This beautiful stone home is a reluctant sale, with the owner moving interstate. Either side of the wide entrance are two double bedrooms, each with working fireplaces. Central to the home is the good size lounge with a large open fire place which does a fantastic job, with some creative touches and lovely paintwork.
The large country kitchen has a cost open fire and is flanked with cupboards on either side.
There is a combined bathroom/laundry and a sun room which would make an ideal 3rd bedroom or home office complete with a wood heater, or just the perfect place to curl up on a winter’s day with a good book and a glass of the Clare Valley’s finest.
The home has many additional features, including quality floorboards throughout, gas bayonet fittings in each room, walk in linen closet, separate phone room off the hallway, reverse cycle air conditioning, ceiling fans, original pressed tin ceilings, sash windows, covered rear verandah with a slate floor, and a lovingly tended garden with a shade house and seating area, and you are not hemmed in by solid fences and urban sprawl but rather looking out over farm land and a wide open sky.
Manoora is a little country town on the edge of the Clare Valley. There is a wonderful primary school full of caring people, a friendly hotel, and a roadhouse. It is just 10 minutes to Saddleworth or Auburn, both of which have an IGA supermarket, and Riverton is the regional centre, and there is a high school bus service. Approx. 20 kms from either Riverton or Clare, you have plenty of options for shopping, medical, hospital, chemist, and many specialty shops. Proud of its history and full of community spirit, there are local football, netball and social clubs.
At this price, you have the perfect escape from the rat race without incurring great debt, a truly wonderful region to raise your children, and from first hand experience I can tell you that is true, access to good shopping within 30 mins, and still only an hour back to the Adelaide metropolitan area.
So whether you’re starting out, slowing down, or just want a little quiet time, why not come for a look?
