Last Listing description (May 2026)
Positioned prominently on the corner of Goolwa Road and Thomas Street, this exceptional property - known today as Fortuna Gallery - offers a rare opportunity to secure a landmark steeped in South Australia's rich coastal history.
Dating back to the mid-19th century (circa 1864-1870), this distinguished two-storey limestone building reflects the elegance and symmetry of the Georgian architectural style, complete with brick quoins and a commanding street presence. Originally constructed during a formative period of township development, the property has played a dynamic role in the evolution of Middleton's community.
The building is thought to have been built by Thomas Ellis, a settler who was involved in the region's agricultural and mill development. It has also been associated with early figures such as Mr Pierce and Dr Shand, serving a variety of purposes over time - including a shop and residence, consulting rooms, a temperance hotel, and a guest house. Its layered history is reflected in its former names - Seaview, Pacific House, and Waiaroa - each chapter adding to its enduring character.
In more recent years, the property gained recognition as Fortuna Gallery, a unique antique and art destination celebrated for its eclectic charm. The interiors have showcased an array of collectables and artistic expression, including restored French chandeliers, handcrafted mosaics and distinctive Chinoiserie-inspired rooms.
Key features include:
Substantial two-storey limestone construction (c.1860s)
Classic Georgian proportions and period detailing
Prominent corner allotment with high visibility
Flexible layout suited to residential, commercial or mixed-use (STCC)
Deep historical significance with multiple adaptive uses
Gallery room with timber floors and Georgian windows
20m2 Cellar under Gallery Room
16 rooms under main roof
This is a truly rare offering - an iconic building with a story to tell and endless potential for its next custodian. Whether as a private residence with dual living capacity, boutique accommodation, gallery or hospitality venture, this property invites vision and rewards appreciation for heritage.
