One of a kind and a very rare find!

21.1 Hectares  3 Bedrooms 1 Bathroom

Pelican Lagoon is without a doubt one of Kangaroo Island’s most picturesque locations, known for the vast abundance of native flora and fauna and simply outstanding views.

This one of a kind, incredible offering of some 21.1 hectares (approx. 52 acres) includes a most fabulous, rustic ‘Cape Cod’ inspired timber framed home, and simply has to be one of the area’s most unique properties with some of the most amazing views you’ll find.

Built in 2001 by the current owner, this is the first time the property has been offered for sale and the owner loves the location that much that they decided to subdivide the land into two parcels and reside next door! You need not worry about your privacy or your views in that regard.

The timber and corrugated iron clad two level home is designed for off the grid living and the home has been thoughtfully designed to capture the incredible views from nearly every room in the house.

It is ideally suited to those who value nature and the peace and seclusion that comes with it, yet appreciate still being in close proximity to neighbouring towns for supplies and a friendly chat with the locals. Being just 20 minutes from where the ferry docks in the township of Penneshaw you’ll appreciate the short scenic drive, to your new found piece of this very special island paradise. Penneshaw has numerous dining options for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as a fuel station, well stocked I.G.A. supermarket, post office and fuel outlet. There are fabulous beaches, cellar doors and restaurants all within a 20-30 minute drive or maybe you’re in the mood for some freshly shucked oysters just 10 minutes away at American River. Sounding pretty good so far right? This property truly is one for those that appreciate the best of both worlds.

Whilst you may choose to keep this property as your home or your personal retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, it could also make a great Air BnB (subject to all relevant consents)with local caterers and cleaners at the ready to assist.

You are virtually guaranteed daily sightings of Kangaroos and at dusk it’s particularly wonderful to sit on the deck that surrounds the house with a gin (local of course) and tonic and take in these timid creatures as they venture closer to the house. What a way to end a day, after a swim or surf at Pennington Bay next door, with dinner on the deck watching the sun go down. Now this folks is living!

The home consists of two bedrooms downstairs, one currently utilised as a gym room, and the master suite upstairs complete with a quiet nook for reading, writing or dreaming the day away. The living and dining areas with pretty french doors and timber floors are open plan and warmed by a combustion fire, which effectively warms the upstairs too. On the lower level a compact laundry houses the essentials and is located adjacent the main bathroom, filled with natural light courtesy of a full length window in the shower to capture the vast and ever-changing vistas.

The kitchen is an open design and equipped with large commercial 6 burner freestanding gas oven range. Standing by the sink you’ll likely easily be distracted by the view out the adjacent window that looks out towards the spectacular Penning ton Bay.

The home is supplied by rainwater with 22,000 litre capacity tank, a solar energy system including solar hot water, a back-up generator, and a freezer especially designed to operate with the solar system itself. There’s even an outdoor shower to wash off before entering the home should you choose.

This really is a home and property that you need to come and see for yourself to truly appreciate what is on offer.
