From the moment you enter the expansive grounds of this home it will give a sense of being in a private reserve. This property consists of 28 acres approx. of rural land with commanding views over Launceston and the Tamar River to the north and to the South over White Hills, Relbia and Evandale.
This home was designed by Robert Morris Nunn and was “House of the Year” in 1988. Many of the features of this home reflect its unique style and they are as unique as the pervious owner who’s devotion to the property and its gardens is evident today.
Inside is five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a well appointed kitchen and space to spread out in all directions. The double recycled brick design was ahead of its time and complements the mellowed pine ceilings and slate flooring in the home. The “Black” room is were you will find the inviting open fire nestled in the stone wall, which is a feature of the home. The downstairs wing leads to a stunning glass atrium that houses the ten metre salt water pool, infrared sauna and new sapphire pool spa – in essence you have your own health club.
Outside you will find a wonderful central private courtyard that is accessed from both the dining area and the pool atrium. From here it is just a short stroll to the full size tennis court, overlooked by the rotunda, ready to sit back and enjoy the afternoon sun while taking in the views to the south.
This home, and the acreage that forms part of it, offers a unique opportunity for a country lifestyle within minutes of the heart of one of Tasmania’s fastest growing cities. With access to the museums, university, theatres, cafes and a cosmopolitan feel to the city centre.
