There are no comparisons to an estate echoing the romance of an Italian lakeside retreat in the arms of Adelaide Hills' seclusion, encompassing two acres, two titles, and just a 10-minute drive to The Tollgate.
Perched at the tip of Coromandel's quiet no-through road, the tree-lined approach is the property's first moment of theatre; the next, is the stone-clad four-bedroom homestead and its unfolding lakeside setting.
Originally built by SA Railways to service steam trains, the vast lake fills and recedes via twin spillways connecting to Aldgate Creek, that in turn preserve its constant, calming presence.
Today it's a living centrepiece.
Thanks to the charming home's later addition, the c.2003 build boasts two complementary stone-clad outbuildings that include two self-sufficient apartments – one above the dual garage, and one within the larger building offering extra garaging for up to four cars – including a motor home.
Which therefore makes 'The Lake House' future-proof poetry – a legacy ready to meet the family's needs or to host live-in or short-term guests at the drop of a suitcase.
Its quality is unquestionable. Entry leadlight, polished hardwood floors, lofty ceilings, and stunning bay windows define the home's enduring style. Its pliable footprint floating past a home office/sitting room, a guest bedroom with garden-viewing French doors, and into an expansive open plan living, meals and kitchen wing drawn to its idyllic lake views via bi-folding glass doors.
The payback is instant tranquillity – where formal gardens wrap the paved, north-facing alfresco.
You'll cook from a granite-swathed kitchen hosting shaker-style joinery, a huge freestanding Smeg gas cooker and dishwasher; you'll retreat to a primary suite with water views through enchanting bay windows - a private ensuite, with bath, a pivot away via double doors.
Bedroom two delights with custom inset bunk beds and room to grow as the family does, while the modern laundry delivers double duty as a second bathroom.
Ample guest parking, feature and sensor garden lighting, a high-quality bore, mains and rainwater supply, plus automatic fully stationed irrigation are all but a hint of this estate's care and calibre.
An incredibly rare opportunity, one destined to drive interest from interstaters who have quietly cottoned on to the lifestyle secrets the Adelaide Hills hide. This is one of the best.
One we doubt you'll find again thanks to the lifecycle its own lake creates. Autumn colour, winter romance, a cooler summer climate (in contrast to the plains), with kookaburras, golden whistlers and wood ducks, and redfin, yabbies and turtles that surface while you row the dinghy or relax on the deck.
Whether your jam is wine and cheese, weddings and photography, or purely the calm of exclusive water views, a private estate of wonder awaits.
