Last Listing description (June 2024)

Pride of place on the top-tier of Crafers, showcasing panoramic views out across Belair National Park to the sea, perches Wonnaminta House. Built by the Hardy Family as a downsizer from the iconic Mount Lofty House, it's custodianship and configuration changed have several times before being painstakingly restored over by its current guardians. Now on the market for the first time in 50 years, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own not only a fascinating slice of Adelaide Hills history, but an epic and utterly unrivalled homestead.

Tiered storybook gardens and a sweeping driveway guide you to a truly awe-inspiring stone frontage with return veranda. You'd be forgiven for thinking you'd walked onto a film set or into a classic novel - it's a first impression that simply cannot be replicated.

Enter to grand entry hall, where the full magnitude of the stateliness carried throughout becomes apparent. Soaring ceilings, polished Baltic pine floors, decorative mouldings and a rich heritage colour palette are carried across two monumental front reception rooms, each complete with marble fireplace.

To the east, an opulent ballroom now holds court as a billiard room, with gold lathe and plaster ceiling a sumptuous canopy across the stately space. A slate-floored dining room and country kitchen still feature the original hooks for hanging bacon, while the original bakehouse has been adapted into expansive laundry.

An extensive main bedroom suite is fully equipped with dressing room, linking to split-level living area with exposed stone walls. 6 additional bedrooms and 3 bathrooms are each generously sized, with enclosed rear veranda completing double duty as a sunroom.

To the rear, the original stables have been reimagined as a self-contained cottage, perfect for multi-generational living, a bespoke work-from-home suite, or short stay accommodation. Sheds and a freestanding garage are easily accessed from all sides of the block, while lush lawns connect to a striking conservatory with glass marquee ceiling and stone walls - another jewel to be discovered, and a window to a bygone era that completes the site with grace.

The next chapter belongs to you. Take the keys and enjoy the restored home as-is, or reimagine and mould into something else entirely. A tourism hub, museum, deluxe accommodation or function centre (STCC) - it's an ultra-rare opportunity to take a heritage-laden framework and create something new while honouring the past.

At Wonnaminta House, the future looks as grand as the past.
