At the southern end of the fertile Lyndoch Valley set on the hilltop overlooking a dramatic patchwork of rural life, from the tall gums of Williamstown, across rolling hills, grazing fields and vineyards to the majestic vision of Mount Crawford Forest, the original stone home with extensive modern additions offers a taste of life as it was, enchanted by modern magic, a property on which to celebrate the great quality of life.
Relaxing and elevated with 360 degree rural views and set amongst a simply stunning garden of earthly delights, this turn of the century Villa is a sweet union of history with modern conveniences. The original portion of the home features up to four bedrooms (open fireplaces), a massive central lounge room, the original kitchen, currently used as an office, still has a wood stove and there is a modern family bathroom. Linked by a naturally light-filled games room, the new wing begins, marvelously married with high ceilings, ornate cornices and quality fittings. A luxurious master bedroom features a heritage style ensuite and walk-in robe with its own garden views.
Accessed through pairs of French doors off the games room, the open plan lifestyle hub of the home is lavished in light, every window looking out to postcard views. A superb French provincial style kitchen with thick timber tops, central island bench, stainless steel gas/electric cooker, elegantly lit overhead glass display cupboards and pantry with preparation area is an entertainers dream, with space for family dining and open to the beautiful casual living zone. Comfort is assured through all seasons with ducted heating and cooling throughout the home.
Life spills out to verandahs from all around the home, a sunroom to one side with multi-pane glass doors takes children out to play in the cubby house under the walnut trees and to explore the meandering maze of garden paths lined with hedges and a botanical wonderland of exotic flowering shrubs, climbing roses and ornamental fruit trees. Incredible far reaching views can savoured from any spot, whether whilst picnicking under one of the property's ancient gums or enjoying an alfresco lunch on the verandah with friends, sharing a glass of Shiraz from the property's own dry grown boutique vineyard. A wonderfully well preserved wine cellar is accessed from the verandah.
A grand old barn overloaded with character stands proud and strong with original tree trunk posts and timbers, shearing shed with old timber floors and stock yards, original timber stock feed bins and dairy still with its original timber bails. Part of the old milking shed has been recently converted to a tack room equipped with water and power. Further shedding includes a 5-bay shed and 3-bay car shed. Abundant rainwater storage captures run off from the huge roofed area on the property.
With undulating grazing areas, mains water and a shared dam, the property is ideal for viticulture, cattle, sheep, horses and alpacas. Three winter creeks, and a bore (unequipped and with underground power in place) further enhance this hilltop haven.
The property has potential for the establishing of a boutique wine sales outlet and the conversion of part of the house and or barn into self-catering accommodation units (subject to council consent).
A "one off" opportunity to purchase a unique lifestyle ideally located within each reach of Gawler, Adelaide and the Barossa towns.
