4 Townsend Street, Mount Torrens, SA 5244

It feels like this proud and original homestead has held its breath for 100 years. Now, with a replenishing upgrade almost imminent, it's ready to exhale and retell its storied past on a prime 2927sqm corner parcel and two street frontages.

For the historian, lifestyle buyer or hands-on renovator, it's heart-string material with merit. And on two adjoining titles of land - with a towering palm tree said to have been planted by returned servicemen, post WW1 - it's more than special.

Some of the home's large, flexible rooms are surprisingly well preserved. The formal lounge and dining rooms honour a simpler time; high ceilings, timber architraves, and rustic open fireplaces among some of its keepsakes worth retaining.

Elsewhere, the kitchen, internal cellar and bathroom yearn for a rethink, while the outdoor toilet is another reminder of its era. Beyond the bungalow's stone façade and return verandahs, the beauty of the second title is that it's virtually vacant.

Unmissable undersells this opportunity.

With the Angas Creek trickling across the property, the 1860s shed is the only structure to straddle the boundary. It's had a long list of uses over its lifetime; the most colourful being as the village 'lock-up' for railway workers who spent far too long at the adjacent pub.

Shedding and palm trees aside, the vacant land has promise virtually etched into it. Build a brand-new multi-generational residence, shedding for the tradie or car collector, or repurpose the rare open land for a lifestyle addition or luxurious tourist retreat, STCC.

As a charming township in easy reach of Woodside, Birdwood and Lobethal, Mount Torrens puts rolling landscapes, cellar doors, vineyards, and country pubs on the lifestyle agenda; this rare dual-title proposition leaves the next move completely yours.

For a landholding with history and options wide open, Townsend Street is an address that makes for a good story…
