If Blewitt Springs is the best kept secret in the McLaren Vale region, then this much loved horse property - with pool and all - is living proof on some 10 acres with the vineyard and sea views to match its sense of magical isolation, just 45 minutes from Adelaide's CBD.
We're talking about the kind of rolling valley views usually reserved for SA tourism promotional posters - and made only so by the rich earth that puts our wines on the map and makes it green, all year round.
And what better way to see it all than from an extended brick, 3-bedroom abode with that comfy, welcoming 'country home' feel with paddocks, stables, day shelters, arena, shedding, workshop and more at its feet.
On a clear day you can see the waters that hit the Fleurieu Peninsula - even from an updated kitchen with composite benchtops, breakfast bar, dishwasher and floating timber look floors that extend to the neighbouring casual meals/ family zone.
Consider the kitchen the conduit between the 2-bedroom kids' wing at one side of the home and the master wing addition - with walk-in robe and ensuite - at the other.
What was the original master bedroom is now a formal dining room and separate home office; further elevating the functionality of a home that draws everyone to the lounge room with soaring cathedral style ceilings and cosy combustion fireplace.
In summer, the family is drawn outside and into a solar heated pool with a kid-friendly wading zone and an alfresco pavilion with a penchant for hosting a sun-safe BBQ surrounded by colourful gardens.
Winery hopping one day, horse riding and swimming the next. The best kept secret indeed.
