1062 Ferries Mcdonald Road

Monarto South SA 5254

Just minutes from the South Eastern Freeway and with all weather bitumen road access, this gently undulating, lightly wooded land offers a diverse range of possibilities for those with imagination, unique agricultural or horticultural aspirations or just a quest to enjoy a unique piece of Australia as a getaway from city life.

Sand, sand and more sand over limestone isn't everyone's idea of rural bliss, but this is a region that has supported everything from light sheep grazing to semi-aridland bush-tucker propagation and cultivation.

Whether that's your motivation or perhaps the urge to have your own land to run trail and quad bikes, practise your Finke Desert Race strategies, park your fleet of camels, exercise your horses in preparation for the next Tom Quilty Endurance Ride or just take on a meaningful bit of bush and wildlife habitat regeneration, it's worth the trip to walk this piece of land and listen to what it says to you.

Others' efforts over the years provide some improvements to the property, with a 3 bedroom residence, sheds and round-yard all being somewhat the worse for wear but ready to be refreshed and adapted to your use as weekender or base-camp. There's a small tank and access to an indirect mains water scheme for domestic and stock use.

The Ferries and McDonald families after whom the road was named, were pioneers in the region. Their derring-do, vision and hard work were just what this property seeks.
