1560 Inman Valley Road

Inman Valley SA 5211

There's plenty to do here with a Pioneer style dwelling, built by local stonemason, Buchanan in the 1890's for Henry Martin, replacing a small wattle and daub cottage. This today has created an exciting architect's dream - one saturated in exposed brick, stone and concrete hosting 4 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, and plenty of possibility.

Plus, 2 unexpected contemporary and fully upgraded bathrooms.

Settled deep in the area's picturesque pastoral region of Inman Valley, midway between Victor Harbor and Yankalilla, the cottage was once nick-named the 'Halfway House,' the rest-and-revive spot for the mail coach and tourers traipsing between Victor and Yankalilla.

The slate steps from road to cottage are still visible, the property's old iron includes a shearing shed with attached implement storage and workshop and a previously yabby/storage shed, and the archaic tennis court - once the Inman Valley Tennis Club's well-used overflow court - is more concrete food for thought.

Immense, light-filled, and undeniably 1975, the open plan living room addition with a louvred servery pass and combustion fire begs for new beginnings - a lonely stainless rangehood is the kitchen's limit.

Yet its surrounds, blessed by the Inman River edging the rear boundary, the magnificent gums, birdlife, and established gardens are all the beauty and tranquillity this 2-acre rarity needs.
Just a kilometre to Inman Valley town, it puts you, your family, and guests in good stead for Glacier Rock, local fishing, walking trails including passing Heysen Trail, or the coveted coastal hotspots of Victor Harbor, Normanville, Yankalilla, and Myponga beach.

We say go for it.
