EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST
Ray White Mt Gambier are pleased to present this sanctuary by the sea at 150 Dingley Dell Road, Port MacDonnell.
'Ingleside' offers a sea change, tree change and reliable income all in one spectacular package spanning 43.2 highly productive hectares (106 acres) located just minutes from the lobster capital of Port MacDonnell. Close enough to the coast to hear the ocean's roar with cosmopolitan Mount Gambier less than half an hour away, this is the ultimate rural retreat.
Currently operating as a profitable grazing enterprise with 7 well-fenced paddocks, extensive shedding, timber/steel cattle yards and an excellent fertiliser history, Ingleside is a truly reliable holding situated in an area of secure rainfall (800mm / annum).
A magnificent stone homestead positioned within meticulously manicured grounds lies at the heart of Ingleside. Built to last with solid WA limestone walls and timber French doors opening onto wide ironbark verandahs, it has wow-factor with the added luxury of space when it comes to entertaining or relaxing.
Antique timber doors lead to the master bedroom featuring a generous walk-in wardrobe and en suite with freestanding bath - all surrounded by a private walled courtyard showcased by floor to ceiling windows for ultimate stargazing. Bespoke handcrafted steel and glass doors installed either end of the long hallway create a separate wing for three more bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a three-way bathroom fitted with two basins plus separate bath and shower, and spacious laundry with Miele appliances.
The generous open plan living area with its 7-metre raked timber ceilings and alluring wood fire seating area has an impeccably designed kitchen and sun-drenched 'conservatory' that overlooks the manicured grounds. There's also a light-filled office tucked away beyond the enormous lounge room, which boasts calming views of native scrubland and external access for added lifestyle flexibility - it's work-from-home heaven!
When it comes to outdoor entertaining, the rear verandah with its salvaged leadlight windows is the perfect spot to enjoy happy hour. There's also a fire pit and family campground within fenced native scrub, while the shed is the ultimate man cave / party zone, featuring a stainless steel camp kitchen, lounge with pot belly fire, bathroom and mezzanine bedroom. The adjacent "main" shedding has to be seen to be believed - in addition to the large workshop and extra mezzanine level of storage, it's large enough to store a 53-foot fishing boat, cars, tractors, caravans - all the toys, plus dual driveway access. And right beside it, you'll find the kitchen garden with a glasshouse and raised vegetable boxes, an orchard, expansive chicken coop and established native and European trees bore-irrigated by automatic sprinklers.
Exceptional parcels of this size, quality and location - including dual road frontage - are seldom offered to the market. Especially with all the hard work done. Simply move in and start making the next generation of memories in an unmatched rural setting.
