Situated just 15 min from Cambrai and 10 min from Walker Flat (Murray River) is "Tor-Vale" cottage, an 1880's (approx.) stone cottage that simply oozes, character, history, comfort and quality. Add to this the amenity that big River Red Gums and remnant bush provides and you have the complete quality country escape package.
**Please note there are several pictures where lawn has been superimposed to show what the home would be like with an established lawn.**
The property is set within big old River Red Gum country with flat to undulating land. Marne River is at the front of the property. Property has a real sense of being in the Flinders Ranges. Established gardens and the gums provides for an oasis feel. Property is self-sufficient for water with a restored windmill and additional newly equipped bore. Infrastructure (tanks and piping) is in place to move water to header tanks and around the home and gardens.
The home has a large open plan country kitchen with new Nectre "Big Baker's" wood fired stove/oven and separate gas stove. Adjacent dining is consistent with the heritage of the building. Lots of natural light and country views from all rooms. Three bedrooms (master with large ensuite), comfortable lounge and a family bathroom. Useful shedding. Separate buildings house the laundry, storage and your own authentic country bar or additional bedroom/teenage retreat. Several additional stone outbuildings provide scope for additional crafts/art/studio options.
1735 Black Hill Road is a great example of a "lifestyle" property which is private, peaceful with a comfortable home full of character and history. Annual rainfall of 375 mm (approx.).
