Set high on the cliffs of the Majestic Murray River in the Riverland SA, is an illustrious historic dream, however a dream it is not, it’s very real and awaiting your tender touch and appreciation of history and days gone by.
Not one, but two history filled stone homesteads sitting proudly side by side as they have done for the last century. Heritage listed with good reason, this property will leave you speechless as it did me when I first viewed it.
The current owners have spent the last 2 years tenderly restoring with meticulous attention to detail and offering sublime refinement in each and every room slowly and surely to original condition as closely as possible. The vendors have invested $400,000 in genuine improvements on the property.
The leadlight features, the light fixtures, the original wall paper features just leave you speechless. The beauty, the magnificence of how things were done of the turn of the last century is being bought back to life. You can feel it, it seeps out of the walls, you almost feel transported to another place in time. At every turn, you can see memories of ladies in crinoline dresses and men in their Sunday best with moustaches, its living history and it’s possibly yours.
Quite possibly, never again, will a property of this calibre such as this become available to the general public.
Enjoy the majesty of the homes, enjoy the pool, enjoy the fire-pit on summer or winter evenings on the cliff edge and watch the river flow before you.
Properties such as this come along rarely, very rarely. Not just is this magnificence in real estate on sale but a piece of Australian and Riverland history and it truly requires someone who is not only going to be a owner but a genuine custodian. One could rave on forever but space doesn’t allow.
Due to the Locks controlling the water levels of the mighty Murray River, there are consistent high levels of water all year round guaranteed to enjoy the scenic views and to enjoy seasonal water sports.
Please, if this sort of property inspires you, call and book a personal inspection because there are too many facets in this diamond to describe in one page. Only witnessing the beauty will put you truly in the picture as to the quality of this potential acquisition.
Let your dynasty begin!
