Neat as a pin, ‘Gum Creek’ is situated on 70 acres of 100% useable grazing country just outside of Mt Pleasant.
With nothing left to do but move in and enjoy this appealing rural lifestyle, ‘Gum Creek’ will appeal to hobby farmers or even a motor cross enthusiast.
With a full sized motor cross track in place along with eight very well fenced (electric and ringlock) paddocks, large American barn, a horse arena and distant neighbours, you can always pick the good country by the size of the gums and the usability of the land, with one gum in particular boasting an extraordinary 16m base dating back an estimated 400 years. With a natural water course winding through the property it is no wonder Gum Creek is dotted with many other large gums indicating good water below.
Currently bore water is used purely for the stock, domestic consumption comes from the ample rainwater storage from the combined 504m2 shed and homestead roof catchment. There is an 18 inch rainfall average for the area and dryland lucern is grown in abundance around the region. The water infrastructure includes water points in each paddock, 4 x 5000g tanks and a council compliant bio cycle system set up to water the liquid amber lined driveway and other garden plants.
The Rivergum homestead is in excellent condition and includes a large undercover outdoor entertainment area looking out over a sprawling back yard that simply screams space, space and more space. From the house it’s a beautiful outlook over the entire property and also draws your attention to the regions big sky country that we are so lucky to experience in rural South Australia.
The bedrooms are a generous size with enough room to incorporate the teenager’s lounge in each, and with internal insulation everyone has their own space and privacy. There are two living rooms and the primary open plan kitchen, living and dining room is intelligently placed in the center of the house with the parents bedroom (inc. ensuite) up one end and the three remaining bedrooms along with the laundry down the other. There is ample linen storage and the kitchen is completely up to the minute with an Electrolux dishwasher, electric cooktop and electric oven all in stainless.
Complete with one of the best veggie patches you will ever see ‘Gum Creek’ has been built to incorporate form (looks good) with function (easy to use), which means there is nothing left to do but enjoy this thoughtfully established rural lifestyle.
