276 Basket Range Road

Basket Range SA 5138

True to its region, this stunning 1930s Basket Range stone cottage sits amidst the fruit basket of Adelaide. Nestled into the hillside on just under 3 acres, the cottage has been extended using the same local stone to incorporate 4 bedrooms, a separate study and 2 living areas. But the numbers bely the evocative detail of broad stone steps, gravelled paths and potted citrus, aged timber floors and a classic stone fireplace flanked by French doors and diamond leadlight detailing. White internal walls and paned joinery bring in the northern light to create a vibrant home filled with character and charm.

The 1.16Ha property overlooks a small valley to be filled with the spring blossom of cherry and apple trees. In summer the high quality bore waters the gardens and surrounds via an extensive dripper hose system with concrete rainwater tank for house use. There is a house and run for the chickens, herb and vegetable plots, fruit trees and exotics including persimmon and dogwood and rear paddocks drifting to pine and eucalypt groves complete the rural idyll! Double carport, double garage, wood store and three phase power to the property plus a recently installed recycled septic system take care of the infrastructure. In addition a large levelled lawn area is ready to develop your passion, be it further shedding, cricket or croquet or your own bottled terroir!
