Located in the agriculturally rich community of Curramulka this property is certainly a unique offering and a rare opportunity for purchasers to secure a slice of local history and a property with endless potential.
After servicing the community as the hospital from opening in circa 1927 until its final year in operation in 1964 the property has been used as a residence basically ever since and has been held by the same family since 1968.
The sheer size of this property needs to be seen to be believed starting with the 3,320m2 (approx.) block and then onto the 316m2 (approx.) of internal room space not to mention the huge verandas and separate 3 room 'retreat' or rumpus room.
Bringing new meaning to the term 'flexible floor plan' the property has 11 large separate rooms, with fire places in 6 of them as well as kitchen with walk-in pantry, 2 bathrooms and laundry giving you almost endless options as to how you configure the house into bedrooms and living rooms. With huge hallways and doorways, high ceilings and solid stone construction you'll certainly never feel crammed for space. Given the age of the property it's in excellent condition, having been built a considerable height up off of ground the underfloor is extremely well ventilated which undoubtedly contributes to the condition of the structure. The beautiful jarrah floor boards throughout would no doubt become a highlight of the property particularly in the huge hallway.
The yard currently consists of many fruit and almond trees as well as other bushes and shrubs and would again be a very flexible space with 3 different street accesses, a buyer could look to add almost anything or simply incorporate some lawn and shedding (STCC) still leaving them with plenty of room for any other ideas.
Like almost every house the property is in need of some TLC and updating but as mentioned given its condition for its age and its sheer size it's a property certainly worthy of your inspection. Where else can you buy a property of this size?
Curramulka is located approximately 2 hours drive from Adelaide and provides a very friendly community atmosphere with basic amenities in the form of the local hotel, general store, rural agencies/supplies, primary school and sporting facilities.
