Property Overview

Built in Circa 1905, Rockbeare is one of Clarendon's most historic landmarks. This stately property was the former home of Dr Wilton, who was associated with the Clarendon Hospital & its story is about to start a brand new chapter after many years of being lovingly restored by the current owners. Sited on 3 acres of beautiful manicured parklike grounds surrounded by acres of grapevines, Rockbeare is a feast for those seeking a historical masterpiece. This breath taking original sandstone homestead offers all the hallmarks for a property of this calibre. Towering 13ft ceilings, beautiful leadlight, roaring open fires, ornate cornices, grand entry foyer & lavish living rooms. All of these rooms have a great connection to the large country kitchen. On the southern & western wings of the homestead, there are 4 bedrooms and all are serviced by a large master bathroom & 2nd powder room. As you stroll around the botanic grounds, the gravity of your experience is only matched by what's on offer. Here, you are transported back to a time, where the huge palms were used as a navigation tool by the old bullock drivers to find water. As you pass the conversation precinct with stone fireplace, there's a story attached to every aspect of this estate. Other highlights include an original stone well, tennis court, gorgeous stone walls, entertaining space, a 165m unequipped bore, 80,000L of rainwater plus horse stables for those with equestrian family members. For those business owners seeking storage facilities with a secondary driveway, Rockbeare offers an onsite opportunity to take their business to the next level.<br/>Rockbeare also offers another SEPARATE stone cottage WITH ITS VERY OWN ACCESS!! This cottage could become a B&B opportunity, providing a welcome secondary income source (STC). The cottage offers 1 or 2 bedroom accommodation, studio, a kitchen, a meals area, a rustic bathroom and living room. Rockbeare not only encapsulates Clarendon's history, it's also been a huge part of Clarendon's story!! From the gorgeous castle inspired turret of the HIGH TEA room, the sandstone façade, the beautiful brick quoin work or the beautiful bluestone plinths… Rockbeare is a super rare, museum quality paradigm of Clarendon's journey from the 1870's. An opportunity of this magnitude has rarely, if ever been made available to purchase in recent decades, so grab this once in a lifetime opportunity and become part of the very fabric of one of Adelaide's finest rural townships. <br/>
