40 MacDonnell Terrace, Springton SA 5235

Delightful three bedroom home with panoramic views over the sweeping rural countryside, located on a side road on the edge of Springton.
LAND: 1,010m2 Corner property located on the edge of the township of Springton. Opposite the property is rolling farm land to the horizon. The block is gently rising with a low stone retaining wall dividing the block into two levels with the garage/shed on the upper level. The gardens are low maintenance comprising a range of native and exotic shrubs and trees. Due to the placement of shrubs and trees along the roadside boundary, the property has a good sense of privacy. On the upper level, beyond the clothesline, is a small home fruit orchard. An old, unused, inground tank provides a feature for the gravel driveway leading to the garage/shed.
RESIDENCE: A cute, three bedroom, split level, Hardie sheet clad home. The front entry is via a raised decked verandah which leads to the lounge. The home has a light and airy feel as a result of the use of raked ceilings throughout. The lounge is carpeted and is well served by a combustion heater (installed 2016) for warmth on those cool days, as well as a split system, reverse cycle, air conditioner and a ceiling fan for year round comfort. Stepping up to the kitchen/casual meals area, the kitchen, with a corner pantry, has a bench top, a four hob gas range and an under bench electric oven. A single stainless steel sink is located in the bench under the kitchen window. Under and above bench cupboards complete the kitchen, which has easy to clean vinyl flooring. The casual meals area, with a ceiling fan, is carpeted and has a glass sliding door to the outside entertaining area. The carpeted hallway leads to the bedrooms, passing the bathroom, separate toilet and laundry. The bathroom has a shower alcove and vanity. The largest bedroom, which is on the upper level, has an alcove which would be a good location for a built- in robe. Bedrooms two and three are located on the lower level, with bedroom two having a ceiling light/fan. All three bedrooms are carpeted. At the rear of the home is a good sized, brick paved verandah - great for entertaining as it has a glory vine growing along the fence side as a feature. Hot water for the home is supplied by an instant gas water heater.
IMPROVEMENTS: A gravelled, curved driveway leads to the single car garage/shed. This building of timber and corrugated iron with a gravel floor and an attached, open sided section, is over a hundred years old. Many years ago, when the land was part of a farm, the open sided section with flag stone flooring had been used as a dairy. The old, disused, brick in ground tank, next to the driveway, provides a novel feature. A clothes hoist is located between the home and the garage/shed.

Springton, with its General Store/Post Office and Primary School is only 50 minutes to the Tea Tree Plaza shopping complex and 35 minutes to Gawler and the township of Springton is now serviced by wireless NBN internet.
