“Carwoola” is one of the Adelaide Hills most desirable lifestyle homes. This very special 9 room property will appeal instantly to those who seek a peaceful, almost botanic living environment, perhaps those who consider a self sufficient lifestyle will also find the property of interest.

5 acres – 2 acre lake – tennis court & sauna

25 minutes from town and you arrive at the Impressive driveway entrance which leads you past the lake to the home and garaging.

Distant from neighbours and flexible in floor plan design, the home could comfortably accommodate 2 separate living scenarios. Open plan living areas, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen and 3 living rooms.

The picturesque 2 acre spring fed lake is a haven for fresh water fish and birdlife, also an outstanding attribute for the gardens during the Summer months.

Beautifully presented and recently modernized to create a serene stylish living environment, set back on the rear boundary adjacent a reserve to capture the picturesque lake and garden outlooks, designed for all rooms in the home to enjoy.

Discover life on the water in a secret Hills location

It’s hard to imagine a more idyllic spot than this five-acre lifestyle property that breathes tranquility with a spring-fed lake and rolling countryside vistas, just twenty minutes from the CBD.

On the lake shore, tucked privately behind a screen of willow, oak and maple, the modern four-bedroom home is all comfort and style, airiness and supreme light. No matter from where you look, every view is to nature: In front, cormorants fish the crystal clear waters of the lake while, at the rear, is the pristine wilderness of a nature reserve. Whether relaxing or entertaining, inside or out, you get a sense of boundless freedom.

The two-storey interior – family room, kitchen, formal lounge/dining, guest bedroom suite, two more double bedrooms, laundry and shower room at ground level and, upstairs, a third living area flowing out to a waterside balcony and colossal master bedroom retreat with generous ensuite bathroom – follows a fresh modern aesthetic, with pale timbers and neutral honeycomb carpets underfoot.

The lakeside terrace is a suntrap in winter or you may prefer to celebrate the advent of cooler weather with a roaring log fire, fan assisted to drive the heat through all the living spaces.

Recapture this home’s heyday when tennis parties on the fenced north/south court – it needs resurfacing – were regular occasions. There was boating on the lake, fishing from the island and relaxing saunas in the cedar chalet. Such fun!
