St Helens - Old School Charm

If you have been looking for the perfect place to slow down, refresh your spirit and follow your dreams well look no further than this thoroughly enchanting property. Circa 1902 the former St Helens School is now a beautiful compact home of enormous appeal, just a 20 min scenic drive from Port Fairy and only 5 mins to the amenities of the historic township of Yambuk. Featuring soaring ceilings in the main living room (former classroom), a set of French doors leads you out onto a side veranda, a perfect spot to take in views of the surrounding garden. The cottage style kitchen/dining area is flooded with natural light highlighting the character of the Baltic Pine lining boards which only enhances the country ambience of this property. A well crafted stair case takes you to the master bedroom on the second level cleverly laid out to provide you with plenty of space. Accompanying the master bedroom on the second level is the spare room which is accommodating enough to fit 2 beds. The charm continues in the surrounding cottage garden with a large variety of fruit trees, native plants and low maintenance garden beds. The property includes several sheds, one in particular has the potential to be converted into a bungalow or extra guest accommodation. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a truly unique slice of history where the possibilities are as endless as its charm.
