This stunning circa 1880 character home, perched in a prime location on the high side of St John Street, offers the perfect balance of old-world charm and the comforts of modern living.
From the moment you set foot on this property, you are greeted with subtle reminders of an era where quality was expected and delivered. The pre-federation influences include decorative paving, bay windows, polished floor boards throughout, high ceilings and intricate ceiling roses. In keeping with the character of the period are also picture rails, not 1 but 4 ornate fireplaces and your own claw-foot bath to relax in after a hard day, this welcoming home is sure to appeal.
Upon entering the home, the grand central hallway first guides you through the 4 double bedrooms, 3 of which offer built in robes. Continuing on, you will find 2 full size family bathrooms plus a third toilet, formal lounge, generous pantry and separate laundry with ample storage.
The modern and spacious kitchen flows into a bright and sunny family dining room that completes a recent extension to the home. This then opens out to a private paved courtyard, creating a perfect setting for family BBQs or even just a quiet morning coffee whilst soaking in the scents of your established cottage garden. The sheltered wrap veranda offers the ultimate setting to enjoy a glass of wine as you take in the spectacular view at sunset across the Launceston skyline.
With dual-access street frontage, off-street parking will never be a problem. The main garage is accessed off St John St and provides secure parking for 2 vehicles plus extra storage area and internal access to house and the rear of the property offers a single garage plus addition parking space off Thomas Street. And all just a stone’s throw away from the hospital, shops, cafes and the CBD.
