Some properties are pretty. Skylands is powerful.
Those who know will beat a path to this 421-acre outpost of indisputable high country -where cattle thrive, conservation parks outrank urbanisation, and pin-drop stillness rings loudly from its no-through-road vantage.
The panoramic ocean, rural, and valley views are incomparable. Changing through dawn, dusk, and every season, they'll convince you you're miles away - yet this rugged solitude sits surprisingly close to services, beaches, wineries, and tourism drawcards.
The modest mid-century cottage issues a comfortable, three-bedroom rest - update accordingly (STCC) or let it do as it's always done: enjoy the privacy, the slower pace, the low-care gardens, and the rolling ag country that cradles it from all sides.
On terrain as green as Ireland comes rich soils and perennial pastures fed by reliable rainfall and unwavering water security. Spring-fed dams, Wild Dog Creek, and a small waterfall thread through serene natural gullies, with birdlife providing the soundtrack.
Practicality holds its own with a strong annual fertiliser regime, good fencing, machinery, hay and workshop shedding, solid cattle yards, 2-phase power, and 12 paddocks supported by dams and stock troughs.
Be prepared for fat cattle, with plenty of feed, water and shade. Perhaps it'll be production today, potential tomorrow - Skylands is poised to thrive with room to push harder if you choose to.
Edged by Myponga Conservation Park, a few clicks from community-rich Myponga, and a detour from Main South Road, this is a bold step into versatile high country; and the deepest inhale out here is well worth your while.
