Escape to the peace and privacy of this unique and picturesque rural retreat, perfectly positioned on 4.18 hectares of beautifully maintained land in a peaceful, community-minded cul de sac. Only 10 minutes from Stirling and Hahndorf, 15 from the main service centre of Mt Barker and an easy 30 minute commute to the city for work or entertainment; Bradbury really is a hidden gem in the Adelaide Hills.
This solidly built, yet light and tidy 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom double-brick bungalow offers a cosy, low-maintenance home with everything you need to enjoy and expand your new country lifestyle. A new NBN Skymuster satellite service and 4G mobile supports a home office or well-connected "tree-change", while 5 primary schools within 5 km caters to the needs of a young family. Whether you're seeking a serene retreat, a manageable hobby farm or a true family adventure, this property has the space, well-planned infrastructure, neighbourhood services and convenience to suit your needs.
Designed with a sustainable lifestyle in mind, the land has been organically managed, lightly grazed and thoughtfully developed. Multiple north-facing building site options provide scope for your future net zero rural homestead. This much loved property has had only two owners in nearly 80 years and, (with an eye on climate change), more recent infrastructure includes generous rainwater storage and underground reticulation, header tanks, stock troughs and a waste-water treatment and recycling system to ensure a reliable year-round water supply. The three dams, fed by two winter creeks, supplement the property's extensive water resource.
Excellent facilities are already in place for both gardening, livestock and mechanical pursuits. The property is fully ringlock stock-fenced into three main paddocks and a rabbit proof veggie patch (all with watering points) while a generous 4-bay concreted Olympic shed, separate livestock shelter and a well sealed shipping container provide the workshop, vehicle storage, secure grain and feed store and ample work space to get you started right away. (Case International 60 HP tractor and 6 ft slasher included for the right price.)
