Situated on the rural fringe of Beautiful Balhannah in the Adelaide Hills with neighbouring vineyards and acerage, this gorgeous & affordable country hide-away c1890 is a hidden gem. Enchanting gardens of approx. 1669m2 surround this sympathetically extended gloriously private Baltic cottage brimming with olde-worlde charm.
Deceptively spacious, the floor plan is generous yet quirky with ample living and separate sleeping / study areas.
From the moment you enter the magical gardens, step onto the picturesque porch and into the front sitting room complete with high ceilings, feature Baltic walls and combustion wood fire set into the magnificent timber surround original stone fire place and large sash windows framing the view of the beautiful gardens, you feel instantly at home.
Continue through to the heart of the home into a traditional and spacious English country style timber kitchen complete with huge bay windows, window seat for dining and polished timber pine floorboards which sets the scene for cosy family dinners or entertaining friends in a truly welcoming atmosphere.
Uniquely linked, a slate floored family room to the rear of the home again brings the lush gardens indoors through 2 walls of feature picture windows.
Three double sized bedrooms are each so different yet versatile. The 3rd bedroom has a wall of windows and glass paned French doors to a side verandah covered in glory vine and like bedroom 2, is spacious enough to be used as both a bedroom and study.
Fabulous Spring and Summer entertaining in the rear and side gardens will be a delight amid the towering gums, glory vines, blossoms and mix of native and deciduous plantings. The space and versatility of the grounds that currently envelope this delightful abode will appeal to the avid gardener who loves to create beautiful living and outdoor spaces to live in and enjoy.
Separate double undercover garaging with extra room for storage / equipment is tucked away at the rear side of the driveway and an additional undercover carport provides further storage for cars, bikes or a horse float! The current Owner agists her two horses on neighbouring property *(negotiable).
The character features and feel of this home are endless throughout the whole of this wonderful cottage which is equally suitable for a family, couples, or individuals who relish an affordable country hills lifestyle just a short 25 minute commute to the bustle of the CBD. It is also an ideal holiday weekender for those who like to invest and rest.
This unique lifestyle is one many dream about but never achieve! Make this home become your enviable and affordable dream!
