Overview

Charming Piece of Goolwa's History

Positioned in the very heart of Goolwa's original township, this delightful character cottage stands as a cherished piece of local history, lovingly maintained and enjoyed by its current custodians for the past 45 years. Affectionately known as Thomas Dowland's Cottage, the home was built circa 1860 and remains a wonderful example of heritage craftsmanship blended with thoughtful modern updates. Positioned on a generous double allotment of approx. 595m², this is a truly special property offering charm, space and location. Step through the front door into the original four room cottage, where high ceilings, polished timber floors and original fireplaces set the tone. The inviting lounge features an open fireplace, while the adjoining dining room enjoys a cosy combustion heater, perfect for cool winter evenings. A major renovation and extension by the current owners seamlessly integrates modern comfort while retaining the home's heritage soul. The updated section includes a spacious kitchen and meals area, study nook, main bathroom and a private primary suite complete with built-in robes, ensuite and even a handy kitchenette. Outside, discover the detached studio / library / rumpus room - a generous, versatile space ideal as an art studio, games room, creative workshop or even guest accommodation. The paved patio area offers a peaceful spot for your morning coffee, surrounded by beautifully manicured gardens. Wander a little further to find the enchanting "Summerhouse", a secluded hideaway perfect for reading, writing, or quiet reflection. Additional features include: • Secure single carport with auto roller door • Handy garden shed • Established gardens with an abundance of charm • Solar system and rainwater tank in place All of this is positioned in a prime, walk-to-everything location, just moments from Main Street, local dining, shops, Goolwa Bowling Club and Goolwa Wharf precinct.
