Rowley Cottage - circa 1856
Stroll through the picket gate and up to the front door of this charming ironstone cottage, amid a riot of colourful cottage flowers, and you're transported into another world. Built around 1856, Rowley Cottage is classic and timeless - full of character, with its polished timber floors.
Walking into the spacious front lounge room, a pot belly stove sits in the original open fireplace - and the addition of a split system ensures your comfort all year round.
The original open fireplaces are a feature of this home - along with the gorgeous timber floors, high timber-clad ceilings, and adorable verandahs.
The large kitchen is a stunning mix of old and new, with a stainless-steel electric oven, cooktop and dishwasher, complemented by a fabulous cast iron wood heater/stove/oven. Polished timber benchtops complete your country kitchen.
The kitchen flows through to a versatile slate-floor sitting room, adjacent to the large bathroom, with claw foot bath, shower, and vintage-style floor tiles.
At the front of the cottage, off the lounge area is the main bedroom - with a second bedroom or formal dining room, adjacent to the kitchen.
A few steps from the main residence is an adorable single room Cottage - also dating back to around 1857. It's the perfect place for your own artist studio, office, or private guest retreat.
Both the main home and cottage are nestled amongst well-established gardens, brimming with glorious cottage plants - including classic old world roses.
There's plenty of room for tools and toys, with a large, powered shed plus additional garden sheds.
Ample rainwater and your very own well will keep the gardens looking beautiful all year round.
Located on the outskirts of Myponga, the 1144 sqm block is fenced and well maintained - close to everything the stunning Fleurieu Peninsula has to offer, and just an hour from Adelaide.
If you've always dreamt of owning a beautiful country cottage, then don't miss this amazing opportunity.
