Located within the historic township of Aldinga, with the scenic Willunga Hills as a backdrop, this unique small acreage lifestyle property has been the home of a well known successful commercial herb farm and associated retail trade outlet for many years. Endorsed as a popular local attraction, it was featured on the television show "Postcards" and even showcased on the “Best of Postcards”; a true tribute to the passion and love of gardening by the current owners.

The shady rotunda is just one centrepiece of the formal part of the garden, framed by the “old worlde” gate house and stone crafted walling, where each stone was individually hand picked from the Willunga slate quarry. The immaculate garden can be accessed the other end by a quaint picket fence and this will have you strolling along meandering herb lined paths. Plants include culinary as well as medicinal herbs such as rosemary, lavender, thyme, sage, oregano, rue and wormwood to mention but a few; as well as a diverse assortment of well established native and exotic trees, shrubs, roses and other ornamentals – all with the common theme of being water wise.

Set amongst the natural rural landscape and with lovely garden views, is the split level family home originally constructed in 1986 but with a new section added later. This country style home offers a large master bedroom with ensuite and walk in wardrobe; bedrooms 2 & 3 have built in wardrobes, and there are lofty raked ceilings to kitchen, dining and family area, with a step down to the second living room that is complete with a slow combustion heater. The home is kept cool in the summer with ducted evaporative air conditioning.

Whilst mostly original, the home is in excellent condition, with recently up dated oven and dishwasher. Adjacent to the kitchen is a massive walk in pantry, complete with washtub for washing your garden produce.

Numerous commercial improvements located adjacent to the formal garden include the detached 9×6 metre show room. This has its own kitchen, bar and slow combustion heater as well as being serviced by phone and electricity. It is beautifully presented, fully lined with slate flooring, and would make a marvellous games room. Additionally
there is a very large shade house, another potting area complete with plumbing, a nearby male/ female and disabled toilet block with separate septic system, storage shed and work shop. Ample off road parking areas include space for bus parking; and there is a huge fenced chook yard and additional storage sheds all adding to the overall value of this exciting property.

Conveniently located close to local shopping centres, schools, the wine region and the beach with bitumen road frontage, mains water as well as 45,000 litres of rainwater storage it all makes this property a very versatile proposition. Land size approx 1.92 hectare or just under 5 acres.
