80 Schuberts Road

Etched into over seven acres of utter rural beauty, this time-softened homestead wraps itself in return verandahs, enduring bones, established gardens and country views that never get old, moments from Lobethal's village heart and wine country cellar doors. Set back from the road to carve out its own bore-fed world with animal-ready paddocks, prolific shedding, original barn and a separate cottage, 'Highfield 'C1925 holds dear the makings of a practical hobby farm. The home wears that patina of time with pride, primed for a cosmetic refresh across a versatile floorplan with at least three bedrooms, a sunroom, two bathrooms and a bevy of charming living zones. Its timber floors, lofty ceilings, ornate fireplaces, cosy combustion heaters and light-grabbing sash windows with a soothing garden view are all worth preserving, while the country-style timber kitchen will keep on keeping on. Separate lounge and dining rooms give the plan that old-school simplicity; the ensuite and walk-in-robe ensure there's no disputing which bedroom is yours; and that separate cottage is a restoration away from becoming the perfect art studio. Tinkerers and big toy collectors will love the barn and vast powered shed, the deck waits patiently for long-table lunches, and the land itself - with a creek, a century old oak and abundant birdlife - is like something out of a storybook. And it all sits just 2km from Lobethal village and a short drive or bus ride to several Hills schools, Mount Barker centre, the pick of many world-class wineries and Adelaide itself. It's time for a tree change.
