A rare opportunity to secure a landmark property that captures the charm of a bygone era with the luxury of space, style, and spectacular views. Set across two titles on a combined 2,778m² (approx.) of elevated land, this timeless residence enjoys an iconic position atop the hill, offering sweeping vistas across the township of Victor Harbor to Granite Island and The Bluff at Encounter Bay.
Originally constructed circa 1937, with a substantial western red cedar extension added in the 1950s, this beautifully maintained home is a nostalgic nod to Victor Harbor's golden age as South Australia's premier coastal retreat. From sunrise to sunset, the outlook is nothing short of breathtaking.
A private driveway leads to a paved parking bay, where you're welcomed into the spacious family room. Surrounded by wall-to-wall windows on three sides, natural light floods the space year-round. Four sets of French doors open to the attractive gardens and the generous paved patio-perfect for entertaining with the ever-changing ocean as your backdrop. Slate floors, a slow-combustion fireplace, and reverse-cycle split air conditioning ensure comfort and ambiance throughout the seasons.
At the heart of the home, a spacious country-style kitchen delivers form and function in equal measure, featuring a large island bench, extensive cabinetry, a gas cooktop, Smeg oven, and dishwasher. French doors seamlessly extend the living space onto the outdoor terrace, where sea breezes and coastal views set the scene for unforgettable gatherings.
The home unfolds across two thoughtfully designed wings. The formal wing features polished jarrah floorboards, a charming sitting room with sash windows and open fireplace, from here you can access the tiled front verandah - definitely the spot to enjoy your morning coffee as the sun rises over the ocean. The home office also with jarrah boards, could easily become another bedroom if required – the master suite with polished pine boards, comes with built-in robes and private ensuite.
The second wing, accessed via the family room, offers three additional bedrooms, a full central bathroom with shower over bath, and a functional laundry-perfectly suited for families or guests.
The landscaped gardens are lush yet low-maintenance, with expanses of lawn, mature trees, and elegant standard roses enhancing the tranquil atmosphere. A separate garage/workshop provides practical storage or creative space.
Included in the offering is the adjoining vacant allotment at 18 O'Leary Street-adding value, flexibility, and future potential (STCC). With a generous 21.99m (approx.) frontage and equally stunning sea views, this second Title opens the door to further development, a separate dwelling, or simply the luxury of space.
This is more than just a home-it's a piece of Victor Harbor's history, an escape from the ordinary, and an exceptional coastal lifestyle opportunity not to be missed.
