13 rolling acres the heart-filling full stop to a renovated and extended bungalow that lets the valley rule and the barn-style pavilion plan every occasion, under the vines.
Beyond the circular driveway, the charming home's rear weatherboard addition maps out the views it also leads you indoors to the modern-country warmth of a shaker-style kitchen that knows who's arriving, and keeps tabs on the valley, living and dining areas, cosied by a combustion fire.
Substantial solar power, a Tesla battery, and contemporary comforts instil an instant past-meets-present feeling into this character-rich four-bedroom family home one with so many grounding benefits.
The endearing French doors to the sweeping rear deck, the secret garden pockets that steal shade, frame a view, and invite you to sit while the valley disappears in a cloud of winter mist. And then, the detached studio/ barn a crowd favourite that steps in for parties and barbecues with its paved terrace and outdoor spa, or as an occasional bedsit for guests.
Nowhere misses the money shot views, and the treehouse is every kids' dream.
Enter the front door, and the country calm is magic. Polished timber floors, picture rails, leadlight and four big bedrooms, two with character fireplaces and two with ensuites. The primary wing retreats to lavish legroom, a walk-in robe plus a chic ensuite, and an exclusive garden escape through linen-swept French doors.
There's not just lifestyle in abundance here, there's fulfillment. Friends spilling out to the vine-clad verandah, the seclusion of spa time or fireside fun under the stars, and a rinse beneath the very private, very rustic outdoor shower.
Just moments from Mylor and minutes from Hahndorf, it's a haven that doesn't alienate or disconnect you from the daily grind.
Instead: birdlife, native flora, orchids and bushland, free kindling, potting sheds, wicking beds, a huge chicken coop, and paddocks waiting to be grazed. Home is where the heart is, and this captivating acreage holds all the charm to string you along.
