Steeped in heritage charm yet flourishing with modern comfort, 36 Railway Terrace stands as a striking c.1900 homestead reimagined for contemporary country living. Behind its classic stone façade, arched windows and soaring ceilings - a subtle nod to its former religious roots - this Black Rock beauty blends bold character with thoughtful renovation, creating a residence as unique as its wide-open surrounds.
Inside the main dwelling, completely renovated interiors reveal sun-splashed open-plan living spaces, central dining zone and a spacious kitchen anchored by a wide island bench and stainless appliances. Designed as a true social hub, it flows effortlessly into a relaxing sunroom where a crackling combustion heater warms winter nights, while wide glass sliders open to sweeping, gum-studded grounds - delivering comfort and connection in every season.
Accommodation includes two bedrooms, a private ensuite and a sparkling main bathroom featuring a clawfoot bath and separate shower, complemented by a bill-busting solar system for modern efficiency. Water needs are effortlessly managed with a bore, rainwater tanks, and an automatic pump system, giving peace of mind and sustainability in equal measure. But the versatility extends further still: a detached dwelling with adjoining shed and storage rooms unlocks additional living or creative potential, while a separate bedroom or office with its own bathroom/laundry sits alongside a generous garage. Wrapped in sunbathed lawns, timber bench seating encircling a stone firepit, and an elevated deck set the scene for long lunches, balmy barbecues and star-filled evenings, instantly bringing the beauty and appeal of country living to life.
Originally reimagined to offer flexible accommodation options, the property has been thoughtfully configured with multiple self-contained zones that provide privacy and adaptability. Its heritage character, peaceful regional setting and versatile detached dwellings create scope for a range of living arrangements, which may include guest accommodation or short-term stays, subject to necessary consents. Equally suited as a spacious private residence, 36 Railway Terrace offers buyers the opportunity to enjoy its charm and flexibility while tailoring its use to their individual lifestyle requirements (subject to council consent).
Positioned in a quiet township that connects seamlessly to major regional centres including Port Pirie, Port Augusta and Broken Hill, along with Peterborough, Orroroo and Jamestown minutes away, Black Rock captures the charm of true Australiana. Endless horizons, rolling plains and a slower rhythm define the setting, making this an idyllic base for regional workers, FIFO lifestyles or those seeking a semi off-grid escape without sacrificing comfort or character.
