$710,000
3bed - 2 Bath - 1 study - Original Hall - Open kitchen/lounge
Originally begun its life in 1903, as the South Purrumbete Dairy factory. Then converted in the late 1950's into a public hall. In 2010, the derelict property was purchased, by us, and has been beautifully converted over the years into a 3 bed, 1 study, 2 bath, open kitchen/lounge home, paying ode to the history and character of the property.
Reuse: Recycle: & Repurpose: has been our motto, so the building retains much of its original character. The old blends seamlessly with the new, through the use of industrial materials such as steel, raw timber and stone. This highlights the fantastic original craftsmanship front and centre of its current architecture.
With the hard work done there is still plenty to do to put your stamp on the next chapter of this property, as the uncomplete project requires your input into stairs, floors and ceilings. The bonus for you is many of the materials required are sitting here ready to go.
What you get here is magnitude! Set upon half an acre, you get a massive 382sqm of internal living space. Known for its 6m glass block window, the entry provides a grand sense of theatre and a nod to its dairying past.
The original hall, located centrally, is full of opportunity. The sheer size- at 19.5m x 9m, you could fit a modern 3-bedroom house inside of it. Exposed beams above and wiring hung ready for use for fans or additional lights. The lining boards for the celling, sourced from a derelict pub, are ready and waiting.
The old green room, converted into the current study or 4th bed, features direct access to outside, hand laid parquetry flooring and has a wood heater which additionally heats upstairs into the 3rd bedroom.
The kitchen/lounge features 11.5' ceilings, an electric 900mm Ilve oven- a cook's dream, original 1903 concrete flooring flows the entire open kitchen/lounge space. While the kitchen cabinetry needs some work, the recycled redgum bench top is a standout. Featuring inlays of trinkets found around the property while renovating. Again, featuring a wood heater, that heats upstairs into the master bed and bed 2.
The master bedroom provides beautiful views from all windows. It features an original truss- from when the building was single story, and so much space. It connects with bedroom 2 through a jack and jill ensuite, which features a walk-in shower and rain head. All wet areas in the home feature flooring of natural stone tiles or slate tiles.
Outside you will find a 10m x 9m shed, with additional carport attached. A 110,000ltr underground water tank and additional 2000ltr water tank. The property is connected to both mains power and a 5kw solar system. With additional infrastructure available, you can connect a generator as back up power supply, able to service the kitchen area and hot water should you need to. The hot water is a gas boosted solar system.
You will also find established gardens, a chicken run and many fruit trees including apple, pear, cherry, almond, olive, citrus trees and stone fruit.
The property is located 15mins from Camperdown and 10mins from Cobden and is serviced by the school bus route right on the doorstep.
This property features modern amenities, and vast living spaces combine with charm, quirk and character, but now it's your turn to become a part of its history.
