This gorgeous cottage is a must to inspect...
This property is 'Heritage off Hutt' - James Bond Style! Yes - James Bond was the original owner, and also played his part in law enforcement - so the title deeds say! Going back to the early 1890's when this beautiful charm-filled single-fronted cottage took shape, James was her first owner. Was it the legend? The lifestyle fits, at just metres from the stained glass-windowed front door to the cosmopolitan, refined and racy, yet village-like, cultured and quaint city-edge precinct of much-admired Hutt Street.
Providing a functional, modern and astute use of inner-city proportions, a light-filled clever-in-its-capacity extension was added some 12 years ago to bring the once James Bond haven into the 21st century. Through the front gate, take a step onto planks from the original Goolwa Jetty. A wide timber hallway, lofty ceilings and tall full-glass French doors adorn the open plan living, dining and kitchen area ensuring a spacious, floaty domain for modern living blending the old and new into a seamless flow of space and grace.
Smart architectural considerations incorporate a butler's pantry, sunny skylights and walls of storage providing a place and space that is slick yet sassy with artisan feature tiles and contemporary exposed concrete floors. 2 spacious bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (the main as an en suite) provides modern convenience and everyday comfort. Again, loads of storage are a bonus feature to these original rooms as well as the living area.
Fully detached for true Torrens Title individuality, the expansive feel on this heritage-rich quiet leafy street is enhanced with a side lane providing access to the rear. A secure auto garage door to the carport adds the option of lock-up and leave, and also doubles as a timber-featured, weather-protected alfresco patio for those relaxed unwinding moments. Shaken not stirred! Having resided in this highly sought-after corner of the city, the current owner of some 40 years at this ideal address, has reflected on the many fun-filled times.
The friends, family, characters and acquaintances who have flowed through the wide hallway to the entertainment area, enjoying the vibe and charisma of this much-loved cottage and location are treasured and vivid memories. Recognising, that now, it is time for a new chapter leaving a blank canvass for a sequel and a new leading character to claim this charming haven, wrapped by a lifestyle of choice and chance. Is that character you? This superb cottage perfectly balances period charm with contemporary comfort.
Ideally positioned moments from Hutt Street's iconic pubs, restaurants, vibrant cafes, East and South parklands and the CBD. McLaren Street remains highly prized and sought-after for its rare combination of historic beauty and inner-city convenience. Little wonder it is so tightly-held. Come, view, best offer will buy...
