Nestled amongst the vineyards of the world-renowned Coonawarra wine region, in the historic township of Penola, recently recognised as Australia's 2025 Agricultural Town of the Year, this enchanting character residence presents a rare opportunity to secure a piece of local history in one of South Australia's most sought after regional destinations.

Just a short stroll from Penola's vibrant town centre, cafes, boutique shops, galleries and everyday conveniences, the property enjoys a prime location while retaining a remarkable sense of privacy and tranquillity.
Believed to date back to around 1910, this charming Edwardian Villa showcases many of the period features that make homes of this era so highly sought after. Soaring ceilings, ornate ceiling roses, original timber floors, decorative fireplaces and beautiful proportions create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout.
The home offers three generous sized bedrooms on the main level, each retaining its historic character and original fireplaces as a nod to the property's rich heritage. The spacious lounge room features a functioning fireplace, creating the perfect setting for family gatherings during the cooler months.
The updated bathroom introduces modern comfort while remaining sympathetic to the home's character, highlighted by a beautiful clawfoot bath that invites long, relaxing soaks. Importantly for families and guests, the home also benefits from two toilets. A practical mud room connects to the laundry and an additional versatile room, offering flexibility for hobbies, guests, storage or a home office.
One of the home's most captivating features is the unique loft retreat accessed via a staircase from the dining room. Surrounded by windows and filled with natural light, this inspiring space could serve as a fourth bedroom, artist's studio, reading room, meditation retreat or creative sanctuary. From here, enjoy views across the surrounding rooftops and gardens by day, and marvel at the stars above Penola by night.
Set on a substantial allotment of approximately 1,400m, the property provides space rarely found so close to the town centre. The expansive grounds offer room for children and pets to play safely within the enclosed rear yard, while established gardens, vegetable growing areas and additional shedding add to the property's practicality and appeal.
There is ample space for multiple vehicles, including secure parking for cars as well as room for a caravan, boat or trailer. The generous landholding also presents exciting possibilities for future expansion, additional shedding or potential subdivision opportunities, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Whether you're searching for a distinctive family residence, a charming country escape, an artist's haven, or even a boutique accommodation venture, this exceptional property offers endless potential to make it your own.
As afternoon light filters through the large windows, the home takes on a special ambience that speaks to its history and character. Peaceful, unique and full of soul, this is a residence that offers far more than accommodation. It offers a lifestyle.
