Have you ever dreamt of making the change, working from home, starting that new adventure that has been brewing within you for years, relocating to a bustling country town only 2 hours from Adelaide? Truly, if you have a desire for change then it could all happen here, just bring your dreams, an open mind and look this is a very unique and special property.
The property is located within the town centre zoning which offers the possibility for a range of commercial activities. It is on the corner of Ryan Street and Blanche Terrace; the two shops face the main road into Moonta offering fantastic exposure. The allotment is 1614sqm with two titles.
The residence is a magnificent character return verandah villa with front bay window on the master bedroom and overlooks a lovely front garden. There is certainly no way it could be missed as you drive into Moonta. Stepping inside will take you back to grand time when the beautiful features were in every room of the house; marble fireplaces, high ceilings, picture rails, ornate cornices and ceiling roses. Walking through the home will have you in awe of the craftsmanship of yesteryear.
The home has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 3 living areas and has a large circular cellar under the kitchen. The master bedroom is over 6m long and has a beautiful marble fireplace. The four bedrooms circle the main bathroom which has a claw bath, separate shower and long vanity. There are three living rooms; a large welcoming formal lounge with exposed polished timber floors and fireplace of course. The formal lounge leads into the sitting room which could be a private retreat away from guests or perhaps a very large study. From the sitting room there is then the open plan kitchen meals area with feature stone walls, combustion heater, split system air conditioner and tiled floors. The timber kitchen has feature pressed metal around the cupboard walls, 900mm electric cooktop with wall oven, microwave nook and dishwasher. The surprise is under the kitchen floor and accessed from a trapdoor. A large dry circular cellar is a treasure that will keep your wines and other precious items in safe keeping. Accessible from the sitting room is a second bathroom which would be very helpful for visitors or a larger family.
The two shops are the jewel that makes this property stand out from the pack. They have been used for many different purposes; antique gift shop, coffee shop, artist studio, auction rooms, takeaway pizza, fruit and veg, pet food and a real estate agency. These shops have only been in the last 30yrs, what could it have been in all the decades before? More importantly what could it be to you today? Could it be an income stream by taking in one or two business tenants? Could it be the street face of a business that you want to relocate from metro to the country? Could it be the step up from running your business from your shed or room at home and now you have street exposure and walk-in clientele? Shop one, closest to the house has its front windows adjacent to the footpath, 122sqm of ground floor space and then a huge studio above for storage or workshop. Shop two has 72sqm of floorspace with 74sqm of courtyard out front. Both have their own electricity meters, separate from the residence.
The question really is, are you going to be bold enough to act. To follow your dreams, to acknowledge that this is the opportunity that you have been looking for and now is the time to secure your future.
The property is available by private inspection only. The purchase price is by application to the selling agent. To arrange your viewing or to discuss price, call Tim Hosking 0419 168 989
