A Dream Country Retreat for Your Family – 7.2 HA

145 Alexander Forrest Road, Forreston, SA 5233
Imagine driving down a tranquil, tree-lined driveway, shaded by mature Silver Birches past a peaceful lake adorned with water lilies. With its expansive lawns and towering trees, this slice of heaven offers a wonderland for families to explore nature unfettered by modern constraints. Take it all in – your paradise awaits.

Nestled in a valley that a privileged few call home you will find a beautiful residence, abundant shedding, quality water, and space to rest and restore. Re-connect to yourself and nature here – the soul-soothing charm of country life is beckoning.

Every window in the brick residence provides a glimpse into your future life. Serene views of the surrounding gardens and lake are offered from the parents retreat which includes a lounge and peaceful master suite. Relaxed morning coffee in bed is your new normal coupled with the privacy of your own ensuite and walk-through robe.

Family is not forgotten. There's plenty of space for everybody with three more light-filled bedrooms, each with built-in storage. Note: Bedroom 4 is currently utilized as a superbly equipped work-from-home office. 

Unwind after a busy day in the luxurious depths of the main bathroom spa. Given the bathroom's size, the kids will not be bumping into each other! The impressive laundry is as practical as it is stylish. With custom cabinetry and a few hidden surprises (provided you look), there is room for all your family & farm life needs.

Equipped with premium European appliances, the kitchen is a true chef's delight. Wide benchtops, a handy central island, and quality cabinetry are just a hint of what's on offer. Family mornings will be a joy around the feature timber breakfast bar, where everyone can gather as you prepare meals. With a spacious, open-plan living area flowing seamlessly onto an expansive outdoor entertaining space, it's ideal for gathering those you love and weekend BBQs.

Outdoors, the swimming pool is perfect for both leisurely dips and energetic laps given its size. The kids will spend hours playing in the cubby house, building sandcastles in the sandpit, or shooting hoops. Sheltered and private, the 2 outdoor living areas are an entertainer's dream, perfectly positioned to catch the cool valley breezes.

For the practical-minded, this property is packed with amenities. It includes 2 quality sheds (both with three-phase power) and room for pets with a separate stable/animal shed. There is ample parking for trucks or trailers on a leveled 800sqm pad at the property entrance. Bonus motocross/bicycle track hidden in the back paddock for the kids – both big and little! The gently rolling landscape is fenced into 4 paddocks and traversed by 2 winter creeks.  It's perfect for horse lovers or anyone who dreams of a rural lifestyle with a few furry friends grazing the grass.

Peace, quiet, and freedom are on offer here. It's a safe, idyllic environment where your family can grow, play, and thrive. Don't miss the opportunity to create lifelong memories in this country retreat!
