The Tour:
Hovering over the township below and revealing no more than a chimney top to the envious onlooker, this beautiful colonial abode unravels amidst breathtaking hilltop seclusion. Taking pride of place at the peak of Karkoo Court, boasting enviable sky scraping views and privately positioned a mere moment from the heart of Mount Barker; one could be forgiven for being completely unaware that this country parcel existed.
Moving beyond roadside you are immediately consumed by the native surrounds and remote vibe that evolves here. A long winding driveway navigates to the landing, lush green acreage peels to the foot and an early burst of spring bloom brightens the soul as you voyage throughout the grounds.
Internally this gracious colonial stretches long with an easy-flow floorplan cleverly aligned to savour panoramic views. With the Western wing reserved solely for slumber and the Eastern wing subject to a generous living expanse, the double brick property caters beautifully to the ever-changing needs of the growing family providing ample privacy for young minds to develop.
A real sense of family emulates within and the layout works perfectly to accommodate the expected soirees.
A character family room comes complete with a built in bar, a lounge room relishes the crackle of an open fire and a recently outfitted kitchen looks upon life both inside and out, proving the perfect vantage point to watch the children exploring outdoors.
The exterior of the property unfolds in a similar ‘full of life’ manner with a host of alfresco options adorning the home.
To the left of the property a paved pergola with patio blinds, to the right a place of solace amongst the gardens and to the rear, a delightful picnic patch alongside the pond.
My personal favourite….the tennis court.
Evoking childhood memories from its elevated position at the rear of the allotment, one can only imagine the neighbourhood challenges that may take place here.
Resting on a hillside ledge under the canopy of a towering treescape and peeking down upon the township below, this beauty will work perfectly to draw friends and family together.
Store the caravan or boat in the 18.3 x 6.1m shed that sits deep to the rear, place your ‘green footprint’ on this hilltop package and nurture the vegetable allotment, or combine the chicken run, rainwater storage and acreage to embark a life of self-sufficiency.
With the Mount Barker infrastructure at the base of the hill and this incredible rural sanctuary at the top, you really can enjoy the best of both worlds at this address.
Inspection is imperative to appreciate the outlook and the extensive list of features that evolve beyond the driveway.
