Blue Lake Mount Gambier

AREA PROFILE

Mount Gambier - South Australia's second largest city is located halfway between Adelaide and Melbourne.

It is a thriving regional centre set amidst a unique landscape of temperate fertile volcanic soils over-lying the cool waters of limestone filtered aquifers. The city is famous for the unique Blue Lake which mysteriously changes to vivid cobalt blue, culminating during our summer season.

Nature's show time includes intriguing caves, beautifully landscaped sinkholes, the natural beauty of the Valley Lakes recreational area, boardwalks, lookouts and nature walks. The city features quality recreational facilities, magnificent gardens and galleries, along with modern shopping facilities, a range of restaurants and cafes and a diversity of accommodation.

The outlying rural areas contain some of the richest and most productive agricultural land in South Australia. Dairying, beef, and sheep production, wool, seed and grain production and horticulture are the predominant agricultural activities. The Port MacDonnell fishing industry, in particular the rock lobster industry, is a significant factor in the economy of the area. Forestry production and related secondary industries of logging, milling and production of paper are major economic and employment generating activities.

Features such as the spectacular coastline and the natural and built heritage, including Canunda National Park and Lake Bonney, make the area a popular and growing tourist destination and a recreational playground for local, national and international visitors.

The P & L Real Estate Team

Established in October 2004, P & L Livestock Pty Ltd was joint venture established by directors Owen Pettingill and Peter Lamond as a stock and station business predominantly with a livestock focus. They saw the need to provide an independent agency that could service the rural sector with a more personal approach. After a few months the company saw the need to also provide real estate services to its growing client base and in early 2005 a real estate arm was also added, headed up by Peter’s daughter, Gail Richards.

P & L Real Estate has grown immensely since this time, expanding its sales team to three, with the addition of Peter’s brother Al Lamond in 2007 and Owen’s daughter Brooke, firstly in administration in 2007 and then joining the sales team in 2009. P & L is a family orientated business and finds its success lies in its continued loyalties to its clients and providing service over and above client expectations. 

Owen Pettingill is Real Estate Principal & Auctioneer and has over 33 years experience as a real estate manager and auctioneer. Gail Richards has over eight years experience in the Real Estate industry and the company prides itself on its growth in the industry and what the P & L name stands for and has become - a respected and market place leader.

P & L Real Estate specialize in a broad range of rural and residential sales, house & land packages, as well as coastal and country living properties and have a large array of knowledge and expertise in subdivision and council processes.
