Cockatoo Valley SA 5351

Well fenced on all perimeters of the property and set back from the road with a feature circular driveway to provide ample parking for visitors, this parcel of paradise is immediately impressive. A wide entry separates the king size master & ensuite from the front living and enjoys uninterrupted country views of fields, blossom and gum trees.

In the heart of this home, a large family/dining with walls of glass doors opens to an impressive all-weather entertaining patio with honed concrete flooring, bud lighting & bar bench to the kitchen ~ perfect for the largest of gatherings. Adjacent the alfresco area is a magnificent landscaped open-air fire pit zone, which is a highlight of the rear gardens. Winter or summer entertaining surrounded by nothing but gums, greenery, blue sky and uninterrupted peaceful views of the fenced rear garden with separate fenced paddock, will make relaxing at home a breeze.

The side of the residence has a separate fenced dam ~ bring the yabby nets, large chicken coop area, and huge variety of fruit and vegetable plantings in garden boxes for that desirable self-sustainable lifestyle. A BioCycle system is invaluable for irrigating the native garden beds, whilst mains water and 2 x 22,500 litre rainwater tanks are plumbed directly to the entire home.

Throughout this steel framed very desirable family home, the craftmanship that Metricon Homes is renowned for is evident. Large rooms, quality fixtures & fittings, custom cabinetry, deep cornices and wood trim oozes lasting quality and timeless style. The modern & bright kitchen adjacent to the family/dining has up to the minute cabinetry with feature glass doors, double sink, double pantry, under-bench oven with glass cooktop & dishwasher. It provides direct access to yet another outside alfresco area with TV power point and sliding doors into the large double garage, which could be utilised as a home gym/rumpus room.

With ceiling fans to all bedrooms & formal living, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning and downlights throughout, WIR to master bedroom and built-in robes & carpet to the remaining 3 bedrooms, there is nothing to do within the home but move in and enjoy your new country estate lifestyle.

Walk around the property to explore and discover even more value ~ a huge shed 18m x 9m and 5m high with 3 phase power & enormous double doors, is large enough for earthmoving equipment, caravan, car, trailer and boat storage plus more. Create stables for the second adjacent paddock ~ perfect for horse agistment, sheep or hobby crops. The choice is yours in this perfect country setting with nothing but nature in view ~ beautiful gums & native shrubbery, kangaroos and wonderful birdlife that you can actually hear!

With nearby country pubs, fabulous wineries & the Barossa so close by, excellent schools including prestigious Trinity College, as well as the facilities of traditional country style shopping & dining in Gawler township, yet an easy commute to the Adelaide CBD ~ just 50 minutes (approx.) away by train or Freeway ~ this is a once in a lifetime affordable opportunity to purchase the ultimate country lifestyle in a highly coveted location!
