Remarkably, over its century-long history, this majestic abode has been cherished by only four owners.

The impressive federation villa is nestled within a spacious park-like allotment in a great location within walking distance of Lake Alexandrina and local amenities. The original building has been enhanced by a large classic extension and upstairs master suite.

The character of the home is undeniable. Striking elements include a grand entrance, original pressed-tin ceilings adorned with central roses, stunning chandeliers, sculpted picture rails, and broad-board scrubbed and polished timber floors. Four open fireplaces with superb period mantels add warmth and rich character, making this property a true blend of history and charm.

This unique home boasts a versatile floorplan featuring three bedrooms, one bathroom, two toilets, a laundry and two living areas, one of which is currently utilized as a bright art studio, protected by the sun by a full-width alcove verandah, but is equally suited as a sunroom or fourth bedroom. The impressive staircase leads to the master bedroom, adorned with peep windows overlooking the frontage with views to Mt Barker and the Mt Lofty ranges beyond.

The huge but cosy kitchen, designed in a traditional country style, seamlessly integrates with the dining space and is equipped with a dishwasher, electric oven, and an open fireplace.

A huge verandah / outdoor living space completes the rear of the dwelling. Enclosed in shade cloth, the 40m2 entertainment area looks upon an attached fernery and compact rockery and is ideal for undercover socialising or relaxing.

The dog-proof fenced exterior grounds are expansive and boast winding pathways adorned with native plants and succulents leading to a large outdoor fire-pit and three sheds varying in size. The rear gated garden includes a potential vegetable patch with a woodshed and plenty of room for fruit trees or chooks.

A charming allotment with a 45-metre road frontage, this impressive property presents an ideal opportunity for subdivision (subject to council consent), a pool, or full sized tennis court - the potential is unlimited.

Conveniently located just a 500-metre walk from the Milang foreshore, a 15-minute drive to Strathalbyn, a 25-minute drive to Goolwa, and just over an hour to Adelaide, this stunning old stone home offers both historical charm and modern convenience. This property with its abundant character and rich history is truly deserving of love and attention, ready to welcome its next chapter.
