141 Lenger Road, Mount Torrens SA 5244

Held in the same family for 53 years this highly fertile 16-acre former potato & dairy property has a lot more to offer than just great infrastructure.

Surrounded by gently rolling Hill views & tucked into a gum studded Hans Heysen landscape the property is accessed off Lenger Rd by either Springhead Rd or the Onkaparinga Valley Rd. A genuine cross road in the Adelaide Hills; the location of this property makes it easily accessible to Adelaide which is only 40 km away (40 mins) or equally close to the Northern Suburbs, Barossa Valley or Murraylands.

The local township was originally established as a service route between Adelaide, Mannum & Murray Bridge in the mid 1800's & has maintained a population of approximately 319 since World War I. But after all these years things are changing in the region. With the completion of the South Eastern Freeway's Heysen Tunnels in May 2000 the Adelaide Hills is now regarded as one of the best & most affordable lifestyle regions in the country. More recently however, the Onkaparinga Valley has started attracting young families looking to take advantage of the regions unique & rich provincial lifestyle.
With the brand new (2014) Amy Gillett Bike Track built on the old railway line between Mt Torrens & Oakbank, the track is alive with young families taking advantage of the safe, sealed & stunning track as it weaves it's way from Mt Torrens (past Lenger Rd) all the way to Oakbank via cheese & wine cellar doors, coffee shops, the famous Charleston Hotel (The Charlie) & beautiful picnic locations along the way. It's an enviable family lifestyle that offers a variety unobtainable anywhere else in South Australia let alone Australia.

But what's the good of an Adelaide Hills Lifestyle without the lifestyle property? There is a reason this farm has been tightly held for 53 years. It has been loved in every way. A double brick home with render all round & an established garden along with kitchen garden, the current owners have lived a very healthy life to this very day directly off the land with a full year program perfectly executed. A wealth of knowledge that would be passed on to the next owner should you wish to stay in touch with Mr & Mrs Howard and Kay Lenger. If you are looking for self-sufficiency & don't know where to start, this is certainly the place.

With water maps provided to the new owner showing schematics between tanks, the house, shedding, gardens & the bore (3000gph 1400ppm) there is ample infrastructure in place. This is fast becoming one of the most sought after regions in South Australia & upon inspection it will be evident why. Inspect this property by appointment.
