A Private Hills Sanctuary... 151 Rake Road, Kersbrook

Sixteen private acres of native bushland, established gums and cleared paddocks in the heart of the Adelaide Hills, a rare offering of space, character and possibility for those craving a genuine country lifestyle.

The residence: Built circa 1992 with a substantial Hebel extension in rammed earth, mud brick, timber and glass, the home offers six bedrooms, four bathrooms, a study and two living areas. The newer wing adds two bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom and living space, ideal for extended family or independent living. A slow-combustion fireplace and two reverse-cycle ducted systems provide year-round comfort. Bathroom updates and cosmetic work are already underway, with the kitchen ready for your own stamp. Outside, a generous undercover alfresco area and three carport spaces complete the picture.

The land: Three cleared paddocks and two dams support hobby farming or grazing, while a gazebo, fire pit and camping areas make the most of the natural surrounds. Two sheds (6m x 9m with three-phase power, and 9m x 12m with partial insulation and concrete flooring) offer serious workshop and storage space. A 9kW solar system with 15kWh battery storage, plus rainwater capacity and dam pumps, support self-sufficient living.

Location: A tightly held pocket of Kersbrook, around 10 minutes to Williamstown, 15 to Lobethal and 35km from Adelaide, private, yet connected. Productive Rural Landscape zoning suits a range of rural lifestyle pursuits, subject to consents.

Multi-generational living, a hobby farm, or a peaceful escape, 151 Rake Road offers the space to build it around you.
