Is this the Hills haven you are looking for?
Set on five acres of prime Adelaide Hills land, this Aldgate property offers an ideal opportunity to enjoy a slice of the good life.
Adelaide Hills living doesn’t get much better than this 1900s stone cottage, set on five acres.
Vendors John and Annie Prowse have called the Aldgate property home for the last eight years, after having fallen “in love” with it while searching for a suitable Hills haven.
“We had just retired and thought we wanted to get up (from the city) and have some more space,” Mr Prowse says. “The old stone cottage was an attraction and there is plenty of space here, including a couple of paddocks that run down to the creek.”
The beautiful main house features the original building, comprising a central hallway and four large rooms, with original Baltic pine floorboards, open fireplaces and lead lighting.
A rear extension features an open-plan kitchen-living-dining space, with garden views from every angle.
Exposed stone walls lend a warm, “homely” feeling that is ideal for year-round entertaining.
A veranda and solar-heated salt-chlorinated pool are perfect for lazy summer days while the garden contains a mix of deciduous trees, a vegetable and raspberry patch, fruit trees and flowers.
A generously-sized studio on the property contains a kitchenette and a bedroom with ensuite.
