The land comprises approx 10.4 hectares or around 25.5 acres in the old speak and is watered via three dams and a number of troughs. Water is no problem with this one as the property has an equipped bore currently providing very good water, as it always has, at a better rate than you can use. The water is good straight out of the pipe for stock and domestic and everything is plumbed in around the seven level to gently sloping paddocks. Shedding is ample for the size of the property including a shearing shed and various storage/ machinery sheds and access to all paddocks is easy. Fences are fair and will hold a few steers in combination with a single wire electric fence on pretty much every fenceline. The homestead of this excellent hobby farm sized property is brick veneer and tile configured as, three bed, one bath, a lounge and dining rooms and fully a enclosed patio with its own wood heater, used as a second living area. The monier cement tile roof, just recently cleaned, sealed, repointed and painted is like new under the 9 solar panels, also near new that are doing a stirling job to keep energy bills skinny. The home comes complete with a 240 v generator and it is wired to provide emergency power on demand. No need to rattle down endless miles of dirt road to get there either. The bitumen goes right past the door and yet you are between Second Valley and Delamere so the heart of the western Fleurieu with good rainfall and the road never turns to mud! At not more than about an hour from the southern suburbs this is well located and is all that you could need in a country retreat. A quick trip down on Friday night from the big smoke and the weekend to enjoy the country life. Of course for those looking for a tree change, self sufficiency can be a reality for anyone here. A family wanting to live closer to the earth and nature will find everything is on hand with enough room to provide for much of the requirements for feeding the billy lids on real food. A feature of the property is the old growth fruit trees, a few of which are very old and still producing lovely crops of apples, peaches, necterines and nashi’s, mulberries, pears and the like; and plenty of room to expand the orchard. There is an area set up for vegies with reticulation, sprinklers etc already done so just plant and away you go. If this sounds like you I suggest you make a move as there are few properties like this at the realistic asking price you see here.
