140 Acres of Peace and Tranquillity

This 140 acre property offers a lifestyle that is much sought after but seldom found. It is located between Monarto and Rockleigh in the Eastern Mount Lofty Ranges and has an abundance of moss rocks.

The solid 1880 constructed home with a recently renovated second storey addition has up to 5 bedrooms, being enough space for the largest of families, or if preferred 2 living areas and 4 bedrooms, with a flexible floor plan there are many options. As you would expect in a home of this vintage all of the rooms are extremely generous in size with walk in robes in 2 of the upstairs bedrooms.

A wood stove is a feature of the country kitchen making it a great place for those informal family meals, a separate dining room is available for more formal occasions or when family and friends visit.

Open fires and a combustion heater continue the traditional country feel and provide warmth and atmosphere on those chilly winter nights. The high ceilings add to the feeling of spaciousness of the rooms. Be prepared for sensational views overlooking the Murray Plains to the river and Murray Bridge from the upper level balcony. The home has a satellite broadband connection and a recently added digital TV antenna that ensures 21st century communication is available.

Externally there is a large patio area and verandah , ample rainwater and established low maintenance native gardens. There is an abundance of storage options with machinery and grain shed, an historic stone shearing shed with workshops and other stone outbuildings.

The land has 20ha of native vegetation/revegetation, 20ha arable plus ample grazing and holding paddocks as well as wildlife corridors/shelter belts. Sharefarmer is available if needed. There is electric fencing and a bore for stock water.
Ideally the property would suit horses, cattle, sheep, alpacas, farm stay, bed and breakfast, tree changers, hobby farmers or just those wanting to escape the rat race.

The property is just 10 minutes from Murray Bridge and Monarto interchange, and 45 minutes to the tollgate via the freeway.
An inspection of this very private rural property is recommended to appreciate all it has to offer.
