REMARKS:
The property sits in the central Adelaide prescribed wells area and therefore is not affected by the limitations on water use from the large dam for irrigation purposes, which is sufficient for commercial scale irrigation. In addition to the full capacity water from the dam, an application has been made to the department of Water, Land and Biodiversity Conservation for water from the bore to irrigate 2 hectares. This outstanding rural living lifestyle property offers “The best of two worlds”, that is country living at its best yet on the doorstep of the eastern suburbs and through to Adelaide, which is only a 20 minute drive. It has an abundance of water due to the equipped bore, very large dam, second smaller dam and very large quantity of rainwater storage. The separate living quarters provide additional accommodation, for example, for teenagers. Three phase power is connected to the property which is a great benefit to tradespeople or light commercial, home based operators.
