Tucked away in the heart of South Australia's mid north sits iconic property "Abergavenny" situated on approximately 7.48 Hectares. With the property originally settled back in 1871 (approx.) by Caleb Peacock being the previous Mayor of Adelaide in 1875. The substantial seven roomed stone homestead was built by the second owner Mr James Gallway in 1878 (approx), with the stone being quarried locally to support the build. The front of the home stands proud with an elevation of approximately 8 feet. This elevation has allowed for two cellars and the impressive grand steps stretching up to the U shaped eyelash veranda. The property changed hands a number of times over the past 150 years but was purchased by the current owners back in 2013, and has since seen some updates and renovations that have kept in synch with its regal charm. This 1878 (approx.) built home now stands proud on top of the hill overlooking the township of Jamestown.
