10 Shepherd Rd, Chapel Hill

Chapel Hill is one of Adelaide Hills' most treasured locations, where it's open pastures and big sky views make it a delightful place to call home, all within minutes from major townships such as Stirling and Mt Barker. 

c1930's this character stone home was built, commanding it's presence over the surrounding areas. In more recent years, it's land has become a more manageable size of nearly 3/4 acre, yet still holds incredible vistas and is highly versatile. 

She's a grand lady, with 10ft ceilings with ornate plaster in every room, a mix of Jarrah floorboards and vintage inspired carpets in the original part, opening up into a light filled spacious extension where here we'll find a fabulously well equipped country kitchen offering masses of storage, an AEG Pyrolytic oven and gas cooktop suitable for BBQ plate cooking. 

The incredibly inviting mood of the original home makes an ideal nest to bunker down in the depths of winter by the fire or during the heat of summer, protected by the stone exterior walls. 

When spring comes, open the French doors... wine, dine and lounge from a magnificent open plan space that expands out to a solid hardwood deck, distantly bordered by mature pine trees over grassy lawns and watch the neighbours horses drink from the trough. 

This is living... admiring the view of acres on acres.... without the work!

Both bathrooms are uniquely stunning, where every evening the light reflects throughout the room taking on a magical dance and the therapeutic spa bath is a simple joy. 

The 'Hamptons' inspired laundry / mud room is yet another thoughtfully planned space needing to be seen to be appreciated.

As unique as this home, the shed is too, boasting a rare 3m opening to allow comfortable access for high caravans, boats or floats.
