After many years as an Art Gallery this extensive and historic property of 2626 sqm is for sale; the well-known Artist owners are ready to move on to new horizons and seek offers from the market.
The Gallery dates back to the late 1800`s (no heritage order applies) when it was a stable for the workhorses drawing loads from the Normanville Wharf to the Mill that once existed on Jetty Road. The stone building has been sensitively restored, has an R/C A/C split system and is currently a space for quality art display. It has car parking for more than 3 cars.
The Home is a freestanding, tastefully decorated 1970`s solid brick dwelling with 2 bedrooms, a two way renovated and expanded bathroom, laundry nook and a surprising kitchen which has been fitted with the best of appliances. It forms part of the open plan dining and lounge, the focal point of which is a country style open fire place that adds atmosphere to an already lovely, light filled room with large windows and raked ceilings. There is also an R/C A/C split system.
The Guest Cottage (currently used as a jewellers workshop) also dates back to the late 1800`s and has been renovated. With its own shower and toilet it could make excellent self-contained accommodation.
The Studio, a converted double garage, plus separate store room, is fully lined and insulated and has large windows and skylights with R/C A/C split system. A perfect place for an artist or handy man!
The 4 dwellings sit on 2 Lots totalling approximately 2626sqm with 2 stone walled courtyards, 2 water features with frogs and tadpoles and a non- manicured garden/ park with lots of established trees, fruit trees, shrubs and flowers. The owners recorded nearly 40 different bird species over the years.
The outlook from the dining/ lounge area onto the stone walled courtyard is a reminder of the history of this place; beyond that are permanent views across the nature reserve to the Bungala River and the pastures and hills with captivating changes in light and shadow.
13 Heathcote Street is a quiet little oasis in down town Normanville just a 5 minute walk to the beach or a 5 minute walk to the township with its shops, cafes and supermarket. Where else do you get that!
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a unique property and it offers the new owners a wide range of alternate uses, with the potential for B&B, perhaps a continuing outlet for arts and crafts, a holiday retreat with space or just a safe haven for a family.
