The home:

Discreetly positioned at the end of a long, tree-lined driveway, "Yahl Hill" is a meticulously maintained 2.44-hectare / 6.03 acre estate offering a level of privacy and self-sufficiency rarely found.

Tucked well back from the road behind Ruwoldt Reserve, the residence is completely shielded from neighbors, creating a peaceful sanctuary just 8km from the heart of Mount Gambier.

The 1987 built home is a construction of brick veneer with Mount Gambier stone quoins, designed to blend timeless character with high-functioning rural utility. All internal and external walls are insulated.

The heart of the residence is an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area featuring soaring exposed raked beams.

At its center sits a "Thermalux" wood-fired heater, which serves as a cozy focal point and a highly efficient utility - featuring its own oven and cooktop while simultaneously supplying the home's hot water during winter.

For effortless climate control, a large Mitsubishi split-system air conditioner services the main living zones, while the entire home is heavily insulated and fitted with thermal "cellular" blinds to ensure year-round comfort.

The walk-through kitchen is a masterclass in functionality, boasting a 4-burner induction cooktop, electric wall-oven, a generous walk-in pantry, and a dedicated microwave niche.

Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, offering four generous bedrooms including a master suite with a walk-in robe and ensuite.

The three minor bedrooms share a beautifully finished main bathroom featuring a generous bath and separate shower.

Beyond the formal dining and lounge rooms, a hidden office niche with NBN connection provides a quiet workspace.

Outdoor living is equally considered, with a protected rear pergola featuring a wall-mounted pizza oven, a retractable clothesline, and access to a 2m x 3.2m cellar with sturdy shelving. The front pergola is accessible from the dining room and lounge room, offering a well protected space for entertaining or just relaxing to enjoy the tranquility.

The property is a triumph of infrastructure and sustainable design.

A 5kW solar array paired with an 11kWh Alpha ESS battery system has kept the current owners in credit with their electricity provider for nearly a year.

The grounds are divided into two grazing paddocks with stockproof fencing and permanent troughs, a lush house yard, and an extraordinary orchard featuring over 15 varieties of fruit, nut trees and vine fruits.

Every garden bed, the orchard, and the expansive lawns are serviced by an automatic reticulation system supplied by a private bore.

For the enthusiast or tradesperson, the shedding is unparalleled.

A massive 9m x 8m Mount Gambier stone workshop features a 5m vehicle service pit, gantry, compressed air outlets, and dust extraction.

Additional structures include a large car shed, hay shed, and a small dairy with a vacuum bucket milker and shearing plant.

With comprehensive fire safety systems, including wall-drenching sprinklers and 51,000 litres of total rainwater storage plumbed to the entire house.

Rarely does a property emerge that so perfectly marries architectural soul with absolute technical precision. This is your rare chance to step into a life where the world's noise fades away, replaced by the quiet prestige of your own private, established paradise.
