Perfect for hosting memorable gatherings, this property boasts features tailored for entertaining guests.
Perfectly nestled amongst on the historic main street of Macclesfield sits the former Post Office, General store and Bakery. From the street the property sits quietly, almost understated, shaded by established trees and recent streetscaping. In the middle of the 19th Century, Macclesfield was one of SA's most significant country towns. It was one of the Adelaide Hills' earliest towns being established in 1841 and providing services for passing miners, travelers and the local farmers. Built around 1860, using Macclesfield stone, the property has passed through many owners. Most notably were the Hayward, Barnett and Dixon families. In more recent years the property has been used as a private residence with additional accommodation. Entry to the home leads to a grand sitting room. With high ceilings, central ceiling roses and stylish window furnishings, this is a room to impress. The master bedroom, with direct access to the bathroom and dressing room, has a feature fireplace and access to a spacious outdoor deck. Sash windows with original glass panels frame the outside garden beautifully. A cute little staircase leads downstairs to the cosy country dining area, a place for family to gather. Again, a fireplace is present, complete with wood fired slow combustion heater, reading nook and picture window. A modern electric storage heater has also been installed in the downstairs area. A recent renovation is the kitchen. Overhead and under bench cupboards line the room which also accommodates the laundry space. A spacious cellar is quite quirky and intriguing. Paved flooring, exposed timber and feature glass allowing natural light to filter into the area from the front of the home. Used as a casual dining and living room, there is ample space for a substantial wine cellar. The main building is connected by a double carport with roller doors, to the old bakery. While evidence of this previous function has gone, a clever addition allows for a separate studio living area. Complete with separate bathroom and laundry, the main room accommodates a bed and dining space. Two large French doors open to an elevated deck. Floating above the garden, this is a beautiful getaway, home office or just additional room to the main home. Boasting 1906m2 allotment, almost half an acre in the heart of the township, enjoying the creek meandering its way through the rear garden of established trees, shrubs and bird life ...........a country escape has never looked so attractive.
