19 Kirkham Road, Ashbourne SA 5157

Rose Cottage was built circa 1880 and now stands on a large 2,350 sqm block. It has a colourful history, originally a post office and gathering place for the good residents of Ashbourne and later a staging station enroute for the great outback. The early post boxes are still in place with the names of the first families etched into the timber.

The cottage is absolutely stunning, lovingly restored by the owners, with original polished timber floors, recently repainted, a pristine refurbished bathroom with claw foot bath & separate shower. This picturesque stone home boasts 3 bedrooms, a front parlor, a formal lounge both with combustion heaters, dining room, study, country kitchen with a dishwasher and electric and wood stoves, ceiling fans and a split system air conditioner, and shedding plus approx 45,000 litres (10,000 gallons)of rainwater. Solar panels provide 5Kw's of power which returns energy to the grid and economy to the owner.

There are fruit trees and shady places to rest and contemplate the serenity, a very well kept cottage garden with room for veggies, surrounded by cool green lawns.

A wonderful place to live or alternatively with necessary approvals as a Bed & Breakfast.

Kirkham Road is located opposite the Greenman Inn at the centre of Ashbourne at the rural edge of town but close to Meadows and within 45 minutes of Adelaide.

Rose Cottage is the last residence before the rolling rural land begins with Bull Creek meandering past. It is a serene place and why wouldnt you want to live there and enjoy the reminders of the past but live in the comfort of today. What a life!
