Architecturally, the 1850′s residence, the Coach House and courtyard setting are a near-complete evocation of early colonial times. Well-appointed, the home has been fastidiously renovated and restored. The Victorian Georgian styling is evident in the overall proportions and elegants of the home, the very high ceilings with decorative moulding and cornices, original fire places with coal grates, wide central hall with high skirtings and pine floorboards and the original timber staircase.

The prime position of the property provides easy access to bustling Salamanca Place and the waterfront restaurants and Galleries, and is just a few minutes walking distance to the city and the Sandy Bay shopping precinct.

On the ground level the spacious home offers a formal sitting room, three additional elegant and spacious rooms, a sitting area with access to the courtyard, a well equipped kitchen and a large laundry. Upstairs there are three spacious attic double bedrooms (each with an ensuite). Across the paved courtyard is the quaint Coach House. On two levels, the Coach House is fully upgraded, presents beautifully and has an ensuite and reverse cycle air conditioner.

Steeped in history, Barton Cottage has for many years been a landmark accommodation provider and was the first ‘Bed and Breakfast’ in Australia however the business is not for sale. The property is now offered for sale as a residential dwelling.
