A rare slice of Middleton's history is being offered for sale for the first time this century. Believed to have been constructed in the late 1860s on original Allotment 16, this charming stone cottage was once home to Mr Yates, the local School Master, and stands as a wonderful reminder of the township's early beginnings.
In many South Australian country towns during the 1800s, schoolmaster residences were modest stone cottages built close to the local school, often funded by church or government bodies and constructed from locally sourced limestone or sandstone. This property is a fine example of that era, retaining much of its original character and simplicity.
Positioned on a substantial allotment of more than 1000m, and importantly free from heritage listing or overlays, the property presents exciting possibilities for renovation, extension or redevelopment (STCC). Whether you choose to restore the cottage to its former glory or explore its future potential, the opportunity is exceptional.
The original dwelling comprises four main rooms including two bedrooms, kitchen and living room. Authentic features remain throughout, including the original Metters top fire wood stove in the kitchen, open fireplace in the lounge and beautiful stone walls, adding warmth and character rarely found today.
Upon entry, the timber vaulted ceiling, stone walls, tiled floors and central skylight set the tone for this gorgeous cottage and being perfectly located less than 80 metres from Middleton's main street and approximately 650 metres from Middleton Point - the property would make an ideal coastal retreat, holiday accommodation or unique Airbnb.
Rich in history, full of character and positioned in one of the Fleurieu Peninsula's most sought-after coastal townships, this is a truly special offering with endless potential. For more details and inspection times, call Tania on 0407 970 916.
