Overview

36 Springton Road, Williamstown, SA, 5351

This charming circa 1901 sandstone farmhouse, known as 'Brookleigh', is nestled behind majestic gum trees and features a complete wrap-around veranda that immediately captivates. The property is situated on approximately 82.8 acres of undulating and hilly land with several level areas and 4WD access tracks reaching all corners of the farm.

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed by an impressive hallway adorned with original hardwood timber flooring and a front door framed by exquisite lead-light windows. Alongside the hallway is a built-in floor-to-ceiling bookshelf with cupboards at the base, providing ample storage space.

The farmhouse kitchen is a true country-style space that incorporates the dining area. It is equipped with a Belling 'Rangemaster' electric stove featuring dual ovens and a five-ring gas cooktop. A standout feature of the kitchen is the Esse 'Ironheart' wood-burning stove, prominently positioned with an exposed and re-pointed chimney breast. The kitchen window offers delightful views over the fruit orchard.

The home comprises two bedrooms. The master bedroom benefits from a wood combustion fire, ideal for cooler months, while the second bedroom also boasts a fireplace. Both bedrooms have direct access to the fully enclosed northern side of the wrap-around veranda and back doors leading outside. Additionally, a third 'sleep out' area has been created within the enclosed veranda to accommodate extra guests.

The bathrooms include a shower, bath, and vanity adjacent to the hallway near the entrance. A second shower, vanity, and toilet are located in the spacious laundry area just off the kitchen. The property also features a large attic/loft space with good height, which could potentially be converted into additional bedrooms subject to council approval.

Underneath the front of the house runs a vast cellar with power and lighting throughout, providing excellent storage options.

Outbuildings and sheds on the property include a former dairy now used as a storage area, a timber shed, a large fox-proof chook run and shed with natural shade, a large implement shed, a coolroom storage lockup, and a smaller studio with air conditioning currently used as a floristry studio. There is a single car garage with a tool/storage annex at the rear and a sturdy two-car carport located on the northern side of the home.

The land is divided into three paddocks and two horse/stock yards, all offering natural shade and shelter. The fencing is in great condition with recent upgrades. Water resources include two spring-fed dams and a well equipped with a solar pump. Water storage tanks total 180,000 litres spread over 12 tanks, with stock water troughs supplied to two paddocks and dam water to the third. Three-phase power is available on the property.

The grounds feature an extensive cut flower patch of approximately two acres, predominantly growing Australian and South African native flowers and foliage. This area presents an attractive income stream through direct cut flower sales to wholesalers or as part of a floristry enterprise, with ample land available for expansion. A comprehensive list of flowers currently growing will be provided.

Additional horticultural features include fruit and nut trees, a vegetable garden, and a stunning old fig tree. The fruit trees include plums, apricot, pomegranates, apple, pears, mulberries, loquats, almonds, and quince. The vegetable garden consists of 11 raised beds fitted with a dripper irrigation system and is fully fenced to protect from stock and wildlife.

Located in the beautiful Southern Barossa region, Williamstown is renowned for some of the finest wines and offers numerous local attractions. The township provides essential amenities such as a hotel, cafes, bakery, deli, post office, pharmacy, medical surgery, hairdressers, barbers, beauticians, an op shop, landscape supplies, and a plant nursery. A Foodland supermarket and service station are planned for the near future. The community is vibrant with various local clubs, including the popular Southern Barossa Men's Shed.

Outdoor recreational opportunities abound with SA Forestry and SA Water permitting walking, hiking, fishing, kayaking, and in some areas, horse riding. School buses service nearby schools including Birdwood, Faith Lutheran, St Jakobi, and Trinity College, with a local primary school and daycare centre available. The larger township of Gawler is a 20-minute drive away, and Adelaide and its airport are approximately an hour's drive.
