37 Dalton Avenue, Aldgate SA 5154

A C1880 stone cottage is special in itself. But when that same cottage has never left the clutches of the very family its address was named after, it goes beyond special and becomes a story worth continuing on a sprawling 10-acre property of pure Hills bliss.

Whether you bring the cottage back to life, reshape it, show it off like a proud photo on the wall, or cleverly connect it to a new build to create bold contrast between two opposing eras, one fact remains: it's a piece of history worth preserving.

The property itself carries its own unique allure, gently rising until it finally reaches its boundary at Nation Ridge Road, opening up a world of possibilities as to where you can build a home that architecturally embraces its magical surrounds.

Could you build toward the plot's highest point on that southern side, pitching a sweeping view back toward the cottage, your very own dam and the old stone-laden dairy that stand below?

The dairy, much like the cottage, keeps close to Dalton Avenue and one of the multiple entry points that feature along it, ensuring a build on this northern side of the property comes with more cost-effective access for builders/trades and connection to the services already in place.

You can't put a price on its history, the childhood stories the Dalton family will tell you, and the countless spots to simply sit and take in a parcel that changes by the season and never gets old.
