Known locally as 'The Store' this character home was the very first General Store in Mount Torrens. Now a beautiful spacious family property this solid stone masterpiece also spent time as a restaurant, which is still evident today with the large living room that was once the restaurant dining room.
Fast approaching 100 years old this well maintained family property has the flexibility to cater for a large family or could easily be reinstated as a restaurant, bakery, café, function centre, art gallery or commercial enterprise. With the recent completion of the Amy Gillett Bike track along with the expansion of the township boundary, a quality hospitality/tourist business in the middle of Mount Torrens would be a welcome addition that would attract ample support.
Located in a very unique and attractive position along the main street of Mount Torrens, the township views add great character to the already appealing property.
Set on 2026m2 (1/2acre) 'The Store' has many semi formal areas dotted around the established garden along with a great outdoor entertainment area that would cater well as an outdoor café for locals, cyclists, tourists or business people looking for a coffee break. And even if the property remained a family home this would be the ultimate outdoor area for entertaining.
In its current format as a family home 'The Store' has been maintained to perfection. Inside the original component of the property there are four symmetrical rooms each with functional fireplaces and the flexibility to be bedrooms, retail space or private accommodation for business owners or b&b guests. The recently renovated bathroom has a colorful splash back that creates a very fresh look and feel.
The kitchen blends modern appliances with traditional architecture and includes open space to accommodate a large dinning table but could easily cater for the hospitality industry if required. Centrally located the tiled kitchen adjoins the large living room that was added to the property and built in keeping with 'The Store's' original design, this room once catered for patrons enjoying the cuisine of the former restaurant and is well presented with beautiful timber floorboards, high ceilings, combustion heater, ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning and a large wooden door entrance that would easily cater for wheel chair access.
'The Store' presents a multitude of entrepreneurial opportunities in a market that is ripe for the taking or could simply be maintained in its current format as possibly the best family home currently on the market in the Mount Torrens township.
