Nuriootpa 35 Second Street

One of Nuriootpa's original homes and possibly one of the last still used as a private residence. Built around 1845, this lovely cottage sits on a surprisingly large land parcel of 1356 m2. The location just one street back from the town's main street is quite remarkable.
The cottage is walking distance to a vast array of shops and services, including venues in the main street and outlets in the Barossa Central regional shopping centre. This makes it convenient for family life and well placed for anyone considering investment in the B&B market.
Early German settler cottages traditionally had low ceilings, low doorways and a cellar, and that is exactly what you'll find here. be ready for an eclectic mix of rendered walls, panelled ceilings and varying floor and ceiling heights. Recent renovations have added many comforts and improvements to meet our high expectations for modern living, including split system air conditioning.
Now disposed as a three-bedroom home, the layout allows for great flexibility. Enter into a central hallway with polished timber floors and experience a treasure trove of period features.
The cosy lounge at the front of the home has steps leading down to the original cellar, currently used as a fourth bedroom but previously enjoyed as a full-service bar with ample room for wine storage and a tasting table.
There is a charming separate dining room with slate floor, fireplace, rose leadlight skylight and raked white ceiling. The kitchen is adjacent with the slate flooring continued throughout. Timber cabinets with lots of storage, modern benchtops, dishwasher and an impressive new electric stove feature.
A generous master bedroom is at the back of the home adjacent the family bathroom. A second bedroom at the front of the home was once a formal lounge with large slate fireplace and a third very large bedroom at the centre of the home has a wall of floor-to-ceiling built-in robes.
The bathroom and separate toilet are happily not original. They have been remodelled and feature the same slate flooring found elsewhere in the home with access via a small rear lobby.
Outside is where the fun begins. The covered rear entertaining area includes rustic shedding used as a fabulous outdoor dining room. Further down the block is a separate structure with a studio and workshop. The studio has been beautifully updated as is currently used as a tranquil consulting room, but could easily also become a family rumpus room, retreat, music room, man cave, home office or teenager's media room. There is also a small woodshed adjacent a former chook run.
The large rear lawn is a blank canvas for future projects, so if you visualise a swimming pool, basketball court, serious vegetable gardens, garaging for your car collection or any other outdoor dream there is space here to accomplish it. Note there is already a solid double carport attached to the property, ideal as presented or ready to add roller doors.
For lovers of character homes who are also aware of the practicalities that need to be considered, the roof here has been replaced and the property has been rewired. Listed on the local heritage register in 2004 because it "displays aesthetic merit, design characteristics or construction techniques of significance to the local area", Barossa Council have indicated this property may also be eligible for a heritage grant for any future conservation works.
This character-filled property is a very special offering in a price range that will generate a flood of interest and excitement. Don't miss this one! This is an absolute Barossa gem.
