Set in the picturesque and old glacial valley of Tooperang in a reliable 800mm rainfall zone is this 115.1HA (approx. 284 acre) property known as “Mountain Lakes”. This farm is among the larger properties on the Fleurieu Peninsula and offers prospective purchasers the opportunity to engage in a larger grazing operation.
There is a total of six dams on the property. The main dam, with an estimated capacity of 13million gallons (59,000KL) is spring fed. The top dam is breathtaking and the perfect spot for a family picnic and paddle in a canoe. There are four smaller dams and one of these is also spring fed. An equipped bore produces 14,000gph of water suitable for irrigation, however no licence or allocation will pass with the property.
There are two pockets of native scrub and the current owner has catalogued hundreds of photographs of native flowers. After 30 years on the property, the Vendors are retiring into the town.
Currently operating as part of a larger dairy farm operation, this property is prime dairy, beef and sheep country.
Improvements include the 2 bedroom home (plus sleepout) built in the early 1900’s and still in good repair to this day. 16 Solar panels on the roof provide a welcome relief from the ever increasing power bills. The home is set back slightly from the bitumen road giving privacy but also easy access to Strathalbyn, Goolwa and Mount Compass.
The near new Olympic garage with power and lights, and full concrete floor measures 9.1m x 9m and one bay is sectioned off – ideal for storage. It is fully secure and lockable. Also included is an old workshop and vintage shearing shed.
“Mountain Lakes” is full of water, full of views and full of potential. Arrange a private inspection today.
