Quintessential country retreat

New Offers Close Date ** Mon 4th Nov 2pm** Calling all creationists, stargazers, dreamers, and doers. The "heart place" is now available to carve a lifestyle in an environment that needs to be felt as well as seen. The antithesis of sleek luxury, this rustic and traditional country homestead has been creatively upgraded using the fundamentals of upcycling and repurposing. Located in Mt McKenzie, Barossa Valley it sits far enough from the township and services of Angaston to be secluded yet close enough to have everything you need within a ten-minute drive. Elevated on approx. ten acres and extended in 1978 the home is complimented by many original, enchanting outbuildings. What We Love: The Home: • Built in the early 1900's the home retains all its character and charm whilst maintaining a traditional yet flexible floorplan. • The centralized bathroom is complete with bath and separate w/c. • In keeping with the era, the home is completed with large "eat in" country style kitchen and external laundry. • Extended in the late '70's the upper level is currently disposed as the Master Suite. With floor to ceiling windows, the daily "must do" is to take in awe inspiring moon rises, sun rises, brilliant night skies and of recent times, spectacular thunderstorms, auroras, and comet displays. A private west facing balcony serves as a private retreat and a vantage point for the sun setting, whilst the room is carpeted for underfoot comfort. Finished with slow combustion and split system a/c for year-round comfort, its highly likely you'll rarely want to come down. • The lower level comprises three generously proportioned bedrooms, and formal sitting – all carpeted for underfoot comfort. • Dedicated dining space adjacent the kitchen overlooks distant views. • TV/Lounge area adjacent the dining/kitchen is completed with slow combustion and serves as a cosy living hub. • Extensive wrap around veranda offers further outdoor living spaces and ideal aspects to wind down and relax at the end of the day.
