211 Old Mount Barker Road

Aldgate SA 5154

A charming slate-tiled front porch guides you into two of the four original rooms, the lounge and formal dining, setting the tone for a home where the glorious garden outlooks form the tapestry of your everyday surroundings much like the character fireplaces and high ceilings.

The kitchen forms the centre point of the home and is beautifully maintained, with timber look benchtops, tons of storage and quality appliances ready to use. Beyond, an illuminous sunroom will naturally capture your favour, with views over the gardens, neighbouring vineyards, and the large and rather grand 1920s swimming pool ready to be refurbished and put back to use for the years to come. A mud room guides you down into the garden to explore winding paths and ornamental plants, with lawns and flowers to be discovered at every turn.

Yet its the balcony that captures the best of the soft Hills light and panoramic views across private greenery and the valley to Mount George, making it the perfect spot for slowing down to enjoy your morning cuppas, evening aperitifs and summer BBQs.

Completing the upstairs blueprint are two beautiful upstairs bedrooms that capture the best of those views, with the main bedroom adding on built-in robes, an ensuite, and adjacent study. Downstairs youll find two more Queen bedrooms, the first with charming character beams and garden views, and the second well-made built-in storage. Theres also a wine cellar, a large bathroom with family bath, the laundry, and access to the lawns that lie below the balcony, allowing you to supervise in style.

Whether youre seeking a grounding home base for the family years, or a location to relax and enjoy a slower-paced yet satisfying retirement, this is a home for putting down roots so give yourself the green light to slow down, settle in, and allow yours to grow alongside those of the towering century-old oak trees in the friendly yet private community of Aldgate.
