Built around 1880, this beautiful large rural residential property known as ‘Ripple’, a wonderful example of classic Federation architecture, 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. Elegantly and tastefully decorated, 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 minuted drive to the beach. A three-bay colourbond shed, with concrete floor, power and lights are 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.
