Last Listing description (April 2024)

Taking pride of place in a thriving and historic river town edging the beach and Hindmarsh Island Bridge, comes a unique opportunity to endow Goolwa's rich history with a rewarding future some 70 scenic southern minutes from Adelaide.

"The Australasian" is a grand, heritage-listed building once awarded for its boutique, luxury guest accommodation hosting 6 bespoke ? and as per its namesake ? Australasian-style suites.

And while bookings closed long ago, this architecturally improved monument is now open to a world of buyers seeking new ways to endorse and emphasise ? or purely live in and love - this locally significant colonial.

Equally proficient as a private residence or a lettable holiday home, its 4-level prominence boasts statement fixtures and finishes, promotes both indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces plus wine bar and/or dining potential in a time-honoured meld of new and nostalgic themes.

It's everything curious tourists crave.

Whether you're in pursuit of one fine home or to fine-dine clientele, the c1858 property has a lobby, a commercially adept kitchen, an ambient rooftop terrace to take in the fresh Fleurieu air, a vine-clad terrace, Zen Garden, and tactile pairings of timber and steel, glass and stone.

How you reinterpret its intoxicating Porter Street presence is up to you, and the usual council consents.

Proudly claiming its street corner position easy walking minutes to the Wharf precinct, local galleries, Amelia Park Playground, and a treasure trove of Cadell Street wares and cafes, take the key and restart the clock in a rich colonial timepiece?
