Ever thought you'd love to escape, get away from it all, back to a simple life, comfortable and with you in control? Secluded on 2472sqm (approx) this could be the solution, a way into the market or a downsize to secure your future and build your vision. Renovate, extend, demolish, it has some sound opportunities. As one of the few remaining very large holdings, you could purchase and subdivide STCC, as many have in the area. A simple but honest 1960's cottage, from an era where bigger wasn't best. It's a colourful, light filled home which has evolved to meet family needs.
Stepping down from the road onto a terraced and lawned front garden, you're surrounded by greenery, take on the challenge; tame it, tend it, create a greener haven. A wonderful wisteria vine drapes across the facade of the cottage, bursting with colour in season and shading during summer months.
Enter a charming world of an alternative Boho vibe, an eclectic mix from grand marble, tiled iron fireplace and mantle (negotiable if not being demolished, a prized possession) to the cosy comfort of the pot belly fire. The L-shaped lounge dining opens into the extended section of the home providing a separate music/activity room.
The bedrooms all double sized have garden views, one currently disposed as a study/library and all with ceiling fans.
The kitchen has a wonderful country, family feel. It has loads of storage and a great gas topped range. The double sink and double drainer look out over garden views, doing dishes is almost a pleasure!
The heritage bathroom is renovated with original claw foot bath and semi frameless shower.
From the full laundry, off the kitchen, step out to a vast undercover alfresco zone, perched looking out over the land. This serves as an outdoor room for barbecues and entertaining, doubling as a studio. What a way to kick back and relax after returning from work. Let the kids run wild, you can't see the bottom boundary, there is adventure awaiting. Control it, create your dream garden on this rich productive soil or bowl it over and share the site as there's room for a subdivision.
Having a taste of freedom over many years, the vendor is going even further afield. So this treasure comes to the market, offering new owners an opportunity to live the rural life minutes from Blackwood with its wonderful amenities. Close to transport, bus, trains, beaches and with the hills on your doorstep. Selections of quality colleges and schools are close by with Flinders University minutes away and the CBD less than a 20 minute drive.
This will appeal to a wide range of buyers, from first home owners, to those wanting an alternative lifestyle or home schooling options, to retiring farmers, investors or developers.
City commutable, country community, developers delight!
