Connected formal lounge and dining zones gather around a mantled gas fire that makes winter something to look forward to, while an enclosed veranda wraps the home in another layer of living space and a front-row seat to the landscape beyond.The kitchen delivers a beautiful balance of country soul and contemporary calibre. Bathed in light from a Velux skylight, granite benchtops, premium Smeg stainless-steel appliances, and a generous breakfast bar make everything from the morning coffee ritual to a full house on Sunday feel right at home.Accommodation keeps things equally considered. The main suite claims its own private corner, complete with dressing room and ensuite, while a second bedroom, flexible study, and additional bathroom offer room to retreat, reset, host guests, or work from home.And outside, the lifestyle really comes into its own.An all-weather entertaining pavilion, wrapped in Ziptrak blinds, gives every occasion a reason to head outdoors. An enviable tapestry of roses, irises, proteas, and wisteria brings colour and character to the surrounds, with a plethora of leafy pockets and quiet spots primed for you to sit back with a good drop. A freestanding laundry doubles as a mudroom, and a separate studio gives work, hobbies, or creative pursuits a place to call their own.Beyond, the land rolls out across fully fenced paddocks with a creek winding through, opening the door to just about every version of the dream. And for those with a taste for the homegrown, there's already plenty to work with. Established fruit trees, grapevines, raspberry patches, a chook run, and productive vegetable gardens bring the harvest home, while extensive shedding, substantial water licensing, rainwater storage, and solar panels deliver the practical backbone to match.Establish a flower farm, run a few head of cattle, saddle up for an afternoon ride, get serious about self-sufficiency, or simply enjoy the rare privilege of looking out across your own patch of paradise - there's plenty of room for every idea.Better still, escaping the everyday doesn't mean leaving convenience behind.Just ten minutes from Adelaide's north-eastern suburbs, schools, shopping, and your morning coffee remain reassuringly close, while the cellar doors, country pubs, and winding roads of the Adelaide Hills make exploring your own backyard a weekend ritual. And with the CBD around 35 minutes away, you're close enough to stay connected, yet far enough to feel a world apart.Three generations in the keeping, a century in the making - now it's your turn.More to love:•\t167800m2 (41 acres) approx, formerly a fruit orchard•\tCreek providing water to paddock troughs•\tFertile land, including terra rossa soil•\t65million litre water license•\t2 high quality bores and pump•\tExtensive rainwater, plumbed to house•\tSeptic system•\t13.6m x 13.4m garage workshop with cold store, roller doors, and adjacent carport•\t7.6m x 26m carport/store•\t15kw, 56 solar panel system to shed roof•\tPlum, pear, peach, lemon, cumquat, and apple trees•\tIrrigation system to house gardens•\tShade house with raspberry patch•\tAdditional garden shade house•\tC1920 sandstone and red brick home, updated throughout•\tCharacter features throughout – high moulded ceilings, fretwork, leadlight glass•\tDouble garage•\tDaikin ducted zoned reverse cycle air conditioning•\tGas heater to lounge•\tCeiling fans•\tKitchen updated 2006, with granite benchtops, generous storage, velux skylight, and stainless steel appliances, including Smeg gas cooktop and dual electric ovens and Bosch dishwasher•\tSecurity system and outdoor sensor lighting•\tOutdoor blinds•\tGas instantaneous hot water service with internal temperate control panels•\tFreestanding studio•\tFreestanding laundry/mud roomSpecifications:CT / 5951/896Council / Adelaide HillsZoning / PRuLBuilt / 1920Land / 167800m2 (approx)Council Rates / $paEmergency Services Levy / $paEstimated rental assessment / Written rental assessment can be provided upon requestNearby Schools / Fairview Park P.S, Birdwood H.S Disclaimer: All information provided has been obtained from sources we believe to be accurate, however, we cannot guarantee the information is accurate and we accept no liability for any errors or omissions (including but not limited to a property's land size, floor plans and size, building age and condition).
