Polished timber floors and tall ceilings greet two leading double bedrooms, each savouring their spot above the world through shuttered panes.  The central lounge hosts a cosy combustion fire, while its wall of traditional sash windows makes it clear there’s a gabled pavilion and brick fireplace waiting for social winters outdoors.Nodding to its 1920 origins, the galley kitchen’s cast iron wood stove remains firmly set into its cavity, supported by a gas cooktop, dishwasher, shaker-style joinery and a wholesome garden backdrop.Alongside, the reimagined bathroom delivers contemporary luxury with an open plan shower, floating vanity, and toasty under floor heating, while a separate laundry and guest powder room provide practical direct outdoor access.There are so many aspects to take in. The solar efficiency. The dual-car carport/workshop and off-street parking for three vehicles. The rustic utility shed perched atop the sweeping 934sqm allotment. And, above it all, the treetop views that remind you exactly why you’re here.Follow the return verandahs and you'll admire the season-turning foliage from a setting that feels blissfully off the radar - despite being an easy stroll from Coles, Bridgewater Oval, and those tempting beer garden bites at The Bridgewater Inn.The air-conditioned studio could become a work-from-home haven, a bijou guest stay, or a comfy teen hang. Combined, Hillstowe’s cottage and studio bring visions of Bridgewater's next Airbnb success story.Just a 10-minute drive from the Tollgate, why not simply close the gates, and stay for good?More aspects to love:Gorgeous elevation, with a generous set back from Mount Barker Road Detached double carport/workshop + off-street parking for 3Solar efficiency (capacity TBC)Brick street-front studio with kitchenette, bathroom and split system R/C A/CModern country-style ambience throughoutOpen plan bathroom with shaker-style floating vanity + underfloor heatingRomantic return verandahs Private, gabled all-weather patio with a brick fireplaceOriginal cast iron stove to the renovated galley kitchenRear laundry/guest powder room, with external accessRetained and mulched rear garden bedsA superb Airbnb venture or idyllic hills investment.Specifications:CT / 5544/949Council / Adelaide HillsZoning / RuNBuilt / 1920Land / 934m2 (approx)Council Rates / TBAEmergency Services Levy / $301.15paSA Water / $285.22pqEstimated rental assessment / Written rental assessment can be provided upon requestNearby Schools / Bridgewater P.S, Aldgate P.S, Stirling East P.S, Heathfield P.S, Heathfield H.S  Disclaimer: All information provided has been obtained from sources we believe to be accurate, however, we cannot guarantee the information is accurate and we accept no liability for any errors or omissions (including but not limited to a property's land size, floor plans and size, building age and condition).
