“Tally Ho” is an important example of early South Australian Architecture set in an exclusive position with 180 degree sweeping bay and city views that is surprisingly private from the roadside and existing neighbours.
Built circa 1930’s, as you enter this grand sandstone property you will be transported back to an earlier era where you lived a much slower paced lifestyle with grand sized rooms and quality craftsmanship is evident immediately with the ornate ceilings and leadlight glass.
There are seven main rooms, the dining and lounge room along with the main bedroom are all located at the front of the home and are able to capture the most amazing views over the town and the bay that are highlighted beautifully from the expansive window; even the ensuite has a view!
Of the remaining three bedrooms, all of which have high ceilings, one is currently an office and one of the other two larger rooms is connected to a generous rumpus room. This area is an extension to the existing home. A great place for the family to utilise as a second living area, the pool room with large windows and an excellent northerly aspect taking full advantage of the warming winter sun.
The formal lounge room connects seamlessly to the dining area, beneath which lies a capacious wine cellar. Both rooms are serviced by a split system reverse cycle air conditioner and slow combustion fireplace with French doors leading to the front verandah.
The verandah runs along the entire front of the home and wraps around one side and is the perfect place to sit back and relax with an iced tea and take in the view.
Evoking warmth and a sense of belonging you can easily envisage your family living here and breathing new life into this stately property that will respond greatly to some updating and bringing the majestic home into the 21st Century yet still retaining its original character. A little hard work and some time and you will acquire a wonderful investment that will further enhance as each year passes.
A once in a generation opportunity of acquisition for this historic residence.
