Outstanding restoration or development opportunity!

Take a step back in time for a moment, to 1920, where horses are pulling carts along dirt tracks, carrying produce grown down the road on Hahndorf's farming land. There are people bustling around and the first stone of this soon to be magnificent home is today, being set down. 

Built by Martin Kaesler, a wheelwright, completed this home with a mission of fine craftsmanship. 400mm thick stone walls, 3.5m high ceilings, 4 large airy bedrooms and a verandah out the front; this home stood proud upon a small rise, overlooking the township. 

Games of tennis were played in the huge rear yard, there were plentiful vegetables being grown and the eggs were being pickled in the sizable cellar below. 

50years later, in 1970 the home was sold to the family who still own it today, where it underwent an enormous extension at that time. This era brought about Spanish inspiration, where inside ornate cornices meet the high ceilings, there's chandeliers, retro sliding glass doors dividing living rooms, an indoor/outdoor sunroom with ceiling clad in timber panelling. There's sash windows and French doors in curved arches and timber floorboards under the carpet, all still in original condition today.

There is so much to love, but she now needs some love. Cosmetically, there's work to be done and the roof needs attention, but it's such a substantial home with good bones to make it all worthwhile. 

Sited on two titles, a recent survey proposes the possibility of a further subdivision into 4 titles, each being approx. 1117sqms. This is subject to Council consent, but the opportunity to create such large vacant blocks, just 450metres to the now bustling Main Street of Hahndorf, is beyond exceptional. 

Perhaps keep the home on one title of approx. 2000sqms and sell two at the rear?

Renovate the home and reinstate the whole property as one substantial holding on over an acre?

Or knock down and start all over. The options are nothing short of incredibly exciting.

This property will be sold to the best offer by 12noon Monday 28th November 2022, unless sold prior. This is an opportunity not to be missed!
