Humbug Scrub SA 5114

Humbug Scrub/One Tree Hill. Enjoy complete privacy and serenity from the top of the hill on this rural lifestyle property. What a great opportunity to secure this lifestyle property on approximately 20 acres just a short drive to One Tree Hill, Gawler and the Barossa. Much loved family home comprising 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, lounge, dining and family rooms as well as a pool. Two large sheds provide storage and options for working from home.
LAND: This property is situated on the top of a gently sloping hill with the western boundary bordering the Para Wirra National Park and the eastern boundary bordering the Mt Crawford Forest. This provides wonderful options for regular walks in the nature without even having to take the car out of the garage or packing a lunch. The views across the valley are amazing, with many native trees on the property itself, as well as on neighbouring properties, and the forests almost surrounding it provide a green belt even in the driest of summers. The property includes 8.19ha (20.24 acres) of beautiful grazing land divided into two main paddocks. A dam provides water all year round with water being pumped to a header tank for watering the garden and orchard. There are four rain water tanks, the biggest one a concrete tank for 114,000l. The other three holding approx. 10,000l each. The current owners advise that in the 27 years they lived on this property they never ran out of water! From a long driveway, approx. 245m, you enter the fully fenced house block, with a netted orchard which has produced large quantities of fresh fruit over the years including pears, plums, apples, cherries, lemons and mandarins. The property is a perfect canvas to plan and develop your interest to maintain livestock or pursue your passion in equestrian activities with your horses.
RESIDENCE: Built in 1989, this much loved, brick veneer, Fairmont home consists of four bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, lounge, dining and family rooms, laundry, double carport with roller doors and a shaded, paved, entertainment area in front of the fully fenced pool. The main bedroom is situated to the right of the main entrance with a bay window, walk-in robe and ensuite.

The kitchen has a large walk-in pantry, a long bench/meals preparation area next to the double sink, a Dishlex dishwasher, a new oven, Ceran electric hotplates and an exhaust fan. Heating and cooling is assisted by a combustion heater in the family room, several ceiling fans and a reverse cycle split system in the lounge.
