Entry to the property is via an established and very pretty front garden framed in parts by formal flower beds sitting behind a beautiful old stone wall. The front verandah is just the place to sit and enjoy the garden and catch stunning Adelaide Hills sunsets each and every night.
Directly off the central hallway run the two sitting rooms; the formal lounge features a slow combustion wood heater to ensure ample country warmth when required and the original doors, timber floorboards along with large mantel over the fireplace would suit an antique mirror and similar furniture or a contemporary style where today's modern tastes meet the styles of yesteryear. The other sitting room could easily format as a fourth bedroom, formal dining room or what used to be called a 'drawing room' or study to be enjoyed as a quiet place to sit, read and enjoy the open fireplace.
The eat-in kitchen features a beautiful old green and cream Metters wood-burning stove positioned in the original kitchen fireplace along with a fire clay Butler's sink with solid Jarrah benchtops either side and a large modern 5 burner stainless steel gas stove. The bathroom has been stylishly upgraded with linen storage cupboard adjacent and from the hallway the wonderfully quaint and original wooden staircase leads upstairs to 3 good sized bedrooms all with timber floors and the main bedroom still has the original old fireplace.
To the rear of the dwelling are a couple of small utility rooms for boots, the washing machine, driers, freezer etc. and immediately outside the dwelling is a large yard which could easily accommodate 4 cars, a boat and even a caravan.
Shedding includes an old stone walled stable with the original cobblestone floor which easily stores the garden implements for easy access to the cottage garden over a bridge spanning the gorgeous Angus Creek.
The beautiful flat half acre block has lots of low maintenance lawn and is all usable. Suitable for chooks, landscaping, a veggie patch, orchard with a varierty of fruit trees, truly a stunning masterpiece 'Lilybanks' is a true character situated in a town of characters and is just waiting for the next custodian to add their touch to this property both inside and out.
