Just under two minutes drive from the Main Street of Woodside but far enough away to not hear a peep, the only thing you will hear is the running river water, wildlife and local farmers going about their daily business.
Within easy reach of everything The Hills and Adelaide have to offer this rural lifestyle property with ample water, great shedding, privacy and a solid brick three bedroom home will appeal to families, ex farmers, or those that want to be.
The Western Branch of the Onkaparinga River weaves its way through the mature semi-formal garden with rich river loam paddocks on one side and most of the improvements on the other. There are two bores on the property plus a dam, excellent shedding with a cool room and a solid brick home that would have oozed style and class when it was built back in the 1950's.
What we love about this property is its privacy, location, land size, river loam soils, and semi-formal garden. The garden has many mature deciduous trees and shrubs framing a large lawn area which rolls all the way down to the River. It's very picturesque! We also love the lie of the land. It's all useable with only a slight undulation. Once established as a Gladioli Farm and with a long history of grazing, the productive land is segregated into four paddocks, two on each side of the river including cattle yards on one side and Deer fencing on the other. The house paddock is approximately 4 acres and includes the primary infrastructure including the tanks, bore, house, shedding and garden. The house paddock and Deer fenced paddock also have side road access up Woodroffe Rd making stock handling easy and, because there is no house located on Woodroffe road it is safe and quiet and only used by the neighbouring farmer to access his back paddocks. The property has sealed road access at the front gate and is only 2.2km from Woodside.
Other important features for a rural lifestyle property is water of which there is plenty on this property. You can draw from the river for stock and domestic purposes and there is a large 22,000 gallon concrete rainwater tank near the shed complex that will cater for larger families. There are a further two header tanks in the garden feeding back to the house via a filtered system. The garden grounds are fed directly by the bore tank and the gas hot water system to the house is fed by the header tank. A water map and the property's handyman will be available to assist the new owners upon settlement.
Inside the house you will find Jarrah floorboards, upgraded JAG kitchen with black granite benchtops a Miele Dishwasher and gas cooktop. The bathroom, laundry and kitchen were upgraded around 10 years ago and there is a combined mud room, laundry, toilet and second shower alcove with external access to the all-season outdoor entertainment area. Due to the amount of improvements and features relating to this property please find an extensive list of features below.
An ideal property for those looking for an affordable, well located, private and productive lifestyle in one of the Hills most sought-after family regions 'Woodside', this property will appeal to upsizers, rural downsizers, gardeners, graziers, rural enthusiasts or the those looking for a breath of fresh air.
