As you step along the flagstones to the 100 y.o. front door and open into the warm glow of the turret entry, you know this is a unique and exclusive space. The kitchen with a very large picture window, looks over the rear yard of white gravel paths, sandstone steps and hedged shrubs. The timber bench tops are a blend of old and new solid oak and there is a rare porcelain Butler’s sink. The tiled floors and walls, Italian Lofra cooktop and oven and sit up bench creates a great space for cooking and entertaining. The adjoining meals and living area enjoy the comfort of a combustion heater in winter and glass doors which open onto a sandstone courtyard, complete with Roman pillars surrounding a water, feature for summer. Ceiling fans - exposed timber beams – feature tiles The stand out feature of this home is the circular turret which houses the wide spiral staircase, connecting upper and lower living. There are 2 bedrooms with rendered feature walls downstairs and a convenient bathroom/laundry adjoining. Reaching the landing upstairs, you will find a second living area which branches out to a further 2 bedrooms plus study (or 5th). The master suite ‘of course’ has French doors which open onto the rear balcony overlooking the rear yard. The grand bathroom has feature tiles, a deep bath, timber vanity and Roman pillars. Ornate iron work – rustic old gates – hedged archways Set behind the hedged lavender and rosemary is a separate Garden studio, ideal for getting creative or could suit a teenage retreat. Beyond the hedge lies a Mediterranean orchard of 23 fruit trees with olives, figs, citrus and veggie area. There is 2 car parking and the block is fully fenced and established. Set on a 1000m2, quarter acre allotment with plenty of room for kids to play. 5 bedrooms – 2 bathrooms – 2 living areas If earthy rendered walls with antique blue features, terracotta earns among herbs and flowers and vine covered courtyards with sandstone pavers gives you the feel of home - the current owner feels the same and has spent a decade creating this stunning Italian County Villa.

This Villa has a true Mediterranean feel and cannot be compared with its surrounds. Conveniently located only 15 min to Mt Barker or Murray Bridge and 45 min to the City.
