A sweeping collage of beauty and commerciality on two freehold titles, Second Valley Farm chronicles a colonial past with uniquely restored and extended 1850s iconic splendour across 218 acres, conveniently in touch with the city and the region's pristine coastline.
First settled in 1845 by Henry Jones, you need only roam the verdant grounds, cleverly re-designed to highlight its breathtaking paddock-to-sea valley vistas, and the entire property's sensitive and creative refurbishments to fully grasp this once in a lifetime opportunity.
One that has a tale or two to tell and a broad-minded future ahead.
And from the c1850 homestead's stone-clad stance to its reworked interiors framed by exposed timber beams, its four lavish bedrooms, home office, twin cellars, and mezzanine reading retreat with a sunset balcony, time could easily stand still.
Owned by the Pember family for the last 36 years, it's also set the scene for all three of their children's weddings. The private grounds enriched by the scent of formal rose gardens, forager's vegie beds, botanicals, a truffle plantation, and a fruit orchard.
There's even a pétanque piste.
The original stables, reborn firstly as a shearing shed and now lovingly restored as barn-style entertaining. Accommodating a galley kitchen, bathroom, pool table and games room under the original beams, and exits to a deck, pizza oven, and firepit.
Seemingly miles from Main South Road, the land boasts excellent cattle yards, fenced to 16 main paddocks, high quality pastures, productive agricultural and hay country, and exceptional water supply for livestock, domestic use and irrigation via the Parananacooka River springs; a 58-meg water licence also irrigates the flats.
A landholding of inexplicable calibre capturing the Fleurieu's most scenic views, a stroll to Second Valley beach; as an iconic home with heart, soul, and history, Second Valley Farm stands alone as one of the best.
