turn.
And there's still more.
Wander further and an off-grid studio – affectionally dubbed the 'Little House' - adds another layer of possibility, complete with kitchenette, powder room, combustion fireplace, and its own deck. Creative escape, work-from-home headquarters, guest retreat, or simply somewhere to disappear for an afternoon – the flexibility is all yours.
Then comes the acreage. Divided into five fully fenced paddocks, each with its own water supply, the land is as practical as it is picturesque. A central raceway connects directly to the cattle yards, while carefully maintained veldt and clover pastures, extensive shedding with power, substantial rainwater storage, water licensing, and solar power ensure the infrastructure is ready to work as hard as you do.
But there's a softer side to all that productivity. More than 3,000 trees and shrubs, an established woodlot and three protective shelter belts bring beauty, biodiversity and birdlife in abundance, while a former salt pan has found new life as a frog-filled wetland. There's even the added benefit of use of an adjoining council paddock with a dedicated revegetation area.
Bring the horses, run livestock, explore farming or agistment, or simply claim every last acre as your own private escape – there's room to dream big, work hard, slow down, or do a little of everything.
When the mood takes you beyond the front gate, Clayton Bay delivers a lifestyle all its own just minutes away. Wander the waterfront, launch the boat, settle in at The Local, or explore the natural wonders of the Lower Murray and Coorong. Mount Barker can be glimpsed from the kitchen window, while Adelaide sits just over an hour away, yet out here, the rest of the world feels wonderfully distant.
