Built around 1880, this beautiful, large rural residential property known as ‘Ripple’, features a wonderful example of classic Federation architecture in this magnificent family home that is now reluctantly offered for sale.
Simply stunning and beautifully restored, this north-facing family home offers five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a magnificently appointed large country kitchen, formal lounge and dining rooms, open fireplaces, superb lead-lighting, wonderfully high ceilings, a classically gracious formal entrance and wide hallways. With elegant and tasteful decor and quality fittings throughout, the home feels warm and inviting.
Set on just under two acres, ‘Ripple’ is surrounded by easy-care gardens which spill out to the north and west into two well fenced pasture paddocks. Timber verandahs on both the front and rear of the home provide a restful place to sit, relax, listen to the creek and escape from the world. It’s easy to forget that you are conveniently close to both Burnie and Devonport and just a two minute drive to the beach. A three-bay colourbond shed, with concrete floor, power and lights is there for your workshop and vehicles. The property is well watered with rainwater tank, a bore and pumping rights from the near-by permanent creek.
Opportunities to own classic homes in such good condition are very rare. Enquiries are welcome from genuine buyers and inspections available by appointment.
