Wine, wealth and lifestyle awaits at this multi-income estate in South Australia
Wine buffs, imagine entertaining guests in your own home while serving a vintage you’ve crafted yourself, straight from your private cellar.
Or better still, see your own wine, complete with a custom label, featured in local bars, restaurants and boutique bottle shops.
Your vision can become a reality with this rare opportunity in the fertile hills of Virginia, South Australia, where a fully operational winery, processing plant and cellar door await through wrought-iron gates and up a long driveway dotted with established gum trees.
Just a 30-minute drive from the Adelaide CBD, the 12-hectare property at 788 Old Port Wakefield Road features a thriving horticulture venture with existing leases in place.
The property, with a sale price of $12.5 million, ticks all the boxes, offering lifestyle and instant income potential, and promising long-term investment opportunities.

Future opportunities have been flagged for the area with deferred urban zoning, which could lead to a high-return residential transformation for this piece of paradise.
Ray White Grange agent James Aubert says buyers are being given a rare opportunity to invest in a property that provides immediate income and the scaffolding to diversify operations.
Aubert says the fast-growing Virginia – a rural suburb on the outskirts of Adelaide – and neighbouring Riverlea Park and Angle Vale are enjoying high land release values.
“What this means for the buyer is with zoning being flagged as future urban, this property could be the flagship of one of the north’s biggest residential transformations,’’ he says.
“It’s an ideal combination of business and investment, providing buyers with the unique opportunity to manage a fully operational enterprise from the very first day.
“It’s also a strategic investment for developers and for those forward-thinking buyers.
“Buyers can take advantage of the existing and established income streams or make it their own.’’
The winery production component of the property features a processing plant with a temperature-controlled barrel shed, high-quality stainless steel tanks, fermenters, refrigerators and a sizable storage cellar.
The well-established cellar door includes a producer’s licence, ensuring a seamless transition with no operational downtime for the new owners, who can choose to continue with the existing wine label or launch their own.
The licence allows the new owners to conduct direct-to-public sales.
Overlooking the lush grounds, the cellar door offers an inviting space to welcome and entertain guests on the property.
With energy prices continuing to soar, a 30-kilowatt solar system on the property provides adequate energy output to sustain the commercial building.
Virginia provides South Australia with agricultural produce, making the horticulture side of the property a solid investment.
The property has outstanding street appeal from both Angle Vale Road and Old Port Wakefield Road and is just moments from the Northern Expressway and major freight routes.
It is a two-minute commute from the centre of Virginia, less than five minutes from Riverlea Park and 10 minutes from Angle Vale’s suburban hub.
The property has a sale price of $12.5 million through Ray White Grange.
