190 RING ROAD, Morgan, SA, 5320
If low cost living and wide-open spaces appeal to you, this property is definitely worth a closer look. With well-established native trees and lots of room for your furry friends, this 12.5 acre property is ideally located only 4.5 km from the township of Morgan & the Murray River.
The property boasts a solid & comfortable 3-bedroom mud brick home, 24 kL water tank capacity, numerous sheds, animal enclosures, and a dam.
The home is built from locally crafted mud bricks, making it cool in summer and warm in winter, with exposed timber beams recycled from the Port Adelaide woolsheds adding to its earthy ambience. The home has 3 bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, a kitchen/dining room, a large walk-in pantry, living room, sunroom, laundry, bathroom, separate toilet, and a wrap-around veranda.
There are no utility bills to pay, as solar panels provide all the necessary power, and if you ever run out of solar-heated hot water, there is always the back-up gas heater. Staying toasty warm in winter is easy thanks to the slow combustion wood fire heater & the natural insulation provided by the mud brick walls.
The sale of the property comes with a licence to pump 500 kL annually from the nearby Murray River, plus a registered water truck, this means an abundant and constant water supply that is cheap & easy to access.
For the past 20 years this property has been a sanctuary for the sick, injured or orphaned wildlife of the Riverland region. The animal enclosures are ideally suited for this purpose or they could be easily adapted for other uses.
All the hard work has been done. Now it’s time for someone else to shape this property into their own vision of eco-friendly living in the vast expanse of the South Australian Riverland.
