"Glenbracken Farm"
172 Hectares or 425 Acres of stunning Fleurieu Peninsula coastline
Only 90km from Adelaide, this is just a different world. Majestic coastal cliffs, stunning sea views into Gulf St Vincent, productive pasture lands with grazing ewes and lambs and the pretty seaside village of Second Valley that happens to border the property. What a wonderful location!
When entering Second Valley the bitumen road dissects "Glenbracken" and the property is represented on both sides of the road. It feels like the property is the protector of the village on one side and the sea on the other. If Second Valley were to ever grow it would require the blessing of "Glenbracken" as it would require land from the property to do so.
With a history of prime lamb and cattle production the property currently runs 700 breeding ewes with prime lambs at foot. Grain growing and hay production are also part of the enterprises on the productive flats, just adding to the diversity of enterprise.
"Glenbracken" has been held in the Grundy family for 6 generations and the name reflects the heritage of these early Scottish settlers to this new world.
Watered by permanent springs in the Parananacooka River for livestock and with 160,000 litres of rainwater storage in place the property is water secure.
The solid brick homestead was built in 1980 and has a view over Second Valley and into Gulf St Vincent. It has lovely bones allowing the purchasers of "Glenbracken" the opportunity to renovate and do it their way.
All livestock infrastructure is in place including the shearing shed, sheep and cattle yards.
Being a true Mediterranean climate of hot dry summers and cool wet winters, the area is classed as very reliable in the South Australian property market.
Located just off the Adelaide to Kangaroo Island tourist trail "Glenbracken" is beautifully positioned to tap into this market. Especially with the Second Valley beach consistently being voted in the top 10 beaches in Australia.
