"Aberfoyle" - Country Garden Sanctuary on Prime Acreage - Three Titles

For Sale as a Whole or in three non-contingent lots.
Tucked away at the end of a long drive, Aberfoyle reveals itself like a secret - a breathtaking sanctuary set on 279.25 acres of rich grazing pastures in Kongorong, just 20 minutes south-west of Mount Gambier.
From its origins as a Soldier-settler dairy farm, evolving into a thriving beef, cattle, and prime lamb operation, the homestead has flourished under three generations of Lightbody family stewardship. Over time, the property became one of the Limestone Coast's most celebrated gardens - where roses climb arbours, paths meander through hidden alcoves, and countless family and community moments have been cherished.
For the first time in a century, Aberfoyle opens its gates to a new custodian - inviting the next chapter of life, laughter, and legacy to unfold across its fertile pastures and storied gardens. Steeped in history, shaped by care, creativity, and a rare sense of freedom, this remarkable estate now invites its next owner to continue its legacy.
A Home with Soul
From the moment you arrive, Aberfoyle feels deeply personal. It has the warmth of a place that has always had its doors open - a home where people dropped in, laughter carried through the rooms, and the kettle was rarely cool. Its spaces evolved organically over time, shaped by family life and the rhythm of country seasons.
Sunlight floods the generous living areas of the four-bed main residence, highlighted by an open-plan, light-filled modern country kitchen with wood floors, framed by picture windows that capture views of lawns and roses. Upstairs additions in more recent times, sweeping verandahs, and garden-view rooms trace the homestead's evolution - not through grand design, but through care, creativity, and the quiet desire to make a house ever more welcoming.
As the family reflects, "It was always just a really good, safe, family home - everyone was welcome. There was always something happening and plenty of memories being made."
A Garden of Stories
To wander through Aberfoyle's gardens is to step into a storybook of colour, fragrance, and care. What began as a modest country garden slowly grew over generations into one of the region's most admired open gardens - a place that brought joy to thousands. Roses became its signature - climbing over arbours, filling long borders, and scenting the summer air.
