38 Dooley Road, Kersbrook, SA 5231

There's a calming sense of arrival to this architectural design - its gentle landing allowing nature to lead and this mudbrick-construction to sit back and stun, in a quiet showcase of sustainable luxury.

Architecturally designed by John Maitland, the sweeping home tiptoes across six gum-studded hectares, framing a sparkling salt-chlorinated pool, curated and irrigated vegetable gardens, chicken coop, expansive shedding and workshop flexibility, and two ambient firepit zones.

Cradled in seclusion yet barely 20 minutes from Tea Tree Plaza, this three-bedroom (plus study) haven is the ultimate lifestyle escape – a design for those drawn to nature, not a farming venture, in pin-drop quiet bliss.

Sound-absorbing mud bricks enhance the silence; the home boasting 5kW of solar, rich Oregon timber, recycled from Port wool stores, piercing galvanized ceilings, multiple French doors and cedar-framed, full-length glazing for endless views and natural indoor-outdoor flow.

The result is a grounding, tactile, and upcycled existence of practicality and thermal efficiency.

North facing orientation allows the winter sun to flood the living space – a zone also warmed by a Nectre slow combustion fire – as every pane frames a bushland palette.

There's a natural drift from the open plan living, meals, and kitchen to the undercover terrace, pool deck and pavilion. The kitchen, both performer and showpiece, pivots between pool views and dinner service from its Caesarstone benchtops, Miele dishwasher, Electrolux oven and gas cooktop.

All three unique, serene bedrooms and joinery-fitted office open to the outdoors. The master with ensuite and walk-in robe faces south; bedrooms two and three extend to the north-facing verandah, opposite the main family bathroom.

If it's a bath soak you seek, the main bathroom delivers with bush views on tap; and it's the only zone to rebel against the home's organic palette with a floor tile splash of jade.

Around you, the drought-hardy landscape blends into the bush as helipad-sized lawns, crowned by gum trees, echo birdsong; here, your fenced boundaries are a discovery and the day's end light is golden, wherever you sit.

With the Tom Roberts Trail just beyond the winding drive, what feels like 'off the beaten track' bound by Roachdale, Mount Gawler, and Mount Crawford Forest Reserves, is surprisingly close to city convenience.

Herein lies your balance - and Dooley does it beautifully.
