When it was built in 1860, The Station was the most significant railway station north of Adelaide. Italianate in style and generous in proportions, the building evokes the golden age of rail travel. More recently, The Station has been transformed into a destination for luxury group escapes and bespoke celebrations…. and guests are loving it!
The accommodation features lofty ceilings and generous windows with an overarching feeling of relaxed luxury. There are seven bedrooms, spacious reception rooms, and a chefs kitchen. The building sits on an acre of grounds where guests can wallow in the pool on a hot day or warm themselves around the fire pit on a cool evening.
But perhaps pride of place goes to the stunning railway platform, where a long table can be set for up to 100 guests. Diners are in for an experience as the sweet smell of trellised jasmine washes over the platform and the sky turns burnt-orange at dusk. A trip to The Station is not easily forgotten!
As amazing as the property is… it actually gets better.
The Station is a thriving business.
Offering group accommodation since 2021, The Station has earned such a prestigious reputation that guests need to plan ahead to secure a booking with weekends typically booked out months in advance. And there’s more… In 2024, a highly sought-after liquor licence was approved for events of up to 100 guests. As you can imagine, wedding bookings are now rolling in providing plenty of opportunity for revenue growth.
Just an hour from Adelaide, The Station is on the edge of the Barossa Valley – and 40 minutes to the Clare Valley. It is the perfect oasis, in the perfect region where food and wine abound…. but you won’t be surprised to know that some guests never leave the property!
The Station in Kapunda is truly a one-off opportunity for the right buyer.
