Not often do these properties come to market but after more than 25 years in the same hands Lot 14 Martin Road is on the market.
The brick home constructed in 1989/90 and first occupied in 1991 is in good order and affords the occupants lovely sea views to the Gulf and Rapid Head with sunsets thrown in. From the main living area the views into the valley over the trees and shrubbery are private and peaceful.
Configured as two bedrooms and two bathrooms the layout includes a formal lounge & dining as well as the main living area which is open plan including kitchen, casual dining and family lounge. The formal lounge (incl formal dining area which could be a very good third bedroom) provides the romance of an open fire place and the main living area has a slow combustion stove. A spacious under cover almost atrium style outdoor living area fills the central part of what is essentially a “U” shaped floor plan for the home.
The almost 5 acres of landscaped rural garden and semi open rural land is cut by a lovely curved driveway leading from Martin Road which is bitumen, to a circular driveway before the country style brick home with bullnose verandas and gardens to match. A double garage is at the rear of the home. The rainwater supply is from a substantial storage capacity and pump system.
The residence is not quite visible from the road adding to the private nature of the property. You can rest assured of your peace and quiet enjoyment year around in this Rural Living enclave on the edge of Normanville/ Yankalilla. The bird and wildlife are charming, the shrubs and trees mature. All this and you are still only a 5 min drive from the centre of Normanville and less than an hour from the southern suburbs. This one is a gem too good to be missed if you are in the market for a rural retreat for holidays or a permanent home.
