From a spectacular tree-lined arrival to a serene winter creek, 2 freehold titles, and a c1910 4-bedroom villa at its heart, these 141 acres are entirely worth the 68-year wait for sale
Freestone return verandah charm offering a freestanding studio/5th bedroom, equipped bore, a valuable 35 megalitre water licence, SA mains water, cereal or hay cutting country plus gently rising grazing land, some 5kms out of Strathalbyn.
Plant the family and build your empire on land founded on vines and olives.
Well-managed premium white and red grapes produced on 11.4ha* of vines (recording a 200-tonne harvest in it's best year) and high-quality extra virgin olive oil from the 200-tree olive orchard.
It all says sever ties with the city for a more comfortable, profitable, villa life where lofty ceilings, timber floors, exposed stonework, formal and casual living zones, and a renovated bathroom, mix modern touches with Colonial classics.
Of the 4 massive bedrooms branching off the corridor, 3 with mantels, and all rejoicing in glorious rural views & maintained with genuine respect.
The central refurbished kitchen retains a country feel against stainless appliances, meeting the dining room and spacious main bathroom opposite keeping to a timeless palette.
Making the most of a northerly rear aspect, the living room stacker doors grant full patio exposure from a zone also enjoying a combustion fire, split system climate control, and a ceiling fan. The adjoining and more formal lounge is ready to bury into a book in front of a second combustion fire.
Established gardens shadow the verandahs, and with solar power, machinery/implement shedding, and sheep yards, your options are more than open - whether it becomes Strath's answer to Drover's Run, a stunning B&B escape on a popular tourist passage, or a romantic Fleurieu wedding venue.
