Passing by local wineries Blefari Wines and Whisson Lake Winery on the way, the drive to 25 Gully Road Carey Gully is nothing short of spectacular. Neighbouring cherry orchards line the boundary and give a glimpse into the private sanctuary that awaits.
Looking like something out of a countryside novel, Blue Wren Cottage is a delightful feast for the eyes as soon as you drive down the secluded driveway and enter the most magical garden setting. Set upon almost 1.5 acres (5700sqm) the established lush gardens are meticulously maintained and create a backdrop for the homestead that sits beyond. The delightful wide return verandah family home has been extended and renovated to accommodate flexible family living whilst taking advantage of the idyllic location.
At the front of the home, teenagers and children have their own space with three bedrooms, a family bathroom and large living room overlooking the front gardens through picturesque windows. To the rear a chefs entertaining kitchen complete with Miele appliances, stone benchtops and white cupboards overlooks the family and dining room, with room for all the family to gather and enjoy time together. French Western Red Cedar doors lead to the outdoor verandah where summer nights on the deck can be enjoyed by many. A large undercover pergola area overlooks the expansive back lawns and outdoor pizza oven.
A separate master bedroom wing provides flexibility to the family floor plan and allows for complete privacy from the other bedrooms. Parent’s can soak up the rear garden views from the adjoining ensuite that has a jet soaker bathtub, double shower with two shower heads, and separate toilet. An outside converted room is now an art space for the families talented children, but can be utilised as an additional rumpus room, games room, or even a unique Air BNB space (STCC) for the neighbouring wineries. Meandering through the pathways and walking the grounds of this property you will find an array of plum, fig, apple and lemon trees, a chicken coop, ample shedding, and complete privacy yet still close to all the local hill amenities. Weekends are made for relaxing. Stop in for a pizza at Lost in a Forest at nearby Uraidla then visit the newly renovated Uraidla Hotel. A quick 10 minute drive to Stirling then an afternoon walk at Mount Lofty. Live and breath the Adelaide Hills from Carey Gully.
