Last Listing description (October 2020)

Ray White Mt Gambier are pleased to present for sale Lot 12, Mountain Path Road, Mount Schank.
This historic volcano crater is about as unique a location for a home or business as they come. Situated on the edge of the iconic cone-shaped mountain, it features approximately 11.5 stunning acres of land and a stone-built cottage with lots of original qualities retained from 1866 when it was first settled by the Ashby family.
Just approximately 15 minutes south of the rural city of Mount Gambier on the Limestone Coast, Mount Schank is a beautiful and secluded historic volcano. Now extinct, the volcano dates back some 5,000 years, having erupted at roughly the same time as Mount Gambier, when the earth was active. It now provides stunning views and historic nature walks and with only a few neighbouring properties, Mountain Path Road is a quiet and serene location to inhabit.

The land for sale sits opposite a community and tourist park with public toilets and barbecue facilities with the private property yours to enjoy as the landscape changes from season to season. Wonder at the scenery from your doorstep and receive visitors from all walks of life, with nature a part of the lifestyle here, you'll be sharing this environment with kangaroos, koalas, and a range of birdlife.
The original cottage sits near the entrance and is surrounded by natural vegetation and benefits from stunning and preserved character pieces including the timber flooring, raked timber ceiling, and stone fireplace a significant reason for retaining the building for renovation. It currently offers 2 bedrooms, bathroom, a lounge room with original fireplace and slow combustion wood fire and a kitchen/dining room with lots of original features including exposed timber beams and a larder with brickwork surround and a tiled splashback running around the stovetop, bench and plumbed-in sink areas.
There is a large verandah at the rear as well and a smaller verandah at the front entry adjacent a sunroom that also functions as an entrance. The building is ready for extensive renovations to make it a lovely and historical outbuilding to complement a new property, or a completely made-over version of its former self.
The land is well established with a bore and original hand dug well but it's the unique charm and historical significance here that will make it a dream location for the right buyer.
Whether the plan is to reside here permanently or create a business (S.T.C.A), the potential is incredibly exciting. Plant a volcanic vineyard, orchard or timber lot, offer tourist accommodation, create a unique dining experience, or simply build the house of your dreams the opportunity is here for the taking!
A venture like this seldom presents itself so get in touch with Tahlia at Ray White Mt Gambier and visit the location to experience the magic for yourself and visualise that next chapter erupting. RLA291953
