If so this may be just the property you have been searching for.

The home is set on a large 931m2 allotment with 2 street frontages, in a leafy easy care garden at the rear of the property that includes a variety of fruit trees, a couple of almond trees and numerous deciduous trees that offer both privacy and allow the winter sun to warm the home yet keep the heat of the summer sun out. There is an organic vegetable patch at the front of the property which supplies an array of tasty fresh vegetables. Both the front and rear gardens are maintained by an extensive irrigation system. More than 20 species of birds call the gardens of the property home.

The double cream brick two storey dwelling has a large living area on each floor and up to 6 bedrooms in total (3 on each level).
The open plan upper level with sliding doors to the full length balcony offers great views of the bay and also includes a modern kitchen, an updated bathroom as well as a rear balcony overlooking the stunning rear gardens. A Fujitsu Inverter reverse cycle air-conditioner ensures year round comfort. Easy care polished timber floors add to the ambience of this level.

The lower level features a large living area with sliding glass doors overlooking the gardens, front and back. There is also another updated bathroom.

To the rear of the allotment you will find the garage with an adjacent garden studio. The bright and airy studio comes complete with timber floating floors, a separate storage room and a powder room. It is currently used as a studio and guest quarters but with little effort could be reconfigured as separate accommodation, a granny flat, B&B or teenage retreat (stcc).

There is 36,000 litres of rainwater storage, 27,000 of which are plumbed to the home which keeps the present owners self sufficient for up to 8 months of the year.

The home offers a number of entertaining options both indoors and outdoors and a multitude of options for any prospective purchaser. Could this be the ideal permanent escape from the hustle and bustle, a fantastic weekend getaway, a holiday home investment, or live in the home and hire out the studio as a B&B (stcc)?

The home is located within easy reach of major retail centres, schools, medical facilities, and many tourist destinations in a beautiful coastal Fleurieu Peninsula setting, all this and just over an hour from Adelaide Airport and 75 minutes to the CBD.

An inspection is highly recommended to appreciate all that this home has to offer.
