Best offers by 12noon Wednesday 8th May (unless sold prior)

What a diversion. For the nature buff, farmer, those inspired by artisanal fare, or simply to bask in an alfresco sunset glow on the doorstep of a high-spec Metricon home with sea-viewing elevation…

These 469.25 acres (approx) are where your new paddock to plate, off-grid lifestyle lies.

One minute you'll spot Yorke Peninsula's Edithburgh ahead, the next you'll spy Mount Lofty's TV towers behind you; and from your gated and graded 1km driveway, is a 5-minute sojourn to the Myponga Reservoir trails.

Leaving the lightest footprint on its picturesque landscape, the colossal 5-bedroom home is bolstered by 11.4kW of solar, a 15kva generator, wood fire warmth, 60,000 gallons of rainwater, 3 dams, a natural spring, and zero reason to change a thing.

Less is more. It's also the name of its farm shop, treating tourists to wine and cheese, cocktails and pizza all washed down with monumental views; you could adopt the same paddock-to-plate philosophy.

Farmed, home-grown, wood-fired, fresh, or freshly caught - you name it, your completely self-sufficient, off-grid efficiency will support your bottom line where events can spill into gum-studded surrounds, under festoon lights, on a picnic rug, or in the designated cellar door/café space created to seat a crowd.

With infrastructure for livestock or commercial ventures, perhaps you'll take it further with farm stays, functions, a cellar door, or share your luxurious comforts with those who'll take the scenic 1-hour drive south of Adelaide for a taste of this idyllic lifestyle.

Experiment. Or simply experience it.

As a family home, life will entail sublime indoor/outdoor entertaining, two pizza ovens – one in the all-weather alfresco, one in the garden – and a colossal footprint of 3 living zones, up to 5 bedrooms, plus a master wing left indulgently alone to align with a study/parent's retreat.

With rural or sea views from every room, you'll converge on the kitchen centrepiece where hosting in sunlit style is a virtue from its alfresco servery, 3m island, vintage and stainless grand-scale cookers, plus a substantial butler's wing in full catering support.

Set between Carrickalinga and Sellicks Beach, where shouldering hills dip into the sea beside piercing coves and rocky bays - from where you sit, it's virtually your backyard. Throw caution to the wind, savour the magic of your seclusion, and follow your wanderlust for an exciting new world…
