“The Edge” Located only 50 km from Adelaide and 17km west of Strathalbyn is this impressionable 97.6 Ha (241 Acres) rural holding. The property name The Edge is referring to the landform as it is located on the southern edge of the Mt Lofty Ranges.

Entrance to the property is from Signal Flat Road where the land is steeper and elevated with extensive views from Goolwa to the start of the Coorong. Peppermint Box and Pink Gum remain in this area and have been extensively
supplemented with the new plantings. Away from the road and toward the Finniss River the land is gently undulating and presents lush grazing. Close to the river there is open grassland with River Red, Blue and Pink Gum vegetation.

From the entrance on Signal Flat Road to the river is about 1.6km and there is over 1km of river frontage. A pool in the river where the pumps are located has permanent water and is protected by land ownership on both sides. Currently water is pumped from this pool to the larger of 2 dams or to a 100kl tank almost at the highest point on the property.

This property has undergone an amazing transformation during the past 7 years. From its origin as an almost bare grazing property there are now about 6000 native and exotic trees (Full species list available) planted mainly on the steeper slopes and the extensive hay paddocks remain.

The gum studded country takes in the best of both worlds having excellent shelter for stock and also cleared paddocks ideal for hay cutting. North West of the property is the picturesque river Finniss as the boundary. Down by the river is many suitable sites for a picnic area to experience the serenity of your assets.
