Set near the end of a no-through road between Wistow and Strathalbyn, 'Greenholm' delivers the kind of privacy and quiet that's becoming increasingly harder to find. This 114-acre holding feels like a genuine retreat - a place where the noise drops away, the sky opens up, and the rhythm of rural life takes over.

The sealed driveway leads you down to a tucked-away surprise, completely shielded from view. The home sits comfortably in a protected position, recently uplifted with tasteful kitchen and main bathroom upgrades that blend seamlessly with its country character. It's a practical, honest base for living well in the landscape.

Head up to the high ground and the property reveals its full scope.
