BRAMBLE FARM

A Timeless Adelaide Hills Estate - Where Heritage, Elegance & Country Living Unite An extraordinary country estate of enduring beauty, rich history and remarkable versatility, set amongst more than 10 hectares of picturesque Adelaide Hills countryside. There are properties that impress, and then there are properties that leave a lasting impression. Bramble Farm is undoubtedly one of the latter. Steeped in history and beautifully positioned within the highly sought-after Cudlee Creek district, this magnificent rural holding presents a rare opportunity to secure an established country estate where old-world charm, contemporary refinement and the natural beauty of the Adelaide Hills come together in perfect harmony. At its heart stands a captivating stone residence dating back to circa 1890, a home that has gracefully evolved through generations. In 2009, a substantial renovation and extension transformed the original dwelling into an expansive country residence, thoughtfully marrying its historic origins with the scale, comfort and sophistication expected of modern luxury living. The result is a home of warmth, presence and understated grandeur - a testament to the dedication, vision and years of careful work invested by its owners. Beyond the principal residence, a second substantial home, extensive shedding, established infrastructure and breathtaking rural scenery create an exceptional lifestyle offering with possibilities as diverse as the landscape itself. The Main Residence - A Celebration of Heritage and Contemporary Elegance From the moment you approach the beautiful stone homestead, its timeless character and commanding country presence are immediately apparent. Traditional stonework, a distinctive roofline and generous timber verandahs evoke the romance of a bygone era, while the beautifully executed extension introduces an entirely new dimension of space and sophistication. Step inside and discover a residence where character and comfort have been considered in equal measure. The magnificent open-plan living, dining and kitchen domain forms the centrepiece of the home. Impressive in both scale and presentation, this expansive space features polished timber flooring, elegant architectural detailing, generous natural light and a wonderful sense of openness. At its centre, a Nectre slow-combustion heater creates a welcoming atmosphere through the cooler Adelaide Hills seasons, while ceiling fans and thoughtfully incorporated heating solutions enhance year-round comfort. The substantial kitchen has been designed for those who appreciate the art of cooking and entertaining. Beautiful timber cabinetry, extensive preparation surfaces and an oversized island bench combine timeless country styling with impressive functionality. Quality appointments include Kleenmaid gas and induction cooktops with individual extraction systems, a built-in Kleenmaid coffee machine, twin St George wall ovens, a dishwasher and generous pantry storage. Whether preparing intimate family meals or entertaining a gathering of friends, this beautifully appointed space offers an effortless connection between culinary creativity and relaxed country living. The adjoining living and dining areas provide remarkable flexibility, allowing family life and entertaining to unfold comfortably on a grand scale. An additional lounge offers a more intimate retreat, while other rooms comprise of enchanting period features, including open fireplaces to the main and secondary bedrooms. The main bedroom provides a private sanctuary, complemented by a walk-in robe and ensuite, while a beautifully presented bathroom with twin vanities adds a further touch of refinement.

Everywhere you look, Bramble Farm offers another opportunity to slow down and embrace the pleasures of country living. The Second Residence - Independence, Comfort and Opportunity Adding significantly to the estate's appeal is a second, separately established residence, offering outstanding flexibility for extended family, multigenerational living or other uses, subject to any necessary approvals. Originally constructed in 1981, with a substantial lounge extension completed in 1994 and renovations undertaken in 2010, this home provides comfortable and welcoming accommodation within the same beautiful rural environment. Its own living spaces, functional kitchen, pantry, gas cooking facilities and a combination of combustion, gas and split-system heating and cooling provide practical everyday comfort. Ceiling fans throughout, undercover vehicle parking, a garden shed and a verandah complete with a potbelly stove further enhance its appeal. A substantial Besser block dividing wall provides separation between the two residences, with a connecting walkway allowing convenient access. For families seeking the freedom to live close together while retaining individual space, this is an increasingly desirable and valuable feature.
