Built in 1920, this grand and gracious bungalow is a part of the living history of the beautiful seaside town of Victor Harbor. Built by the same architects (Woods Bagot) as the St Joan of Arc Catholic Church across the road, it served for years as the church's Presbytery.
The house is sited on an outstanding block of over 1500 square metres and is only a short walk to the main Victor Harbor shopping precincts as well the magnificent seafront with its stunning views of Granite Island, the Bluff and beyond.
The home itself is quite exceptional and is immediately appealing. The quality of the build is self evident. Everywhere you look you will see quality craftsmanship in a home that has stood the test of time and will no doubt continue to do so for many years to come. It has large verandahs virtually wrapping around the house and providing wonderful all season outdoor living spaces.
