Historic charm meets sustainable living

Rich in history and brimming with timeless appeal, this beautifully restored circa-1860s residence offers a rare opportunity to own a slice of Kanmantoo's heritage – thoughtfully transformed for modern family living. Once serving the township as a hotel and general store in the late 1800s, the home retains its original character with high ceilings, wide hallways, polished timber floors and two working fireplaces that nod to its storied past. Now updated with care and craftsmanship, the home offers everyday comfort and a flexible layout ideal for growing families, creatives, or those seeking a charming rural escape. The heart of the home is the handcrafted kitchen – warm, welcoming and highly functional – flowing to a generous dining and living space that blends rustic character with relaxed country style. There are four spacious bedrooms, an updated bathroom, and multiple outdoor entertaining options, including a stone-paved alfresco area perfect for hosting under the stars. Outside, the expansive 1,502m² (approx) allotment offers a balance of usable space and leafy surrounds. A 3m x 6m shed provides great storage or workshop potential, while the double carport ensures undercover parking. Established gardens wrap the home in natural beauty, and there's plenty of room for pets, play, or further landscaping. What truly sets this property apart is the huge 21.4kW solar system – a rare inclusion that delivers powerful energy efficiency and dramatically reduced electricity bills, making sustainable living easy and cost-effective.
