Situated at the gateway to the Fleurieu Peninsula this gorgeous property is perfect for those looking to embrace country-living. If you love a day at the beach you are only a twenty minute drive to both Victor Harbor and Normanville and if you enjoy a shiraz or two you are also only a similar distance to McLaren Vale and all the award-winning wineries on offer there. For those who still need to work for a living you are only around an hour’s drive back into the CBD of Adelaide. Does it get any better than this?

The property features a gorgeous symmetrical stone cottage, built in 1855, thought to be one of the oldest in the area. The home features three bedrooms, cosy separate north-facing lounge room complete with combustion fire, separate home office/additional living room plus an open-plan kitchen-meals area. There is also an updated bathroom which is wheelchair friendly and the living area opens into an all-weather outdoor living area with stunning views over the neighbouring paddocks and hills.

To the rear of the home you will find the “party shed” and huge outdoor entertaining area that is sure to host a party or two. This has kitchen facilities, a separate toilet plus a “shower shed”, ideal for when you have friends and family come for weekend visits.

There is a carport, huge garage plus additional storage sheds, wood sheds AND a chicken run to provide you with fresh organic eggs in the morning.

There is also an old dairy that could possibly be converted into an additional dwelling (subject to all necessary consents) or otherwise serves as great additional storage. For those that are looking for self-sufficiency you will appreciate the wide selection of fruit trees and productive garden beds that have been lovingly established by the current owner (with irrigation system), providing an abundance of both fruit and vegetables fresh from the garden to the table. Whether it’s enjoying scones with your home-made raspberry jam or home-made apple pie you are limited here only by your imagination… and cooking skills.

The home is serviced by mains water but there is also great rainwater storage plus a creek that runs through the property on the eastern side providing fresh spring-water year-round, you may also be lucky enough to catch a fish or maybe a yabbie or two.

The large paddock provides enough feed for those looking to have some cows, sheep or perhaps a couple of horses but the neighbouring farmer is also on hand to assist with baling the pasture if required.
