Ray White Mt Gambier are pleased to offer 41 Doughty Street and the rear allotment at 1/41 Doughty Street for sale. The property sits within a convenient, family-friendly residential area within walking distance of Mount Gambiers CBD. Other nearby amenities include parks, the Mount Gambier District Hospital, childcare centres and St Martins Lutheran College.
Access to the original 1900s limestone cottage is via a neat and spacious, grassed front garden. The home has been completely gutted with the exception of stunning original features like the dark timber floorboards and two fireplaces - one of which retains the original surround.
The rear allotment features two sheds to either side, perfect for access from a long driveway on the left side. Perimeter fencing encloses both lots, so purchasing them together would offer lots of outdoor entertaining space, shedding, and room for extending the home.
The front of this stunning cottage is in immaculate condition. If features a typical period limestone brickwork facet with detailed awnings and a pitched roof. A second roofline covers an attractive, solid verandah. It wraps around the right side of the home, creating a side entry that would lead into a kitchen/dining space or loungeroom.
Inside the cottage are three large bedrooms, any of which could be converted into a lounge room. The front-facing rooms offer fireplaces, and the room to the right of the entry hall accesses the kitchen and dining space. Transform this space into a stunning family living area or grand country kitchen, depending on the design of the renovation plans. This room has French doors that open onto the side verandah, creating a lovely, sunny alfresco dining or relaxation area.
The bedroom immediately to the left of the stunning entry hall offers dual front-facing windows and access to a proposed large walk-in robe space and a bathroom space - perfect for the master suite with an ensuite bathroom or access to the main bathroom.
The room at the far left of the house could be a bedroom, main bathroom or a kitchen, and with a central door at the back, there is plenty of space to continue the character of the home with a brand new extension, creating a dream kitchen, bathroom, laundry or luxury living area.
The opportunity to purchase each lot separately gives an investor the chance to build a second rental accommodation unit behind the existing building. Ideally, purchase both the home and rear allotment to make the most of the space. Transform this idyllic cottage into a stunning family home with the benefit of its original history and character, updated with modern design, constructions and installations. With lots of knowledgeable and professional builders and suppliers in the area, you're spoiled for choice.
This property will appeal to a couple or single with dreams of completely renovating their first property or for experienced renovators to add to an existing portfolio. The potential is as exciting as it is limitless. Build your dream forever home or renovate to rent.
