Cottage - Local History Meets Contemporary Charm!
Welcome to a piece of Willunga's vibrant history - Dowty's Cottage, also known as Alderbury Cottage was constructed using pug and stone with a slate roof circa 1853 by local builder, George Sara. This charming two-bedroom cottage has a significant history as Dowty's General Store and has been respectfully restored to its former glory.
Inside, beautiful Willunga slate adorns the floor and classic timber windows frame the stunning exterior flora creating a unique and charming setting. The updated kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to complement the historical period, featuring a 900mm Glem Gas freestanding stove, whilst the tastefully renovated bathroom boasts a luxurious freestanding bath.
Both bedrooms feature a fireplace whilst the living room surrounds a Nectar combustion wood fire heater, complemented by a split system unit for heating and cooling.
Step outside and explore the sprawling 1760m (approx.) allotment with cottage-style gardens, filled with secret spaces perfect for quiet contemplation and home to an abundance of fruit trees including pear, apricot, carob, apple, peach, fig, mulberry and citrus, just to name a few.
Full of surprises, the property offers three additional structures. The first is a sizeable (9m x 9m approx), steel-frame, self-contained studio with high ceilings housing a commercial-grade kitchen, office, open-plan living area with split system air-conditioning and modern bathroom. This incredible space is suited to a variety of uses including an Airbnb or perhaps consider permanently connecting the structure to the cottage as a contemporary extension (STCC).
The second, an insulated music studio with a rustic, Western Red Cedar exterior and country vibe which could also be utilised as an office or retreat, and finally, a charming artist studio, rich in natural light capturing the surrounding picturesque garden views from every window, providing instant inspiration.
With dual laneway access to the property, there are endless possibilities for versatile living and being set between the Willunga Jubilee Rose Garden and Bassett Street Reserve but only metres to local cafes and eateries, you will be spoiled by the Township conveniences and relaxed lifestyle.
Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of Willunga's heritage - where history meets modern living!
