At last. A superbly presented, well located Adelaide Hills rural landholding bringing panoramic prime countryside, incredible scale, a pair of well-appointed homes, and the broadest possible scope for a range of agricultural pursuits on 1,079 sweeping acres (436 hectares). And for the horse enthusiast, an Olympic sized horse arena measuring 60m x 40m - more than enough to accommodate show jumping. Just 45 minutes from the Adelaide CBD, even closer to a host of Eastern suburbs schooling, 2kms from Ashbourne, roughly midway between Goolwa and Meadows, and 14kms to Strathalbyn, the land embraces 5 freehold titles, a full complement of sheep and cattle yards, sound infrastructure and shedding plus soils suitable for high capacity breeding, fattening or backgrounding operations. It sums up a solid commercial-ready operation all set to roll; and with strong spring pasture growth, it adds the certainty of a strategic land banking opportunity, now almost impossible to source in these near-city pockets. With 2 homes on site, the 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom double brick homestead, angled intentionally across sweeping easy-care grounds, exploits far-reaching rural views to Lake Alexandrina, The Coorong and Goolwa. Fresh, modern, and light-bathed interiors are bound by walls of glass, a bound-for-entertaining paved terrace and mature shade, creating a calm and sophisticated scene for the family, grazier, hobby rider or equestrian. Alternatively, the slightly smaller, brick-veneer 3-bedder makes an easy-care manager's retreat or comfortable guest stay with reverse cycle air conditioning and combustion heating. Rural, remarkably versatile, yet surprisingly close to convenience - mark the multitude of ways can you measure Marapana's worth… Improvements: -Double-brick 4-bed homestead maximising incredible views to Lake Alexandrina, the Coorong & Goolwa -Brick veneer 3-bed manager's home with combustion heating & R/C A/C -Sandstone garden cottage (alongside the main homestead.) -Olympic sized horse arena. -18m x 16m x 5m hay & implement shed. -15m x 12m x 4m implement shed. -17m x 10m x 4m powered & concreted implement shed with secure chemical section. -12m x 8m powered & concreted machinery shed + 2 workshops & secure kennels. -Shearing shed : 30m x 11m - 3 stand across the board shearing shed with overhead gear (2 Evo & 1 Sunbeam).
