Overview

This historic stone-clad homestead is nestled on a combined landholding of approximately 2,927 square meters, composed of two adjoining titles in the quaint township of Mount Torrens. The property's well-preserved formal lounge and dining areas showcase original 19th-century features such as high ceilings, timber architraves, and rustic fireplaces, providing a charming glimpse into a simpler era.

The home awaits thoughtful renovation, particularly in the kitchen, bathroom, and cellar which hold significant potential to be revitalized for modern living. An outdoor toilet remains as a poignant reminder of the property's heritage.

Beyond the main residence, the adjoining vacant land offers compelling possibilities; with a historic 1860s shed positioned on the boundary, historically used for an array of purposes including as a village lock-up, this section is a near-blank canvas. It allows scope to build additional dwellings, such as a multigenerational residence, or create functional shedding ideal for tradespeople or enthusiasts, providing flexibility for lifestyle enhancement or potential development, subject to council approval.

Mount Torrens' rural charm — close to Woodside, Birdwood, and Lobethal — complements the property’s appeal, surrounded by rolling landscapes, vineyards, cellar doors, and country pubs. This dual-title offering is well-suited to those who value historic character and a sizeable land parcel for various lifestyle opportunities, making it especially attractive for renovators, lifestyle buyers, or those seeking a country retreat with rich story and future potential.
