24 Houghton Street, Jamestown, SA 5491

Landmark Harcourts have listed an original and substantial stone home set on a residentially zoned parcel of land of over 4200m2.
Set back from the road from both street frontages and amid extensive gardens and mature specimen ornamental trees, the features of this timeless home are sure to please any buyer looking for a traditional stone family home.
With wide bull nose verandas on all sides for summer shade and interior and exterior stone walls over 30 cm thick, the need for extra cooling in the Jamestown summer is vastly reduced. Extra cooling is provided by 2 reverse cycle units and ceiling fans in the living areas.
The slow combustion wood fire provides the necessary warmth through the chilly Jamestown winters.
Comprising 4 double bedrooms, lounge/dining area, country kitchen, bathroom and laundry plus a full length central passageway, this a traditional home at its finest original condition and ready for the slight modernisation that may optimise the home comforts.
The bedrooms are large and roomy, most with ornate and original fireplaces along with bay windows to the front two rooms.
An interesting feature of the home are the external doors to every room, leading onto the wide verandas that surround.
Mains water is connected, but rarely used as there are substantial reserves of rainwater , estimated to be over 17000 gallons (76,500 litres) in both above ground and underground tanks and pumped to the home via pressure pump.
There are 2 car sheds, one single and one for 1 car plus a workshop together with a number of smaller ancillary sheds that can be used for a variety of purposes.
The mature gardens are a maze of gravelled pathways, mature specimen trees, garden beds and nooks and crannies that would inspire all types of games and hiding places for the children.
It is a place of peace and tranquility.
The rear yard is a mixture of cut flower beds and vegetable garden beds with assorted fruit trees providing an assortment of fruit and vegetables in season.
There is plenty of room for a substantial fowl run.
My words here, struggle to do justice to this offering and to truly appreciate what is on offer here, you must take the time to inspect the property.

To arrange an inspection, call me.
