Picture this: A luxuriously renovated substantial stone homestead, an original restored fully self contained stone cottage, a sophisticated Pool guest house, all framing a sleek black galaxy in ground swimming pool, with spa jets and seating, overlooking a Jarah and Pine timber deck onto the sweeping valley of Wattle Flat.
The Irish settlers who farmed this land and built the original dwellings – the first in 1840 – would hardly recognize today’s luxurious lifestyle resort, not to mention the three remarkable Italian tiled bathrooms and professional Alby Turner kitchen in the main 1850′s homestead.
But they would be familiar with the spectacular valley view. The same compelling tree-studded landscape that captivates from the poolside viewing deck, the sweeping verandas and, inside, the grand formal lounge and relaxing master bedroom retreat. Beware; it will etch itself on your heart!
Friends will know to walk right in, sure of a warm welcome, a roaring log fire and a bed for the night. Accommodation is a plenty, tastefully renovated rooms in the homestead or step back in time to the original stone cottage. You may even choose the exotic pool house with caf doors which allow seamless integration within the pool terrace. By day, enjoy the views and serenity; by night, the magical LED display that transforms the digitally-salt chlorinated pool into a technicolor dream bath. Imagine the parties!
Used until recently for breeding pure Crabbet Arabians, the land could easily be integrated for sheep or cattle. It is currently divided into nine paddocks all with shelters with water aplenty at each trough. There is electric Bakelite and post and rail timber fencing, wide breezeways allow easy access for farm machinery. But wait, there is more: a round yard, two holding pens, a ringlock paddock, the old dairy tack-and-feed room, original renovated stables, various iron storage sheds and, as yet untouched, a magnificent stone shearing shed with attached hay barn, offering untold potential for further accommodation or a business venture.
The ridge above the homestead provides sweeping vistas across Yankalilla and Carrickalinga, all the way to Cape Jarvis and, on a clear day, Kangaroo Island. It has been earmarked as the perfect site for a manager’s house, subject to council approval, or to just enjoy on a glorious walk through the paddocks.
Brentwood Park is sure to impress even the most discerning buyer. It is luxury and quality from the front gate to the boundary fence. Complete with the largest bio-cycle septic tank available, mains water connected, a further 2 x 22,000-litre cement rain water storage tanks and secure keypad gate entry to the gum studded night lit driveway, find this breathtaking, no-expense-spared lifestyle property just five minutes from Myponga Beach, ten from Carrickalinga and Normanville, and a breezy fifty-minute commute from the Adelaide CBD.
All set on a total area of 10.41 ha (25.7236 Ac) – this is a superb acreage.
