Would you like this fabulous, historic home as your family home? Or would you like to build on this ‘Living Museum" and cater for the huge influx of tourists currently visiting the picturesque Huon Valley? The possibilities of creating a business here are enormous.
The home consists of four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a third WC, along with four living areas, a large country kitchen (with scullery) and lovely atrium catching all day sun. The house is bright and sunny and the wide, polished floorboards enhance the serene ambiance of a home that reflects days gone by. There is a fifth bedroom and bathroom in one of the outbuildings, which used to be the maids quarters. Another outbuilding has power and water connected and could also be converted to self-contained accommodation (STCA). It used to be the butchers shop, and still has a cool room, but more recently it was used as a games room, and currently as an antique shop.
The magnificent Old English garden goes beautifully with this majestic house and has been involved with the Open Garden scheme for many years. Although a large garden, it is relatively easy to maintain. The rest of the property consists of three flat paddocks and a small orchard. This fantastic opportunity is a mere twenty minute drive from Hobart, and ten minutes from Kingston.
