Jack's Shack is a unique two bedroom icon, of one of the islands first 'Jack of all trades' builders. He was a painter, stonemason and part of a great travelling Circus. He later opened a shop on Dauncey St, known to be the first discount variety store providing essential goods to residents.
100 years ago, he purchased this property to retire in.
The main bedroom now has a modern update, quirky bathroom utilising his original kitchen sink cupboard he built himself, along with the original wardrobe.
The second bedroom was originally his 'radio room' where he used to tune in daily to hear the events occurring in WW2 before his final resting place in the Kingscote Hospital in 1945.
Within walking distance of coffee shops, restaurants and the tidal pool with glimpses of the sea, this property is in the heart of Kingscote, providing the perfect base to experience the Island by day and relax by night.
