Description
The Ultimate Hideaway
This one-of-a-kind home offers a rare lifestyle in one of the most beautiful parts of the coast, with unsurpassed views across Backstairs Passage to Kangaroo Island and Yorke Peninsula.
Featured in Fleurieu Living Magazine, Spring 2012 and on the US website www.houzz.com in 2013, this is a retreat for people wanting a simpler lifestyle with authenticity and serenity.
Custom built using rammed earth and local stone, the home embraces the surrounding environment through its design and features. The thermal mass of the rammed earth makes the house almost soundproof and enables it to retain consistent temperature throughout the year. There is no need for air conditioning, and in winter a Jetmaster open fire provides a warm ambiance. There is an abundant wood supply on the property.
The dwelling offers open-plan living, raked ceilings and glass windows that open to access a timber deck that looks out to the sea. Facing due west, the sunsets are spectacular. The shower, with a luxury rain-head, features sliding doors that can be opened to give a feeling that you are showering outside!
Separate from the house is a stone and re-cycled timber studio measuring 6 metres square. It could readily be converted to additional accommodation, or kept as a studio/gallery with great character.
The garden has been featured in several magazines and most recently in "Australian Coastal Gardens" by well-known garden designer and writer Myles Baldwin. It was also part of the Australian Open Gardens
scheme 2013.
There is an abundance of bird life ranging from tiny blue wrens to wedge tailed eagles, and kangaroos range across the hills and in the valley, coming almost to the front deck in the early mornings.
Privacy assured on the gently sloping land of 2.07ha (5 acres) approx, with scattered mature gums.
For a personal inspection or further details please call Graham Lander on 0408 845 702

Property Code: 460
