Located within a short stroll to historic Port Noarlunga’s cafes, river and beach, this charming historic stable transformation into a practical 3 bedroom home with detached studio will send you on a sentimental journey as soon as you enter.

Read along here to enjoy this nostalgic trip, or see below for brief property details.

Starting out as a sandstone horse stable in 1920, then converted to a fisherman’s cottage for many years, the current owners of just over 10 years have taken great pride, hard work, attention to detail, engaged the best builders and tradesmen, and used the best quality materials to fully renovate and extend this humble cottage into this enchanting and romantic cottage, with all the comfort and convenience of modern day living.

Enter through the front gate, into the easy care landscaped courtyard allotment of approximately 351m2, past the double carport into the gabled entertainment area, paved with old red bricks, where the fabulous handcrafted outdoor pizza oven complete with vintage cast iron baker’s oven door takes centre stage. Your private entertaining area is surrounded by sandstone and limestone walling and cliffs at the rear, the detached studio complete with second bathroom and laundry on one side and your new home on the other.

This remarkable home is loaded with old world charm, starting with the Baltic pine doors, slate, Baltic pine and Oregon flooring, textured walls, unique jarrah and Oregon doorways, leadlight French doors and arched windows, and exposed jarrah ceiling beams.

The front door enters into the dining room, which looks out to a small rear courtyard with fern garden, has entry to the first bedroom, and looks into the chef’s own two pack painted kitchen with endearing double butler china sink imported from England, and heritage Victorian style tap mixer, all set into the glowing Blackwood bench tops. The sparkling 900mm Glen gas cook top and oven, stainless steel range hood, extra large fridge space and central island bench are all practical features.

The lounge room is adjacent to the kitchen, again character laden with exposed beams, textured walls and quaint handcrafted Baltic pine bi-fold doors, which lead to the stair foyer, a study nook, the second bedroom/sitting room, and the heritage style bathroom which could be gracing the covers of any respected home style magazine. Special because it has feature tiles, re-enamelled vintage full length claw foot bath, ceramic freestanding hand basin, and all connected with the best quality heritage style plumbing fittings, including the luxurious shower rose.

Upstairs, with a feature leadlight panel to admire on the way, takes you to the large private master bedroom, with views over the Onkaparinga river. The aforementioned detached studio complete bathroom and laundry make this magnificent property a versatile proposition.

Quality decor throughout includes hanging pendant lighting and beautifully coordinated window treatments. Additional features include ceiling fans to all bedrooms, split system reverse cycle air conditioning systems, new roofing, all modern wiring and plumbing, all beautifully presented for your consideration.
