Immortalised on the cover of Australian House & Garden in 2014, this captivating masterpiece of Red Hill's original heritage, 'Crabapple Cottage' commands approximately 7 acres of sublime hinterland, balancing its weatherboard pedigree with lifestyle infrastructure against a panorama of rolling green hills.
Understated luxury meets historic craftsmanship within the home, where a meticulous renovation celebrates raw character and modern scale. Classic geometry is honoured through elevated ceiling heights, detailed plasterwork, and solid timber underfoot, grounding two entertaining domains that open out to an expansive timber deck and a self-cleaning, solar-heated swimming pool.
A marble kitchen equipped with Smeg appliances deliberately frames the undulating hinterland vista, while a lower-level footprint introduces a dedicated media room, mudroom entry, and a workshop/machinery garage with direct drive-in access from the grounds. The property's agricultural footprint features a thriving 120-tree lemon orchard, complemented by established groves of limes, figs, pomegranates, grapefruits, and oranges, alongside extensive raised veggie boxes and additional fruit trees.
An unparalleled playground for all ages, the property boasts an in-ground trampoline, expansive open-air play spaces, and a Goalrilla floodlit half-court basketball court, balanced by the practical inclusion of a tandem carport, ample water storage, and extensive heavy-duty shedding. Capturing peaceful outlooks over the biodynamic Mock Red Hill orchard, this lifestyle escape sits a short meander from Red Hill Primary School and Nordie, with Flinders and the Peninsula's finest wineries within easy reach.
The property's working orchard and primary production credentials may offer tax advantages worth exploring with your advisor.
