444 Hawthorn Road

Rarely does a lifestyle estate balance serenity and prestige at such scale. Lakecrest expresses each beautifully across 80 panoramic acres, framed by water, light, and pure architectural luxury. Beyond the substantially renovated 600sqm of living, the property offers extensive garaging for up to 20 vehicles and a world-away existence only Echunga can muster - just seven minutes from Hahndorf. The long, tree-lined, and sealed driveway creates a calming sense of arrival. The pool, brand-new cabana, and alfresco BBQ terrace are legacies designed for unequalled viewing and entertaining pleasure. Unfolding across generous light-filled wings, the main suite retreats to a private sanctuary with dual ensuites, underfloor heating, and a spacious dressing room - all oriented to capture dam, pool, and countryside views. Four additional bedrooms, two studies, four bathrooms, and a series of flexible indooroutdoor living zones allow you to gravitate on a whim - whether for family time or grand-scale entertaining. Beneath lofty ceilings, the formal dining centrepiece spreads its wings from deck to deck, watching over the 'hill', the dam, and the action in and around the heated pool - every strategically placed double-glazed window drawing in natural northern light and endless skies. The award-winning kitchen hosts premium Miele appliances: an induction cooktop, inbuilt coffee machine, warming drawer, and one of two dishwashers - plus an integrated Liebherr fridge with twin freezers. Pocket doors reveal a fully plumbed butler's pantry. Yet despite the quality infrastructure in place the horse arena, shedding, stables, paddocks, dam, and 14Meg water licence hobby farming is purely optional. Ride for fun, agist if you want to, or simply embrace the views that enrich your existence. A self-contained studio is perfect for guests, extended family, or creative pursuits - here, the beauty of choice is as valuable as the assets themselves. Maybe you'll canoe the dam at first light or climb to the "Butterfly Forest" for elevated views stretching from Hahndorf to Mount Barker. Even by Adelaide Hills' highest standards, Lakecrest is a unique opportunity for those seeking idyllic seclusion with surprising connection - just 20 minutes to the Tollgate. For those led by a feeling, this is forever at its most fulfilling.
