Inspect by registered appointment. Contact Agent.

Built in 1935, with provenance linked to the original Nicholls family, Amarina is a flexible, yet majestic lifestyle property. Combined with a magnificent representation of a classic Tudor, it offers a very private and secluded 20 acres in the Adelaide Hills only 25 minutes to the CBD. Fully established by the current owners, it is well served with minimal maintenance but will easily scale up, if a higher output of production is the desire. Developed with diversity, self-sufficiency and in sympathy with the natural environment, this represents a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire something truly unforgettable.

Things we love:

– Relax as you turn past your “new local” – The Scenic Hotel. A couple of turns and you are at the end of your own dead-end road, you’re at home – private, captivating, enchanting.
– Drive in on the right. You’re now on an extensive horseshoe driveway. Lined with various producing fruit, nut, and ornamental trees, past your picturesque trout and yabby stocked dam with private jetty and around the bend, you are greeted by the ever-enchanting façade of a character laden Tudor – your home.
– Approach to the home is charming and traditional – a feeling that flows through the whole property. The extensive verandas are spacious and double as a place to relax and unwind. Immaculately restored the red pine keyhole entry foyer is central to all areas.
– Well considered, high on quality and function, elegant and understated, the kitchen/meals set the clear tone for the whole property. Rare and repurposed WA Karri adds a richness against the crisp white cabinetry. Like many facets of the property the Stanley oven multitasks at keeping the house warm in winter. Complete with wet back, it is connected to the hot water service.
– Formal and informal lounge/sitting rooms offer space for parents and children alike.
– Adjacent the family room, sits the Wisteria covered pergola.
– With all the producing elements of the property, it makes sense that the freestone Cellar/Cave adjacent the outdoor entertaining is easily accessible to have halcyon days/evenings with friends. Perfect for storing wine/olives/preserves it adds to the sense of old-style hospitality and a richness of sharing rarely encountered today.
– The traditional master is completed with built in robes and carpet for underfoot comfort
– Three further generous size bedrooms can accommodate children and guests alike
– Bathroom two embraces the double purpose so often seen throughout the home, seamlessly housing the laundry facilities.
– Traditional main bathroom with large bath
– Formal dining with open fireplace – great for winter entertaining
– Slow combustion in the sitting room adding further charm and function to year-round entertaining.

The Grounds:

– Stunning in every regard, it is a perfect blend of form, function and a love and respect for the land
– The sheer diversity of plantings will exceed all expectations, from vanilla persimmon to kiwi, berries to avocados, olives to your own vineyard, table grapes to curry bushes. chestnuts to macadamias, rhubarb to beans, mint to figs, prepare to be amazed at your very own “Garden of Eden”
– Merlot/Cab Sav vineyard produces up to 360L – 400L per year
– Producing Olive Grove – a mixture of Verdale and Kalamata
– Mature wood lot of approx. 5000 gums – you’ll never be beholden to a wood yard again
– Purpose built fire pit area next to the kitchen garden takes in elevated views among treetops.
– 15m x 3.5m inground pool with stunning vineyard outlook is perfect for those summer days
– The picturesque dam, complete with jetty has been stocked with Trout and supplies water to irrigate the grounds. Complete with winter creek “overflow” it is a main feature of the property both in resource and aesthetic
– Extensive shedding and garaging fulfil all the requirements of car accommodation, high clearance carport for caravan/boats/ storage garages, woodsheds and workshops
– 100,000 L rainwater tank supplies water to the home
– 5kW Solar

Set amongst stunning bush walking tracks and close to many bespoke hills wineries & cellar doors , walking distance to The Scenic Hotel, 10 minutes to the Magill Shopping Centre and 25 minutes to the CBD, this really is a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire a legacy property – an unforgettable gift that will keep on giving for generations to come.
