Rarely does a property of 2800m2 in a charming central yet peaceful location in town come onto the market with the potential to recoup a substantial amount of the asking price. The land at the rear of the home could be sub-divided, subject to Council approval, but then you may prefer the luxury of space and the opportunity to go ahead and create your own piece of paradise.
This delightful characterful stone residence has privacy, peace and space from the neighbours with the additional boundary of a green fringe of sugar gums and fir trees from an adjacent parkland and bird sanctuary. You could just leave the car at home and walk because Main Street shopping facilities including the library, three pubs, the post office, schools and kindy, cafes, sporting facilities and the Kapunda Medical Practice are all five minutes away or less.
The 3 bedroom residence is in excellent condition with good to large size rooms and high ceilings. It has been considerately refurbished to maintain the charm of its era, with modern updates. Several original features show off its character, including open fireplaces and surrounds in the lounge and main bedroom, a functional original South Australian manufactured cast iron wood stove in the kitchen, ornate pressed tin ceilings and original Baltic Pine flooring, yet the polished cement floors in the kitchen and sunroom blend seamlessly, adding a rustic Mediterranean allure to this property.
The west facing sunroom at the rear of the home features expansive, made to measure cedar framed windows and screens and opens to the deck; a relaxing entertainment space to enjoy a glass of wine under the magnificent blazing sunset skies of an evening, with parrots ducking and diving over the fruit trees.
A series of original stone built rooms, including the original millhouse manager’s office with fireplace, adjoin the stunning original stone wall boundary along quiet Robe Street, known for its heritage style cottages. The Millhouse once serviced the productive mill next door back in the day, however the Mill itself is only a memory now. The spaces that remain are clean, dry and sturdy. These rooms provide loads of character, a rustic backdrop and useful storage areas or workrooms for the handyman, gardener or artisan.
Renovations and maintenance were carried out on the stone wall boundaries by experienced stone masons in 2016, ensuring longevity for generations to come. A set of vegetable garden beds are laid out with the rustic look of the stone wall behind.
A variety of fruit trees, including cherry, apricot, olive, almonds, fig, nectarine, orange and a highly productive lemon tree populate the garden whilst the current owner has planted a dozen olive trees on the western boundary.
