The historic old lolly shop with two potential incomes plus residence

If picturesque, old-world charm is high on your list, then it would be hard to suggest a better place to call home. This remarkable property offers an Airbnb plus a one-bedroom rental, allowing for a generous potential income stream without leaving home. Masquerading beneath a beautiful bullnose verandah resides an approximate 1860s work of art that will captivate those who appreciate the beauty of yesteryear. From the Mintaro slate front verandah to the stables at the rear of the property, there is so much to discover.

Upon entering through the character front door, you are greeted by high ceilings, timber floors, and an amazing pendant light. The main residence comprises two large bedrooms with timber flooring, with the master bedroom boasting an open fireplace. Both bedrooms are fitted with ceiling fans.

The country-inspired kitchen sits at the beating heart of this masterpiece. It features a Simpson freestanding wood stove, a stainless-steel freestanding gas stove, stainless-steel rangehood, and a deep sink. Solid timber benchtops are complemented by a large island bench ideal for food preparation, a generous skylight, and a walk-in pantry. The exquisite glass and timber door perfectly complements its surroundings.
The sizeable family room features new carpet, two ceiling fans, and two skylights, all enhanced by stone walls and a wood combustion heater. A reverse-cycle Daikin split system air conditioner provides year-round comfort.

A separate office or study with timber ceilings, carpet, and a ceiling fan creates the perfect quiet space for working or browsing the internet.
The main bathroom servicing the residence is light and airy, offering a large glass shower, toilet, and laundry facilities.
The gallery showcases spectacular slate flooring and large built-in cupboards for storage. A ceiling fan and colonial windows set the tone for an entertainer's paradise, comfortably accommodating a 10-12-seater dining table. An indoor garden area, skylight, and wall heater are welcome additions.

The BnB features one bedroom and is divided by double doors, ensuring privacy for its occupants. It boasts its own lounge room with a combustion heater, ceiling fan, skylights, and microwave. While there are no cooking facilities, the owner provides breakfast, and guests have access to a rear garden area with a BBQ. This area also includes a two-person spa plus a separate shower, toilet, and vanity. The boutique BnB has its own private entrance, allowing guests to come and go at their leisure without entering the main residence.
In addition, there is a one-bedroom unit located alongside the BnB. It offers its own lounge room, kitchenette with storage cupboards and microwave oven, skylight, and timber panelling. Comfort is enhanced with a reverse-cycle split system air conditioner and its own hot water service. The bathroom/laundry includes a modern shower, toilet, and vanity. This space is perfect for an older child or as a rental room for additional income.

The cottage-style rambling gardens, set on approximately 1,900m², are simply stunning and blend perfectly with the ambiance that exudes from this classic masterpiece.

Additional features include a 5.5kW solar system and majestic gum trees that enhance the surroundings. The property also offers six raised wicking garden beds and a large rear double steel garage with concrete floor, lighting, power, and a workbench.
A rear verandah at the back of the house is ideal for balmy evenings spent sipping a port while reflecting on the day's activities among the many wineries that dot the district. Additionally, there are three heritage stables at the rear with slate floors and walls, providing undercover parking for 5-6 vehicles.

If you're after one of the Clare Valley's favourite towns, rich in character and charm, look no further - complete with two separate potential income streams.
