20 Maria Street, Tanunda, SA 5352

A rare find, this unique, tastefully renovated, solid brick & render residence situated on a generously sized block in the heart of Tanunda’s historic quarter amidst character homes and with all the services of the Tanunda township just one street away.

This very appealing home is just perfect if you’re looking to downsize to a quality but very manageable property. Equally, it will suit lovers of Barossa-style village life and would make a perfect Bed & Breakfast in South Australia’s famed wine region of historic German heritage.

The home is built in a traditional, cottage-style lay-out featuring a wide central hallway with original wall cabinet, two spacious bedrooms with original sash windows and quality fittings, and a beautifully appointed lounge with built-in combustion heater on the opposite side of the hallway.

The current owner has completed extensive renovations over the past year including a beautiful handmade country kitchen with double butlers sink and large Tasmanian oak benchtop, installed by a local artisan kitchen/cabinet maker, freestanding wood heater in the original fireplace, and generous walk-in pantry plus ample room for a central kitchen table to enjoy a lovely home cooked dinner. All modern appliances are Australian-made, brushed stainless steel and tastefully installed to blend in with the cottage style decor.

An adjoining, bright & cheerful breakfast room / study has been fully renovated in style, introducing a beautifully designed, brand new bathroom, featuring a Japanese style bath and large glass walk-in shower. Colour-matched wall and floor tiles complement the luxury designed vanity with marble top and granite round basin. The laundry has a traditional double sink and there is a convenient second toilet off the laundry.

This property impresses throughout with lofty ceilings, beautiful pristine New Zealand pine floorboards, sash windows, original woodwork from a bygone era, and quality window treatments and light fittings. Adding to the comfort of this cute Tanunda home there is a ducted evaporative cooling system.

The property has recently been painted both inside and outside, with new door furniture installed.

At the rear, a red brick patio with newly built pergola and recently planted grapevines awaits the new owner to finish and enjoy a lovely shaded verandah in summers to come.
20 Maria Street is on a corner location of more than 700sqm with convenient rear access to park a caravan, trailer and additional vehicles, with the option of rebuilding the driveway to the front. The original single garage with power and light is still in use, with room for further shedding at front.

Facing town, the front patio overlooks a delightful cottage style garden. With established fruit trees and newly planted greenery at the rear, there is plenty of scope for your own creative garden ideas.

A short walk to the pub, window shopping on the weekend, a leisurely coffee on the terrace with the morning paper- this delightful home offers ease of lifestyle for young & for old with all the township amenities from Tanunda Lutheran School to the local hospital & medical rooms, only a stone’s throw away. Life will be sweet & easy, here on Maria Street, in historic Tanunda.
