This tightly held slice of Alice Springs history was originally built as the famous local winery known as Chateau Hornsby. Its current owners completely renovated the premises in 2013 and the property boasts three bedrooms and three bathrooms and toilets under the main roof. The main bedroom and ensuite with adjacent courtyard provide a spacious and private retreat.
There are two separate fully self-contained residences, a double and a single bedroom respectively. Each residence offers merbau decking verandas and split system A/C which are ideal as separate rentals/B&Bs offering the potential for a solid income or perfect for multi-generational family living.
