Nestled amongst other characteristic homes in a tightly held & sought after section of Willunga, this Circa 1857 home was originally a quarrymen's cottage, but has undergone substantial and impressive alterations since then and is a really special property.
Each property has it's own unique feeling or soul to them, It's sometimes difficult to explain, but you can appreciate the feeling when you are in them. This property is one of those that does feel special. The original symmetrical cottage has been extremely well maintained and forms the lower level of the home. There is a large entrance foyer that has exposed stonework and leads through to the 3 spacious bedrooms, the main with a ceiling fan. The bedrooms on the ground floor are serviced by a conventional bathroom and a large open laundry area.
In 2003 the current owners were granted approval for the upper level addition, and when you make your way up the stairs, I'm sure you'll be impressed with what they have created. The raised ceiling height and natural materials used really add to the character and overall appeal of the space. The combination of spotted gum, Australian oak and blackbutt timber flooring, Western Australian Karri timber built-in cabinetry and the large picture windows that frame the amazing outlook all need to be seen in person to truly appreciate.
The upper level has a lovely open plan, north facing aspect and consists of a spacious lounge area that is overlooked by a well appointed timber kitchen and an adjacent meals or dining area. There is a split system air conditioner and ceiling fans have also been fitted. There is an additional bathroom upstairs that has been updated. This home has been carefully renovated using non-toxic materials and finishes making it a very low allergy and adds to the overall feeling and appeal of this property.
The outlook from the balcony is spectacular. It's framed by wisteria and grape vines that add to it, but this is the ideal place to unwind and watch the sunset and appreciate where you are. From the balcony there is decking that leads back down to the lower level where you'll find front and side patio areas, there is a powered workshop, a hobby/games room and a separate studio/study that would be ideal for a play room for the kids, or a private work space if needed. At the rear there is a double carport and well established gardens that also add to the overall appeal of this property.
Willunga is a special place, it has a lovely community feel to it and this property fits perfectly into the historical characteristics that makes Willunga what it is. Located only a short stroll into the main street, easy access to a number of schooling options, sporting facilities and more.
