Lot 5 Dashwood Gully Road, Kangarilla
Seldom will you find a 20 acre lifestyle property that offers so much. The Australian Colonial style home has been carefully designed to blend with the beauty of it’s natural surroundings. From the moment you turn down the driveway and cross the bridge in the dappled shade of English trees, the hustle and bustle of our fast paced world slips behind. Relax under the shady verandas as Blue Wrens and Honey Eaters forage in the native shrubs at your feet. Listen to the sounds of water from the Kangarilla Creek cascading over the weir and the frogs singing their approval of a waterway that still supports so much life. This is a place where kids will happily venture outside to discover the simple pleasures this property has to offer. Visiting Koalas, Kangaroos and Echidnas find this natural setting a safe refuge. In the morning, ring the small china bell and Red-browed Firetail finches arrive for breakfast, while cheeky Blue Wrens hop along the verandah awaiting their treats.
This Gum studded property offers the cool seclusion of a sheltered valley, or venture to the top of the property for panoramic vistas of rolling hills, chequered patterns of southern vineyards and distant sea views. With so many beautiful spots to picnic on your own land you may never wish to venture further, but cross the road and you enter the many walking and Mountain Biking trails of Kuitpo Forest.
If you want or need a lifestyle change, this is where you will find it. The home offers 3 double bedrooms, all with built-in robes, plus the convenience of an en suite bathroom. The slow combustion fire keeps the home warm throughout the chilly Winter and gathering firewood on the property with the aid of the Quad Bike can be an enjoyable recreational activity. The lounge and dining areas also offer an open fireplace, adding atmosphere to entertaining. On those occasions when you must be inside, you will appreciate how the windows invite the outside in and the careful use of timber, natural colours and materials ensures the home maintains harmony with it’s natural surroundings.
An equipped bore supplies water for all outside use and the two toilets, while 45,000litres or rainwater storage services the needs of the home. Two 9.0m x 6.0m sheds provide ample storage space for vehicles and equipment, with one having high clearance for a caravan or truck.
The accompanying photos are but a brief overview of what this property offers and only your personal inspection will provide an insight into a lifestyle that could be yours.
