A LEAFY LIFESTYLE ON FIVE ACRES

** This property is part of our "Lock & Key Collection" which offers you access to exclusive, off-market homes that never make it to the public portals.

UNLOCK THE DETAILS
Set amongst beautifully established gardens and mature trees on approximately five acres, this substantial brick home delivers the space, flexibility and peaceful surroundings that make lifestyle living so appealing. Positioned on the edge of Mount Gambier, the property feels wonderfully removed from the everyday while keeping the conveniences of town within easy reach.

From the moment you step through the front door, the home makes an impression. A striking feature brick wall and beautiful cedar-panelled ceiling introduce a warm, character-filled interior, while two generous living areas positioned on either side of the entry immediately highlight the scale and versatility of the floorplan.

Commonly known as the piano room, the first living area is a fabulous space for an office, entertaining or simply retreating at the end of the day. Double glass doors allow the room to be closed for privacy, while a near-new slow combustion wood heater creates warmth and atmosphere through the cooler months. A built-in bar completes the space, making it equally suited to relaxed evenings at home or entertaining family and friends.

The second living zone is equally impressive in size. Its generous L-shaped design creates the main lounge area, with another slow combustion wood heater complemented by a split-system air conditioner for year-round comfort. With two substantial living spaces, there is room for the entire family to spread out without losing the sense of connection that makes a home feel welcoming.

A small glassed hallway leads from the main living zone to one of the home's most valuable features — a cleverly converted self-contained space positioned beneath the main roof. Generous enough to provide both bedroom and living areas, it includes built-in cupboards, its own ensuite and a compact kitchenette all with instantaneous gas hot water. This flexible addition provides an excellent option for an elderly parent, independent teenager, extended family or guests, offering separation and privacy while remaining connected to the main home.

At the heart of the floorplan, the spacious kitchen embraces a classic country feel and is designed for everyday practicality. A wall oven, convection cooktop and dishwasher are accompanied by a walk-in pantry, while a small breakfast bar overlooks the dedicated dining area. There is an inviting homeliness to this space — the kind of kitchen where weekend breakfasts linger and the smell of freshly baked bread feels perfectly at home.

Sliding doors extend the dining area outdoors, creating an easy connection between inside and out and making entertaining wonderfully uncomplicated.

A passageway leads to the home's bedroom wing, where three further large bedrooms are positioned alongside the renovated main bathroom. The main bedroom is particularly generous, complete with a large walk-in robe and spacious ensuite, while bedrooms two and three each feature built-in robes. The renovated family bathroom incorporates a separate bath, shower, toilet and vanity, while the larger-than-average laundry provides excellent storage and is complemented by an additional separate toilet and basin.

The sense of scale continues outdoors. An undercover entertaining area extends from the rear of the home before flowing to an open patio complete with a built-in pizza oven and established succulent garden. It is easy to see why this has been a much-loved gathering place over the years — a setting made for long lunches, homemade pizzas, celebrations and relaxed evenings beneath the open sky.

The well-maintained backyard provides plenty of room for children and pets, while established gardens and an impressive collection of productive trees and blooms add another layer to the lifestyle on offer. Lime, lemon, fig, kiwi and avocado are among the fruit trees found throughout the property, complemented by a lovely shade house where banana and mango trees further showcase the care that has gone into creating the grounds.

Adding further practicality to the property is an excellent combination of water sources. Rainwater is connected to the home, with mains water also available, while the property additionally benefits from a bore. Together, these provide valuable flexibility for everyday household use and the ongoing needs of an established lifestyle property.

For those needing serious shedding and storage, the property continues to deliver. A double carport sits to the front of the home, while a substantial shed measuring approximately 7m x 17m offers a lined interior, workshop area, mezzanine, concrete flooring, lighting, power and approximately three-metre clearance roller doors. Additional wood and utility sheds provide further practical storage for the equipment and essentials that naturally come with acreage living.

Beyond the immediate house yard, the land spreads beautifully across approximately five acres. A fenced side paddock enjoys street frontage and separate access and incorporates a trough and cattle race, while the large rear paddock is well fenced and provides valuable space for animals or livestock. Whether the vision includes a few cattle, family pets, room for children to explore or simply the freedom that comes with having land around you, there is wonderful flexibility here.

At the front of the property, a stunning leafy garden frames the home and creates a private, welcoming arrival. Mature trees, established plantings and carefully maintained grounds give the property a sense of permanence that can take many years to create.

THE KEY LOCATION
Positioned on the edge of Mount Gambier on a no-through road, this lifestyle property combines the breathing room of approximately five acres with convenient access to the city's everyday services, schools, shopping and amenities. Walking access to the nearby Blue Lake precinct and its picturesque walking trails add another dimension, providing a beautiful setting for family walks, outdoor adventures or the daily exercise routine.

BEYOND THE DOOR
This is a property designed for a family that wants more — more room inside, more freedom outside and greater flexibility for the years ahead. From its four-bedroom layout and multiple living zones to the self-contained family space, exceptional shedding, productive gardens and well-fenced paddocks, every part of the property contributes to a lifestyle that is both practical and rewarding.

Generous in scale yet warm in character, it offers the increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy established acreage living right on the edge of Mount Gambier. The gardens are already flourishing, the infrastructure is in place and there is space here for family, animals, hobbies and entertaining — a property ready for its next owners to make their own memories.
