When it's more than bricks and mortar you crave, this is the 'more' you need. 155 magnificent acres to sow, graze, grow or invest against a spectacular country backdrop - with a side-serve of Strathalbyn convenience.
Framed by two road frontages and adjacent to the towns Rural Living zone, an impressive array of shedding, steel cattle yards, holding yards and eight well-fenced paddocks, the three-bedroom homestead plays second fiddle to the property's infrastructure and significant sprinkling of mature gums.
The arable, gently undulating and productive land has comfortably carried 27 cows and their progeny while some 14 hectares have been sown for hay in recent years, placing versatility high on its credentials list.
Whether you're an investor, life-styler or farmer, every town-heart essential is barely 3km away.
And whether you honour the current periodic lease in place, rejuvenate the home or start afresh (STCC), this is a property that lets you move at your own pace while relishing every ounce of its privacy and solitude.
Offering two living areas, a central kitchen, casual dining and a brick-paved rear verandah, each connecting zone embraces a sunny northerly aspect - food for thought for those considering a future rebuild.
The U-shaped footprint also stretches out to deliver a private master wing with ensuite, leaving two rear bedrooms to utilise a spacious second bathroom.
If farming is the focus, the safe rainfall, equipped bore, mains water and excellent water storage all point to a property well equipped to earn its keep.
Yet you don't need to run cattle or cut hay to appreciate the acreage. Repurpose the historic ruins, build bonfires under the stars, or simply savour its just-out-of-town feeling - with unforgettable elbow room worth escaping for.
