For the horse enthusiast, nature lover, hobby farmer or sanctuary seeker, this 20acre property with views, dams, excellent infrastructure and ample paddocks for pursuits is a lifestyle opportunity that beckons excitement.
Tucked away in a hidden pocket of the Adelaide Hills, being somewhat a treasure to find, 'Airlea's' entrance begins with a sense grace; you know you've arrived somewhere special. Mature Ash, Golden Elms and Crepe Myrtle trees line the long driveway that meanders between paddocks - make sure to stop to say hello to the animals each time you pass by. Continuing through two electric gates- ideal for keeping the resident pooch safely at home, we follow the rise, up to a crest, where the '76 built ranch style home sits, purposefully capturing views from every window.
Wonderfully set up to carry any livestock, the entire external and internal fences are electric and in very good order. With a history of boutique agistment for up to 6 horses, this property has run a mix of cattle, sheep and horses with ease. The paddocks have been regularly maintained, weeds reduced, pasture improved with fertiliser and reseeded with Adelaide horse mix.
For the equines, 2 stables have undercover day yards with automatic water troughs and solar lights with a battery back-up that are timer controlled. An additional two day yards, a round yard with separate walk-in, walk-out box with yard, wash down bay, a shed for the float and a shed for the hay makes horse husbandry easy.
No need to worry about boggy patches or slippery surfaces here in this all-weather 60x40 arena, which has excellent drainage and an Adelaide Hills mix / recycled rubber surface (similar to bounce). Sprinklers are installed if required or they can be turned to irrigate the adjoining paddock.
Of the 20acres, it is estimated 16acres are cleared, leaving a lovely 'bush block' for exploring and a wildlife refuge. There are water troughs to all paddocks, fed by the huge 2million gallon (approx.) spring fed dam, which is an amazing attribute to the property and such a special place to enjoy.
The home of 3 bedrooms plus office is neat, tidy and ideal for farm life with tiled floors in the living room, where the wood fire takes centre stage. The king-sized master has a walk-in robe, ensuite and bedrooms 2&3 have built in robes. Both bathrooms are spacious and the deep bath is a perfect way to unwind for the day.
The kitchen offers plenty of storage, embraces a large gas cooktop with electric oven and rotisserie and has a high bench height, perfect for those with long legs or crook backs!
Reverse cycle air-conditioning throughout, 1.5kw solar with 50cent rebate, approx. 130,000L of rainwater storage just add to the long list of conveniences.
In addition, there's a beautiful stone outbuilding with refurbished staircase to a loft and a Metters oven, a stone ruin, a second dam, extensive irrigation, cattle yards with crush and lovely gardens. This property offers a seemingly endless array of enviable lifestyle qualities.
Inspection a must to fully appreciate!
