Property Features
Thomas Highland was a wealthy farmer hailing from England, UK, but Australia became his home and when the town of Goolwa was first surveyed, he built this residence. Aside from the station master's cottage on crown land, this is quite possibly Goolwa's first home built way back in 1853. Some years later the home was extended to incorporate a butcher's shop. A beautiful building, with a rich history in this holiday hot spot. Located in "Little Scotland" a state heritage area, this home has been lovingly restored and improved to give you the mod cons desired for modern living, while still maintaining the historic feel that the home deserves. A wonderful location that offers an easy walk to the Cockle Train, Oscar W steam boat, wharf markets, the river, the distillery, the wine bar, restaurants, pubs, cafes, parks, super markets and the oval, this is absolutely ideal to set up for permanent living or weekly getaways. Currently a very successful Air bnb (super host), with amazing reviews, the opportunities here are endless. Features Include: Beautifully appointed master bedroom with timber floors and ceiling fan Formal lounge with wood fire, split system AC and timber floors Combined kitchen / dining area with slate flooring and feature ceilings Quality appliances and ample work spaces for cooking and entertaining Guest bedroom with good size and timber flooring Large cellar in excellent condition (footprint of master bedroom) with feature glass trap door – Storage? Cellar? Immaculate bathroom / laundry with chequered tiled floor and laundry access to rear Amazing back yard – very generous size for "Little Scotland" Fire pit, entertaining area Elevated Monterey Cyprus deck with feature Large Flowering South Australian Blue Gums Turfed area and a variety of low maintenance natives, plus irrigation Utilities area Red Brick feature paths and coping Single garage with concrete floor and power Shared common driveway Amazing location and beautiful street appeal A truly amazing offering that would provide instant living or take up where the current owners have left off, with one of Goolwa's most successful rentals. A slice of Goolwa's history with nothing more to do that to sit back and enjoy. Highland's House, circa 1853, could be all yours.
