This beautiful villa has so many features, it is hard to know where to start. It is positioned in the heart of Mt Barker on a manicured 1372m2 block which is very easy to maintain with the help of the gardener (once a month).
Features include:
1. A stone-fronted return verandah facade with soaring ceilings, arched hallway and baltic pine floors which ensure the best of its original features work alongside a series of thoughtful updates in a four-roomed original section that suddenly expands into the open-plan dream;
2. The property can be 3 or 4 bedrooms (all with luxurious new carpet) depending on whether you prefer a second Living Area inside keeping in mind it is geared to the second entertaining area outside where the Outdoor Kitchen leads into the landscaped rear yard;
3. Beautiful open plan kitchen/dining/lounge with high ceilings which provides a feeling of enormous space where polished porcelain flooring, custom cabinetry and the exposed original stone wall give the modern addition warmth, texture and a tangible link to the home's past;
4. A showpiece provencal-inspired kitchen with timber benchtops, a substantial island, extensive cabinetry, wine storage, a freestanding cooker and a broad garden outlook that keeps the cook connected to life indoors and out;
5. Two beautifully appointed bathrooms, one of which includes a freestanding claw-foot bath, brass fittings, a walk-through shower and traditional cabinetry, plus a second bathroom with twin vessel basins and dramatic black hexagonal tiling;
6. A covered entertaining pavilion equipped with a stainless-steel barbecue kitchen, ceiling fans and a wide servery window, creating a genuine all-season setting for celebrations, Sunday lunches and effortless summer hosting;
7. A remarkably deep, manicured backyard with a checkerboard paved terrace, framed by clipped hedging, stone-edged beds and thoughtfully selected plantings including established weeping apricots, productive lemon trees, a feature golden ash and a collection of rare plants contributing colour, shade and seasonal interest across the grounds;
8. Gated entry and extensive off-street parking leading to a further substantial powered six-car garage, offering outstanding capacity for a vehicle collection, workshop, storage or serious hobby pursuits;

10. Watch weekend sport unfold at the Mount Barker Oval, wander over for the regular market or continue through to Keith Stevenson Park, trails and wetlands, all without reaching for the car. The town centre, hospital, schools and daily shopping sit close by, while the wider Adelaide Hills and their cellar doors turn every free afternoon into an invitation to explore.
