It's an absolute pleasure to introduce 'Hawthorne', a truly special property that offers massive potential, an amazing lifestyle opportunity and so much more...
Located in the heart of the beautiful and historic township of Willunga, within a short stroll to local cafes, fantastic weekend markets, great Schooling options, it's only a short drive to some of the states best beaches and famous McLaren Vale wineries. The Circa 1870 (approx) stone fronted, return verandah homestead oozes all the character of a bygone era. It has been tastefully updated and extremely well maintained and when combined with the beautifully established gardens and surrounds makes this property something really special.
The large return verandah wraps around the front and side of the home and together with the stone facade makes an impressive first impression. The large entry hall gives access to the stunning formal lounge room that comes complete with a slow combustion fire place. There are two bedroom suites positioned at the front of the home, one offering a bedroom with an open fire place, and adjacent kitchenette and meals area with private french door access from the front verandah and a large ensuite complete with spa bath. The other suite consists of another large bedroom that also offers private french door access from the side verandah and has a lovely outlook of the front gardens. There is an adjacent dressing room that could also convert or be used as a small sitting area or study and another private ensuite bathroom. These suites could be perfect for a bed & breakfast option (subject to necessary consents) and take advantage of the growing popularity of this wonderful part of the world.
As you move down the entrance hall you'll come to bedroom 4 which is where there is access to the cellar. The country style kitchen and meals is very neat and comes with the original wood stove plus a modern stainless steel oven, a dishwasher, dual sinks with water filter tap and a gas cook top. As you flow through to the rear of the home you'll come to a spacious formal dining area, another large (3rd) bedroom that is serviced by the main bathroom that has an iconic claw bath tub. The family room is located at the rear of the home and has a slow combustion heater fitted. This space connects seamlessly via french doors to a large and extremely private outdoor entertaining area. There is also a separate hobby room and external laundry not far from the rear of the home.
Some of the additional benefits include the characteristic 3m ceilings, decorative cornice and ceiling roses that come with properties of this era, large slate flooring, a number of air conditioners that together with the slow combustion heaters and fire places will ensure that you, your family and guests will stay comfortable all the year round.
This property boasts dual access off of a private street at the rear. It offers approximately 1,850m2 of land and two separate titles that is not only rare but makes this a unique and extremely attractive opportunity to develop if desired, again subject to the necessary approvals. The gardens and surrounds have been very well established and created to have an easy care appeal. There is direct access into a large high clearance triple carport and a large 7.6m x 6m (approx) powered garage/workshop, and old stone storage shed, plus a wood shed and another garden/tool shed so storage shouldn't be an issue. There is a large chook pen and a cute 'Aussie' hut that has fitted cafe blinds and a wood fire that is a great place to simply relax and enjoy where you are. There is a large native area of the garden with a fire pit, there are a number of fruit trees and lovely lawn areas. The whole property is fenced and is extremely private.
This property is something really special and an extremely rare opportunity to secure a charming and characteristic home, with passive income potential, on a large parcel of land offering two separate titles in a fantastic location.
