A sturdy, well built large 4 double bedroom old bluestone home with 2 extensions, in the historic town of Kapunda, 70km from Adelaide. It's perfect for a multi-generational family, or as an investment or home for a group of younger people willing to share and finally get their feet on the housing ladder, at an affordable price each.
The original house was built as part of a larger collection of buildings that encompassed what is now 4 separate titled house blocks. This house at 15 Brown St was on 1092msq (approx) but now sits on a 588msq (approx) block with multiple outdoor spaces and adjoins the vacant 504msq (approx) block at 22 Hill St at the rear which was subdivided in 2024. (Separate title, not included with 15 Brown St, but also available for Expressions of Interest).
The original stone home was 5 rooms, comprising 2 bedrooms, kitchen and side entry, lounge and dining room with fireplaces, central hallway, 11' ceilings, approx 100 - 140 years old. Construction date is unknown.
A huge dry, bluestone and red brick underground rainwater tank. Once it was located, it was inspected and certified safe by a structural engineer - report available.
Since then, a huge bluestone ground floor extension was added some time ago onto the original structure .
Around 50 years ago, a second floor weatherboard extension was added upstairs over the second extension.
Current house layout is :
The original ground floor is now 2 very large double bedrooms, each with a fireplace (blocked off) carpet, integrated fan and light, tv connection and digital locks on the doors.
A long central hallway with glass panelled front door and hallway door plus security doors front and back
The two original bedrooms were combined to make the very large lounge room with functional wood heater and the exposed original bluestone wall and double glass panel doors.
Large bathroom with shower, toilet, vanity basin and separate dressing table
The second stone extension contains the staircase to the upper floor, a large built in pantry, a built in cleaning cupboard, large kitchen and dining area, under stair storage perfect for an office set up or extensive wine rack, and a very large combined laundry and toilet.
The second floor weatherboard extension now holds 2 large double bedrooms with air conditioners, digital door locks and tv connections plus a large hallway cupboard
There is a smaller bathroom comprising toilet and shower.
There are 4 roof ventilators (spinney's) (2 on the main body of the house, 1 on the upstairs extension and 1 on the shed.
A separate 6m x 9m rumpus room/garage (for 2 cars) is divided into two internal sections. airconditioning, shelving, large windows, sliding glass door with security door, downlights and integrated light and fan.
A multi-functional roofed pergola/patio with clothes lines, wood storage and roller mesh blinds connect to the shed/rumpus room
Off road parking for 5 cars
Approx 588sqm corner block
Septic tank in the driveway, emptied by Council every 4 years as part of the rates.
There is no dividing fence from the subdivision of the new vacant block at 22 Hill St
Since the current owner purchased in 2021, the house has been renovated to a high standard. The original lathe and plaster ceiling has been replaced with new plaster board, ceilings, cornices, new wiring, lights and insulation in the original part of the house. Installed air conditioners in 3 bedrooms, tv connections in all 4 bedrooms, painting throughout the whole house, integrated fan and light in 3 rooms and shed/rumpus room, digital security locks on each bedroom door, security doors on front and rear of house plus shed/rumpus room, under sink electric water heater in the kitchen, 4 roof spinney's, have located the huge underground rainwater tank and confirmed structurally sound, but I added 5inches surface concrete at ground level for extra peace of mind.
The house is perfectly functional and very well presented, but as usual, there are opportunities for change or improvement.
