Perched on a hill above the Tamar River in the suburb of Riverside sits one of Launceston’s premier properties, Villa Donini.

A stunning fifty seven square residence with surrounding gardens and fountains containing a myriad of classic Tuscany features.

The residence offers an array of formal and informal living. In the formal style you enter through huge double front doors to be greeted by an entrance area which leads to the sweeping staircase to the upper level. To the right of the entrance we move into an informal living area.

Continuing on we have a gourmet kitchen with granite bench tops, a large informal meals area and all this with a vista that includes superb gardens, a fountain under lights and a magnificent indoor swimming pool.

The formal areas include classic dining that will cater for the grandest of dining tables and lounge to complement. You have the option of using the stairs or the elevator, yes that’s correct, the elevator to the second level where we have four bedrooms, two with balconies offering views to the Tamar River and surrounding hills.

Another living area allows private time for family members. The ensuite to the main has to be seen to be believed. Magnificent spa, double sized shower, dual basins and walk in robes.

Outside there are beautifully crafted gardens, a magnificent fully lit tennis court and a double garage and workshop.
