1686 Clarky Road, Coober Pedy, SA 5723

Tucked into the hillside in a peaceful and private location just two kilometres from the centre of town, this beautifully presented three-bedroom home offers the ultimate in Coober Pedy living—naturally insulated, thoughtfully designed, and uniquely inviting.

From the moment you enter the spacious foyer, the home’s charm is undeniable. A distinctive ‘Y’-shaped dividing wall sets the tone for the creative interior, guiding you through a well-considered floor plan that blends rustic warmth and functional living.

The open-plan kitchen and dining area features newly fitted retro-inspired cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and natural light. The adjoining lounge is equally inviting, enhanced by glass block features.

Each of the three bedrooms offers something special, with two bedrooms located off the living room and the third accessible via a walk-through storage corridor—perfect for a work-from-home office or private retreat.

The bathroom is cleverly laid out, with a central vanity, tiled shower, and separate toilet. A slab is already in place for the addition of a second bathroom/laundry.

Outside, a large, paved courtyard is framed by established trees and a rock garden. The inviting patio is ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing in the peace and quiet.

The property includes three carports, a workshop, and an underground garage/storage area. Extensive water management upgrades and new awnings have been installed, along with a self-watering irrigation system for the garden.

Enjoy peace, privacy, and protection from strong winds in this one-of-a-kind dugout home, set on a generous 7,374sqm (approx.) freehold allotment. With excellent natural ventilation and no need for heating or cooling, the home remains comfortable year-round.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a secluded dugout lifestyle with space to grow, just minutes from town.
