Rich in history and beautifully updated, this symmetrical circa 1875 stone cottage presents a rare opportunity to secure a home in one of Gawler's most tightly held and historically significant streets.
Positioned within the original township on Cameron Street, just off Cowan Street, the home seamlessly blends period charm with modern comfort, offering approximately 142 sqm (approx.) of internal living space and 227sqm with external set on a generous 539 sqm allotment.
From the moment you step inside, the long central hallway showcases polished timber floorboards, soaring ceilings, and the timeless elegance of a bygone era. The original stone facade remains intact, setting the tone for the warmth and character that flows throughout the home.
The clever floorplan effortlessly connects the original cottage to the modern rear extension, creating a beautiful fusion of old and new. The extension provides a spacious family living and dining area, while the original rooms offer outstanding flexibility easily reconfigured back into formal lounge and dining spaces or kept as a 4th bedroom, depending on your needs.
Accommodation comprises four spacious bedrooms, three of which feature ornamental fireplaces. A well-maintained cellar, accessed from the kitchen, adds both charm and functionality, making it a perfect space for a wine collection, a music/games room, or a quiet retreat. Naturally climate-controlled and ideal for year-round enjoyment.
To the rear, the thoughtfully designed extension brings the home effortlessly into the modern age, incorporating a light-filled kitchen, dining, and family living space. The kitchen has been refreshed with new appliances, and the home has been freshly painted with new blinds and curtains throughout. The gutters and roof have been upgraded, delivering a truly move-in-ready offering.
The bathroom and laundry are well-appointed. Outdoors, you'll find manageable garden spaces, an undercover entertaining area, and a garden shed, keeping the garden and property ideal for low-maintenance living without compromising on outdoor enjoyment.
Positioned alongside the former Lutheran St George tennis courts, now transformed into high-quality new residences, the surrounding homes complement the historic charm and prestige of this tightly held precinct.
