With delightful views down the River Derwent, this stately two-storey Heritage Listed residence is considered to be one of the oldest residences in Clarence. It was built by convicts for the local district over-seer. The home represents a classic early Gothic Revival, with a steep pitched roof, dormer windows and hand-picked freestone exterior.

Fittings and fixtures are high quality with a variety of exotic timbers through the home. Baltic pine, Blackwood, King Billy pine and Tasmanian Oak feature as polished floorboards, staircase balustrades and in the timberwork generally. The home and three outbuildings have all recently been re-roofed, wired and some plumbing up-grading where required. The out buildings consist of a double garage with an electric door, workshop/garden shed and a substantial studio/workshop.

This spacious corner allotment has established park-like gardens with an abundance of fruit trees. The high fronted boundary hedge provides privacy but allows unencumbered views down the River Derwent to Bruny Island from the ground floor.

Adjoining the solid sandstone porch way, with its twin ecclesiastic arched panes, is a well-appointed, modern kitchen with quality appliances, solid Tasmanian Oak bench tops and joinery, and a wood heater set into the old fireplace. There is also a reverse cycle air conditioner and door that opens onto the large rear courtyard.

Along the hallway, with stair case to the upper level, is a good sized library with open fire, built in shelves and stately timber sash windows. At the end there is a capacious formal lounge/dining with open fire and stone mantel and hearth. This room has more contemporary large picture windows.

On the other side of the hallway is a study/5th bedroom with sash window that looks into the courtyard. On further there is a vast family room with wood heater set into the fire place and a reverse cycle air conditioner. This room leads out to the huge conservatory through French doors. A large bedroom off this living area could be used as
