15 Aldgate-Strathalbyn Road is one of the larger allotments with main road frontage inside the township area. There is an existing home dating back to 1925, however in need of renovation and or removal for a dwelling of your choice. An excellent development opportunity subject to council consents, on a large block of approximately 2535m2. Property also has its own domestic bore and existing pump.
Just 35 minutes from Adelaide, 15 minutes from Mount Barker and 10 minutes to Hahndorf (and Southern Freeway), Echunga offers the perfect balance - close enough to the city for convenience, yet far enough away to feel the peace and space of true country living.
Echunga's tree-lined streets and heritage stone cottages tell stories from the gold rush era, while modern country homes and lifestyle properties cater to today's needs. Wide open spaces, clean air, and a slower pace make it an ideal place to raise a family, work from home, or simply unwind.
Founded in the 1840s and home to South Australia's first goldfield, Echunga is steeped in heritage. You'll find historic hotels, quaint churches, and walking trails that wind past old mine sites - each adding to the township's unique character.
15 Aldgate-Strathalbyn Road is within easy walking distance to the friendly primary school, local sporting clubs, and a welcoming church and pub at its heart, Echunga thrives on connection. Whether you're cheering at the footy, strolling through nearby markets, or enjoying a meal with neighbours, you'll feel part of something special.
Large land parcels this size don't come onto the market very often, therefore a property worthy of consideration.
