An Iconic Home of Loxton
Elders Real Estate is proud to present a once in a lifetime opportunity to secure a rare and iconic property in the heart of Loxton.Mill Road's "Carina" is a remarkable residence, steeped in local history.
Mill Road takes its name from Loxton's second flour mill (est 1924) becoming, in the 1950's, the most modern mill in South Australia, exporting wheat to Singapore and Malaysia.
The mill owner built the only three homes in Mill Road, a no-through road, one for his own family (Carina) and two others for senior mill workers.
The original homestead (Carina, circa 1920) has been extensively extended, refurbished and enhanced, thoughtfully transforming it into a spacious, tranquil, comfortable family residence, guaranteeing quiet, private living and within easy walking distance to Loxton town centre, schools, and sporting facilities.
Located behind rustic timber fencing, stunning native gardens, all under irrigation, create a park like setting blending seamlessly with the natural landscape, enhancing privacy and complementing the origins of this very special character filled home.
Upon entry, a formal hallway with natural riven slate flooring and striking French lacquer ceiling sets the tone for the home's character and elegance.
At its heart lies a chef's kitchen with central island bench, statement copper rangehood, Corian benchtops, two full-size ovens, double sink, Miele dishwasher and two pantries (one a walk-in).
The kitchen, adjoining vestibule and family room form an impressive open plan living/entertaining zone featuring ornate ceilings, original mahogany floor, floor to ceiling bookcase and large combustion heater.
Also adjacent to the kitchen/family open plan zone is a stunning second living area which is currently used as a formal lounge, but could easily become an additional casual living area, plenty big enough for a pool table. Linking this area with a separate dining room is a bar with sink, built in cabinetry, wine storage and space for a fridge. Walls of sliding glass doors provide easy access to both the pool and vine covered pergola/BBQ area.
The master suite is beautifully appointed, complete with an ensuite, spacious walk-in robe, and stunning French lacquer ceiling. Large glass sliding doors provide direct outlook across the rear gardens and pool area. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, all with built-in robes, comfortably cater for family living or guests.
In addition to the ensuite in the master, "Carina" has a generous family bathroom, powder room off the mudroom which is convenient for guests, and a dedicated shower room/toilet for the pool area.
The home continues to impress with a standout laundry (4.2m x 4.8m), featuring a walk-in linen press, ample storage, double sink, and air conditioning, creating an effective drying room in winter. A wine cellar is accessed via the laundry.
For those working from home, a dedicated office with built in shelving and separate entry offers a quiet and practical workspace.
Outdoors, the property has been meticulously designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The inground, salt-chlorinated pool is tiled, solar heated, and complemented by a pool pavilion ideal for hosting or unwinding in privacy.
Additional improvements include a stunning vine covered pergola and shade house, with its own overhead misting system. Both spaces provide lush, cool, green, outlooks from the living areas. A second pergola is adjacent to the carport and garage.
A 75m shed with iron roofing, originally constructed to house thousands of laying hens supplying eggs across South Australia, now offers extensive storage, drive-through vehicle access and accommodates eight galvanised water tanks, plumbed to the house.
This truly rare offering combines luxury, lifestyle, and history, delivering a unique opportunity to secure a substantial family estate in one of Loxton's most tightly held and picturesque locations. Framed by pine trees, Mill Road offers a peaceful and private setting unlike any other.
