This is a lovely early 1900s stone cottage style house, full of character and space, set upon a large corner block of half an acre
The location: In the heart of Cambrai, a small township located on the eastern side of the Mount Lofty Ranges and along the River Marne
The house:
Inside this charming old home, you will find traditional large rooms, high ceilings and original features. A rear extension has been added in the same style affording more living space
You are greeted by a lovely stone front verandah, complete with trellis allowing privacy while you relax. The front door leads to a central hallway with a large living room to one side and main bedroom to the other, both with gorgeous polished timber floors
You then have another large carpeted bedroom, again with a high ceiling and sash windows. These three rooms could be any combination of bedrooms and/or living space
The large kitchen currently also has dining and living space, and although it does need some updating, it has plenty of potential with so much space. This then leads to the rear of the home where an extension has been added, allowing a lovely cosy sunroom, a small storage room, the laundry, separate wc and a tiled family bathroom with shower, bath and vanity
The Land:
Approximately 2,087m2 of land with the house, sheds and garden nicely set out on this corner block, allowing access to all sides. The front verandah looks out onto a grassy garden and has lovely countryside views opposite
There is a corner gate to the large circular driveway allowing plenty of easy access to the rear of the home. Trees line the rear boundary and there are plenty of formal rocky borders, fruit trees, flowers and plants to all sides of the home. The property is fully fenced and has a front gate and side gate too
Sheds/garages: There is a single garage to the rear for a car, with a decent sized tool shed allowing plenty of storage space
There is the added bonus of a large living room/shed behind the garage, which could be an ideal teenager’s retreat or a lovely little spot for some peace and quiet! This comes complete with power and also has a small seating area to the front
The gardens are a delight with many nooks and crannies and would suit anyone with green fingers as well as having space for the kids to explore and play
Utilities: The home has mains power and an electric hot water system. Gas is provided by bottle for the kitchen cooker. Septic tank. Television antenna and satellite dish
Rainwater tanks (over 18,000 litres capacity) provide ample water to the home and there is a solar system fitted too meaning low power bills!
This really is a lovely traditional cottage style home, with spacious rooms and high ceilings, and all set upon a large corner block. The property could do with a bit of updating but what a great project to invest in!
3 really good-sized rooms, a spacious kitchen, sunroom and plenty of outdoor garden space including a ‘weekender’ shed, set in the peaceful town of Cambrai make this a terrific opportunity
