With 85 glorious acres of rolling countryside, big skies, and views that stretch all the way to the coast, 167 Lode Road makes a pretty convincing case for having it all and having plenty of room to enjoy it.
Elevated to make every inch of its outlook count, this custom C2000 Samalex home brings polish to the pastoral dream, pairing timeless country calibre with a setting that does all the talking.
A classic return veranda wraps its façade, while inside, high ceilings and picture windows invite the outside in, keeping natural light flowing and those far-reaching views firmly in the picture.
Living zones layer beautifully. A formal lounge makes winter something to look forward to, with a stone-clad fireplace setting the mood for slow evenings, while a generous family zone keeps the everyday moving and the conversation flowing.
And at the heart of it all, a country-style kitchen has the looks and the work ethic to match. Timber benchtops bring the warmth, high-end stainless-steel appliances handle the heavy lifting, and a wide stone-topped island is ready for everything from early morning coffees to a full house on Sunday.
Three bedrooms keep downtime well covered. The main suite claims its own private corner, complete with walk-in robe and ensuite, while two further bedrooms, a family bathroom, and separate laundry give everyone room to retreat and reset.
But with an outlook like this, staying inside might be the hardest part. A gabled pergola and vine-draped pavilion make a fine excuse to take every occasion outdoors, whether it's a long lunch that loses track of time, a glass of something local at sunset, or simply sitting back as the landscape puts on another show.
Established gardens bring greenery, privacy, and a sense of calm to the immediate homestead, while a freestanding studio gives work, hobbies, or creative pursuits a space of their own.
And beyond, the real scale of this property comes into focus.
All 85 acres unfold across four fenced, gum-studded paddocks, with room for livestock, hobby farming, or whatever your version of the good life looks like. Workshop studio, sheep yards, shearing shed, five dams (including one spring-fed), solar panels, and rainwater storage mean the groundwork is already in place to put all that land to good use.
Continue sheep farming, run a few head of cattle, saddle up for an afternoon ride, get serious about self-sufficiency, or simply enjoy the rare privilege of looking out and knowing it's all yours - the possibilities are as wide as the landscape itself.
Better still, freedom doesn't have to mean cutting ties with convenience. Meadows and Strathalbyn keep coffee, schools, and everyday essentials within easy reach, while the cellar doors and pubs of the Adelaide Hills and Fleurieu Peninsula make exploring your own backyard a weekend ritual. Even the CBD only sits an hour away - close enough when you need it while far enough to forget about.
Whatever the place, 167 Lode Road isn't just a change of address - it's a whole new way to live.
