Through door #2, they found a long enclosed porch, which stretched all the way to the other side of the house…ĭirectly in front of the back porch, they found the kitchen… Through door #1 in that room, they found a large, semi-updated bathroom. This room, however, had been outfitted with a drop-ceiling at some point…Ĭonnected to that room, and located in the back left corner of the house, they found more hardwood flooring, another drop ceiling, and some wild wall paneling… Through the hallway, and in the middle of the left side of the house, they found another room with hardwood floors and a fireplace. On the front right corner of the house, they found more hardwood flooring, another original fireplace (not shown), and another 15-pane french door, complete with original glass doorknob…Īttached to that room, and located in the midde of the house, they found more hardwood flooring, another fireplace (that someone had obviously attempted to “modernize”), and more high ceilings…12-footers, Kansel guessed. On the front left corner of the house, they found hardwood floors, covered in a large carpet remnant, and an original fireplace, covered in a thin layer of white paint…
Like moths to a flame, they moved forward into the hallway, and looking back at the foyer, they discovered a wall full of built-in cabinets… Moving through the window-filled front door, they stepped straight into a small-yet-tall foyer…
Inside, they found a beautiful blank canvas…Īnd outside of it, they found a one heckuva peaceful view… …and Letel entered through the porch door on the right side of the house… Kansel entered through the porch door on the left side of the house… …they scurried up to the front of the house, and made it inside the porch without incident. Visions of a radiant-meets-rustic guest house and a coop full of pretty chickens began dancing in Letel’s happy head.īut after discovering the big cinderblock building to the left was positively swarming with hundreds of carpenter bees… They also found four old outbuildings speckled across the backyard. To the right of the spot they parked their car, they found a small arbor covered in muscadine vine…Īnd as they made their way around the back of the house, they discovered the driveway they came in on conveniently wrapped itself all the way around and shot straight back up to the main road… …and tucked just fifteen minutes away from the interstate, they came upon the lovely little house they had read about… They passed many a horse-dotted pasture along the way… Pets are welcome but must be kept on a leash and under their owners control at all times whilst on the property.Once upon a time, a curious couple named Kansel and Letel decided to take a little drive and see about a hobby farm they saw advertised for sale… Browse little Mt Perry Markets (held every second Sunday of the month at the Museum).Visit Mt Perry Lookout (where you can view the surrounding mountains).Drive Tunnel Road all the way to Mt Perry (dirt road and a few gates to go through, then turn left at the T).It's a unique experience to walk through the tunnel and observe the little bent-wing bats that live and breed inside the tunnel walls. Just before you reach the Tunnel is an information station where you can learn more about its history. On the way, you will also see the old heritage-listed former state school of Boolboonda and a little picnic area featuring a large fig tree. It's a pleasant walk, bike ride, or short drive to get there. Just 2km from the campsite is a unique historical landmark, 'THE TUNNEL'. Garden Tour/Walk, garden produce, feed the cows etc. Be sure to check out ALL our extras !!!! eg. Feel welcome to help yourself to any fallen branches around to use for extra firewood (more available for purchase - under EXTRAS). Relax at night by your own fire pit under the clear starry sky.
