About Us
Leading agent from Kapunda goes it alone.
The dream of country living became a reality in 2022, when owner and operator of Country Style Real Estate Kel Palin moved to Kapunda on the eve of Halloween.
Assisting over 36 Vendors, in a short period of time, it was noted that a personal approach, without restrictions from the Corporate World was highly important and so Country Style Real Estate was born in 2024.
