15490 Birdseye Highway, Coolillie, SA 5670

3.5 Acres of Country Freedom, Coastal Convenience and Room to Breathe
If escaping the hustle and bustle and enjoying your own private oasis sounds like the lifestyle you've been dreaming of, this unique 3.5-acre property could be just the answer.
Ideally positioned just off the sealed Birdseye Highway, approximately halfway between Lock and Elliston, the property offers a wonderful combination of privacy, space and self-sufficient country living, while still being within an easy 20 to 25-minute drive of Elliston and the coast.
The current owners have undertaken an impressive list of improvements over recent years, transforming the property into an inviting lifestyle retreat. From the beautifully maintained gardens and established lawns to productive fruit trees, shedding and upgraded three-bedroom home, much of the hard work has already been done.
A Lifestyle with Room to Grow
For those dreaming of a hobby farm or a more self-sufficient way of life, there is plenty to love here.
The approximately 3.5 acres provide room for vegetable gardens, beekeeping, established fruit trees and animals, while the area's productive loam soil is well suited to growing a variety of plants and produce.
Water is a real feature of the property, the windmill is kept for ornamental reasons as a pump driven bore provides underground water that has been tested as suitable for garden use, complemented by rainwater tanks with an impressive combined capacity of approximately 50,000 litres.
Cyclone fencing around the boundary provides an added advantage for those looking to keep animals within the property and away from the road and neighbouring paddocks.
Comfortable Home with Extensive Upgrades
At the heart of the property is the three-bedroom Besser brick home, which has benefited from numerous upgrades and improvements, including fresh internal and external painting.
New floating vinyl flooring has been installed, along with new electrical wiring and installation of power points, also includes new downlights throughout the main section of the home and oyster lights to the rear rooms. New ceilings have also been installed through the main section.
During the cooler months, settle into the cosy lounge and enjoy the warmth of the built-in combustion heater, positioned within the fireplace to help keep the home comfortable on those chilly winter evenings.
The generously sized main bedroom includes a ceiling fan.
Renovated & Practical Kitchen
The refreshed kitchen combines practicality with modern improvements and includes:
• New benchtops
• Freshly painted original cabinetry
• New overhead cupboards
• New dishwasher

The rear family room provides additional living space and leads through to another good-sized bedroom with a ceiling fan.

The tiled laundry has also been upgraded and offers a built-in timber benchtop with stainless-steel sink, Fisher & Paykel front-loader washing machine and three tall built-in linen and storage cupboards.
The smaller third bedroom is accessed from the rear porch. The porch area presents an opportunity for the new owner to complete the remaining works, including the installation of new windows and finishing of the rear Gyprock wall.
A separate toilet is also located within the rear porch and is connected to the bore.

Excellent Shedding & Workshop Space
Outside, there is even more to appreciate.
A substantial 6m x 10m steel-framed shed provides excellent space for a caravan, boat, vehicles or additional storage. The high-clearance, open-front design is positioned away from the prevailing weather, with the property's 20 solar panels installed on the house roof.
For those who love to tinker, work on projects or simply need extra storage, there is also a generous 9m x 10m open-front workshop, complete with workbenches.
A 6kVA backup generator is connected to the home, providing added peace of mind should there be an interruption to the property's normal power supply.
The surrounding grounds are neat and well established, with lawned areas, gardens and gravel pathways creating an attractive and relaxing setting. Sit back, enjoy the serenity and listen to the abundant birdlife. Birdwatchers and nature lovers will feel right at home.
Country Serenity, Coast Within Reach
When it's time for a day out, simply hook up the boat and head towards Elliston. With the township and spectacular coastline approximately 20 to 25 minutes away via sealed road, fishing and days by the ocean can easily become part of your regular lifestyle.
Or perhaps you'll choose to stay home, put your feet up and simply enjoy the peace, privacy and freedom that comes with having acreage and no neighbours on your doorstep.
Properties offering this combination of acreage, privacy, shedding, established gardens and an independent lifestyle don't come along every day.
