“THE OAKS”
Where Wine, Warmth & Lifestyle Intertwine on 10 Hidden Ha – Blue Ribbon Location – Views – Privacy – Solar – Bore – Water Lic – Income
There’s a certain magic that only comes with time – and “The Oaks” has had over a century to perfect it -10.7 stunning hectares including a productive, 5.92 hectare painter’s palette of Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay vines.
From its dairy farm roots to the lifestyle estate it is today, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom bluestone villa carries its past with pride while embracing the comfort, flow, and unpretentious charm of a modern entertainer.
Authentically extended using stone from its own quarry, this endearing c.1910 villa lies hidden from the world, yet moments from the heart of Oakbank.
With sweeping hills views to the north and east, every outlook is alive. Every vine, century-old elms, and namesake oaks that envelope the home in gold or green can be seen through almost every window.
The predominantly east-facing vines (established c.2000), currently under lease management, have produced award-winning grapes since their first vintage in 2004 – a testament to their care, infrastructure, and the Onkaparinga Valley’s ideal ripening conditions.
And from the villa’s “rear” front door is where the panoramic beauty unfolds – begging for a linen-laid trestle table beneath the oak trees.
Inside, polished timber floors, tall sash windows, and two under-floor heated bathrooms punctuate the generous footprint; the combined formal lounge and dining room hosts a feature fireplace and a 450-bottle wine cellar, poised for lively or intimate gatherings.
The Inavogue kitchen includes every caterer’s high-end appliance against Blackwood benchtops. Three oversized bedrooms preserve the home’s heritage warmth; the primary suite enjoys uninterrupted “vine time,” alongside a walk-in robe and ensuite.
Perhaps you’ll host weddings or weekend lunches in the west-facing rotunda as tall gums create a welcome windbreak; or maybe you’ll head to the property’s peak, where the quarry has evolved into a thriving bush garden – a legacy of passionate owners’ past.
Practical extras include vehicle and utility shedding, a barn-style, air conditioned and lined office/studio, netted vegetable gardens, a dam, two bores, and substantial rainwater.
For those who thrive outdoors, who dream of a second income, or purely crave a life less hurried, this iconic Hills’ estate, cocooned from the seasonal buzz of the racecourse, retains an unmistakable sense of place.
Let Hahndorf hum with tourists. On this side of the hill, country calm still reigns.
