Set against a breathtaking backdrop of rolling green pastures and spanning almost 14-acres of pristine Adelaide Hills countryside, 740 Mount Barker Road delivers an incredible lifestyle opportunity where scale, serenity and scope seamlessly converge. At its heart sits a beautifully updated c.1940 character residence balancing timeless charm with bespoke updates and thoughtful contemporary refinement. Whether you’re seeking a permanent tree-change, a weekend retreat, boutique accommodation venture or an idyllic Airbnb destination, this remarkable property presents endless avenues to explore.
Inside, soaring ceilings, feature fireplaces and multiple living zones create an inviting atmosphere, while open-plan spaces flow effortlessly to a sweeping deck ready to sit back and watch the seasons change. The spacious central kitchen is poised to wine and dine loved ones before unwinding across the fire-helmed lounge and living, or retreat to the enclosed sunroom for a more relaxed setting. Two bathrooms, including a resort-style free-standing tub and paddock views, captures the essence of country luxury, while ducted air conditioning and solar keep you comfortable year-round.
Beyond the home, the offering expands even further with a detached studio featuring its own bathroom and outdoor sauna, fenced paddocks, equestrian facilities, shelters, chicken coop and a picturesque pond. Large shedding, secure garaging and scope to expand the residence (STCC) enhances this already spectacular estate where tranquillity and future potential stretch as far as the views themselves.
