Last Listing description (September 2024)

Nestled in the rich tapestry of history, this property boasts a heritage dating back to the 1880s. The Sisters of St Joseph erected a school on this site in 1881-2 together with accommodation for the nuns. The convent comprised four rooms and the large school hall. In 1906 a verandah was added and in 1927 an additional two rooms and a bathroom were built to give the nuns better facilities. The school and the convent closed in 1970 and the property has since been a private residence.
Situated on nearly one acre of land, it enjoys a prime location within strolling distance of the bustling market square in the heritage township of Burra plus offers the most magnificent views over the foothills of Burra.
The architecture is simply stunning, presenting itself as a grand double-fronted villa with two distinct wings. The original structure comprises the school hall and entrance, along with a 2 bedrooms in the early wing. A later addition includes the 2nd wing offering another bedrooms, a spacious living area, and an open-plan kitchen and dining space. Noteworthy is the laundry, showcasing a unique stone tunnel roof that once served as a cooling room in bygone eras.

The kitchen has been tastefully renovated, retaining its early settler charm with a butler's sink and island, offering ample preparation and storage space. The living area exudes warmth with its generous proportions and a magnificent open fireplace. Throughout the residence, original features such as timber floorboards, lofty ceilings, sash windows, and high skirtings evoke a sense of timeless elegance.
Stepping into the well-preserved school hall, one is transported back in time, with the original chalkboard still adorning the walls. Also, accessed from the kitchen, this space retains its historic charm and is complemented by its double French doors side entry.
The original cross, dating 1872 still spires the school hall.
The property's exterior is equally captivating, with a beautiful stone wall delineating the boundary and the remnants of a once-active tennis court, alongside male and female toilets. The gardens offer a blank canvas for those with a green thumb, with the added allure of two ancient carob trees adding to the ambiance.
With its blend of historic charm, coveted location, and breathtaking views, this residence epitomizes class and sophistication, offering a truly unique opportunity to own a piece of Burra's illustrious past.
