1 Henry Street

Moonta SA 5558

When you drive past Queens Square in the historic Moonta township you cannot help but admire this beautiful character residence of a bygone era.
Beautiful home situated on a corner block on 2120m2 of land on 2 individual allotments. The grace and elegance of this residence is obvious from the street and you will be pleasantly surprised when you view from the inside. As you walk through the front door you are greeted by the wide majestic entrance hall with ornate leadlight and lovely timber doors and skirting boards and original fibrous plaster ceilings and cornices 3.8m high. There are 5 spacious bedrooms and separate formal dining room with s/c heating and formal lounge and there are 4 rooms with fireplaces and stunning mantelpieces. The rear renovation of this home is a credit to the owners in keeping with the living history of this home. Part of the renovation is the authentic Jarrah kitchen with solid granite bench tops and quality Smeg appliances including a large pyrolytic self cleaning oven, range hood, built in microwave and dishwasher and your own private wine cellar to safely store your favourites. The family room, bathroom and laundry areas are also part of the renovation and there are 2 toilets. There is reverse cycle ducted air conditioning to the rear of the home and ceiling fans throughout the home.
The roof, gutters and bullnose verandah were replaced 12 years ago. The return verandahs and lacework of this home is breathtaking. The outside undercover bbq/living area also adds to the areas you can also enjoy and includes a cozy pot belly stove. Access and storage on this property is not an issue with the huge 9m x 12m shed with 3 metre high roller doors and a lined games room inside for the teenagers to enjoy. The gardens are blooming and well established with an automatic watering system. This home is real living history and is a close walk to the trendy cafes of Moonta and a short drive to Moonta Bay and Port Hughes white sandy beaches.
