Peace and harmony with stunning hill’s views.
Situated on approximately 20.23 acres this delightful property is nestled between the historic townships of Clarendon, Meadows and McLaren Vale in picturesque Kangarilla.
The property is divided into several large paddocks, with good quality boundary (and internal dog proof) fencing, with access to paddocks via the property or rear road access. A large spring fed dam is home to many native birds, and provides all year-round water to paddocks and homestead gardens. The acreage is perfect for growing vines, grazing livestock, alpaca’s or horses, subject to feed and seasonal conditions, and will perfectly suit someone who is seeking a lifestyle that connects them to nature, while still being just 45 minutes from the CBD.
A 6.75Kw solar system array, paying a significant rebate, will substantially reduce home power costs. The home is backed up during power outages via the 6Kva generator with the electrical system professionally wired in as the power back-up solution. Security to the home is assured with the CCTV system with web-based accessibility, with 5 (of 8 camera capacity) in use. Adjacent to the Studio is a plumbed independently powered fire pump and hose reel for bushfire protection and double undercover carport [6.9 x 7.0m].
The renovated home compromises a separate entry, open plan kitchen / dine / living space, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. There is also a large fully self-contained studio with kitchen and bathroom and 4 extra-large multi-use sheds.
The open plan living space has French doors leading to an outside tiled patio area. The large country style kitchen has extensive timber cabinetry, a large island bench, quality appliances (including electric/gas range and steam/convection oven) for healthy and quick cooking, and a Nectre combustion wood heater that radiates a cosy ambience on those cold nights with ducted transfer vents. Reversible ceiling fans and a ducted evaporative air conditioner, with special bushfire proofing screens, adds to the all-season comfort of this home.
The Master Bedroom has French doors leading to a separate patio area to take in the breathtaking sunrises each morning, a wall of timber built in robes and reversible ceiling fan. The adjoining bathroom is a large multi-use space – there is an over-sized double shower and spa bath, and a laundry area with external access. One of the two remaining bedrooms has timber built in robes and a separate bathroom services these areas.
The property is extensively landscaped with mature plantings. At the side there is a pergola offering a quiet space. At the rear, full-grown trees and landscaped gardens offer shelter from the wind. At the rear, the gardens and tiered lawn areas are perfect for children’s play or for entertaining. Steps lead down to a natural stone fire pit with jarrah sleeper seating that overlooks the valley and adjoining vineyards.
Nearby is a newly established studio [8.0m x 6.9m] with large living space, bathroom and kitchen with its own reverse cycle air conditioner and very efficient slow combustion wood heater, with two remote controlled ceiling fans. The space is ideal for use as a granny flat, teenagers retreat, a home office or to offer overnight guests their own personal space. In front of the Studio, there is an undercover carport [6.9 x 7m] for two vehicles.
The many sheds absolutely deserve a mention!
Shed 1 [6.9m x 8.0m] has a powered workshop, concrete floor, industrial sink, and built-in mezzanine floor storage. Both the studio and workshop have solar powered automatic roof vents for efficient, free, ventilation on hot days.
Shed 2 [7.5m x 13.0m] has power, concrete floor and double sliding doors.
Shed 3 [7.5m x 13.0m] has a dolomite floor base and double sliding doors.
