CHARM, CHARACTER AND A SENSE OF HISTORY!!

This charming home, built in 1873 by builder John Pearce, has a rich history of ownership, each chapter adding to its character. Pearce, a master builder, lived here for nearly a decade before it was occupied by Isaac Goss, a skilled carpenter, builder, and undertaker, who resided in the home from 1882 to 1898. Goss also ran his business nearby in Best Place from 1878 to 1882. In 1923, Thomas Henry Wollacott, a prominent local builder and contractor who served as the long-time Mayor of Burra (1930-37, 1939-47), became the proud owner. During his tenure, he added the current verandah, enhancing the home's classic appeal. The legacy of these past owners is evident in the home's enduring beauty and charm, lovingly maintained over the years.
Recent Renovations and Interior Features:
The property has undergone thoughtful renovations, including a stylish new kitchen with modern cabinetry and brand-new appliances, including an oven, cooktop, and dishwasher. The home boasts polished timber floors throughout most of the spaces, with soft carpets in the bedrooms. Elegant, high decorative ceilings and three stunning fireplaces add character to the rooms, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The generously sized bedrooms include one currently used as a library or sitting room. The bathroom has been tastefully renovated with a shower, bathtub, and a rustic timber vanity that complements the country-style aesthetic. The laundry at the rear is practical and well-positioned, adding convenience.
Exterior Features:
The exterior of the home is equally impressive, featuring a return verandah with arched brick pillars that frame the house on two sides. Outdoors, you'll find a lovely outdoor area, a spacious 3-bay carport, and a storage shed. The beautifully landscaped gardens include stone moon garden, rose gardens, and a variety of fruit trees offering a productive orchard, vegetables and herbs.
The home's roof is in excellent condition, and it benefits from rainwater collection, with the option to switch to mains water if desired. Additional features include solar panels, slow combustion heating, and reverse cycle split-system air conditioning, ensuring year-round comfort.
This delightful property combines historic charm with modern amenities, offering a unique opportunity to own a piece of Burra's history.
