An extraordinary level of consideration, care, craftsmanship and creativity has culminated in an incredibly unique and special property here at Pelican Lagoon. Thanks to the expertise of a talented and artistic couple, this property is a showcase and reflection of lives well lived and enjoyed in this superb part of Kangaroo Island.

Aptly named 'Boomerbank', the property is sited on a manageable allotment of approximately 1.5 hectares overlooking Pelican Lagoon and consists of a two bedroom cottage, large artist's studio and meandering walkways within the gardens.

The character-laden cottage built in approximately 1900 by the Potter brothers, has undergone a significant restoration and retains the wonderful olde world charm of years gone by.

The symmetrical cottage, originally of four main rooms, has been opened up to create a more spacious combined kitchen, living and dining area with the beautiful picture windows providing a glimpse to the front gardens. A lovely wood combustion fire set within the original fireplace adds warmth and ambience and an additional new split system air conditioner provides convenient, efficient heating and cooling.

Beyond the thick stone hallway walls are two bedrooms and a separate laundry and bathroom with walk-in shower.

Meticulous details abound with hand painted fish on the walls and the delightful hand blown glass ornaments from fellow artist Bernard Stoner adorning the lighting pull cords.

The front verandah is a wonderful spot to sit and take in the abundant birdlife and sprawling front gardens. The garden itself has evolved over the years with a range of plants specifically selected for their hardiness to allow for less ongoing maintenance. It is also protected by a 'kangaroo proof' fence around the perimeter. When it's time to shelter from the afternoon sun the gazebo off the rear patio is the place to be.

A true sanctuary for lifestyle and creativity the studio and workshop has doubled as a gallery and played host to a number of exhibitions and artists in the past. This enormous space could lend itself to a range of pursuits including a conversion to guest accommodation (subject to planning consents). The lower level consists of a workshop to tinker and formal entrance to entertain guests by the fire.

Follow the timber stairs to the upper level and a vast space awaits you with two balconies to take in the view of the surrounding paddocks and lagoon. It is such an inspiring space to be present and enjoy.

With ample rainwater storage there's also an enclosed vegetable patch and fabulous two car garage and storage area.

Whilst the infrastructure of the garage and studio is relatively new, our Vendor's creativity and desire to repurpose materials delivers aged patinas and an abundance of personality at every turn.

Located just 20 minutes from the ferry port and essential supplies in Penneshaw, and a few minutes drive to either Island Beach or Pennington Bay, experiencing the wonders of Kangaroo Island is a breeze. Fancy freshly shucked oysters straight from the farm? You'll find them at American River just a ten minute drive away.

Such an incredibly unique offering and opportunity for one very lucky buyer.
