Hindmarsh Valley SA 5211

For those who love a sense of history and have an appreciation of how one can skilfully blend the old with the new, then "Glen Lindsay" could be the one for you! Hidden away from view in the rolling hills of beautiful Hindmarsh Valley you will discover this magnificent 7.86 HA (19.4 acre) property. This is truly a property where your tastebuds will get enlivened at every turn. You will be captivated by its beauty as soon as you drive into the property - towering gums set the scene and as you approach the homestead, a magnificent dam comes into view. A beautiful garden setting made up of an expanse of lawn and English trees, including Golden Ash and Cedars lie between the dam and the lovingly restored and extended "Glen Lindsay" homestead.

The original cottage retains all the charm of yesteryear, yet with all the comforts of today. Enter the front door and you will be amazed how light and bright this house is - polished jarrah floorboards are found in the entrance hall and passageway. The beautiful front sitting room with glorious sash picture windows, high ceilings and slow combustion fire is to the right of the front door. The original cottage comprising two rooms, is disposed to a lovely home office and bedroom - all rooms overlook the front garden and dam. The passageway creatively separates the old from the new, yet cleverly integrates them at the same time - the original exterior stone walls of the cottage have been repointed and form the hallway wall. The new family/living/dining room will absolutely delight! A Cathedral ceiling with exposed timber beams will grab your eye, as does the polished exposed aggregate concrete floor (with underfloor heating). Bi-fold doors open from the room into a delightful brick paved courtyard. The large country style kitchen will also impress - a large island bench with table top extension forms the centrepiece, together with stacks of bench and cupboard space - granite benchtops are used throughout. Large sash windows let in the northern sun.

Three more bedrooms including the master suite, are found at the other end of the home - heritage architect Richard Woods has introduced wonderful high north facing windows which brighten the whole new addition. The master bedroom is spectacularly beautiful - a large picture window looks out to the front lawn and dam - a bulkhead hides the walk through robe, while the ensuite bathroom (with stunning north facing window) comes with shower and granite topped vanity. There is a separate powder room. Two more bedrooms of equal proportions complete the bedroom accommodation - both have built in robes - all bedrooms have ceiling fans. The main bathroom is magnificent - beautifully tiled with another granite topped vanity, large shower and wc.
