2.24ac. Very large, well-appointed home, huge outdoor entertaining area and excellent shedding complex. Desired location near Gawler offering quality living options and standards.
LAND: 2.24ac. Located on the fringe of the urban sprawl, Cockatoo Valley provides a real sense of country living where there is ample space to enjoy, without the burden and upkeep of larger acreage properties, whilst being only minutes from all the facilities Gawler has to offer.
The property itself has an inviting entrance with a remote control electric gate along with all the essential components a holding of this size should have such as fruit trees, a great chook enclosure, room for further development, an abundance of shedding, a good water supply and, of course, a large family home.
RESIDENCE: This 1990 built, brick veneer home incorporates 29 squares of living space that includes 6 living zones, up to 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and is embraced by a wide bullnose verandah and a huge undercover entertaining area. The home has a northerly aspect which invites the light in through any of the 6 bay style windows and the central atrium. One of these windows is in the kitchen, where the space is plentiful. With a built-in electric oven and separate grill, gas hot plates and provision for a centre workspace, the kitchen is perfect for a cook of any level. Dine in either the formal dining area, which via a gentle step down connects with the lounge, or the casual meals area which, in turn, flows into the family living section where there is a most appropriate slow combustion heater. With lounge, dining, meals and family areas there is space for all – then we add in the 4.5m x 6m games room and it’s easy to see how numerous the living options are. The study could be utilised as a 5th bedroom, however, it is the master, with its large walk-in robe and full size ensuite bathroom that is most impressive. A unique design feature of the home is the central atrium. Additional benefits and features of this large home include full tiled flooring, ducted evaporative air conditioning, many external roller shutters and a 5kw solar unit for efficient living. Storage is also in abundance with many built-in features plus a storeroom located near the updated laundry and third toilet with basin. Attached to the rear of the home is a wonderful outdoor undercover entertaining section. The Colorbond gable roof structure covers the paving and the stone wall, which incorporates a built-in barbeque. The brick wood shed is very handy and is alongside yet another storage area.
IMPROVEMENTS: Anyone for shedding? The main shedding complex begins with a double carport that has an automated panel lift door. Next, is a single garage with automatic roller door. The internal access door leads to the 40’ x 25’ workshop that contains a mass of built-in shelving, has power, concrete floor and a single roller door. Also internally connected is the 33 ‘x 13’ caravan or boat shed. So, whether it’s for a workshop, boats, caravans, trailers, tractors or car enthusiasts, there is purposeful shedding. Water is stored in 6 x tanks that total approximately 30,000 gallon and provides a generous supply of rainwater to the home, which is supported by the mains water supply. Aviaries and other sundry shedding all exist, ensuring this property has so much to offer.
