Prospect Villa sits amongst magnificent gardens overlooking the historic, rural village of Hamilton and the surrounding productive farmlands.
The sandstone home has been faithfully and sympathetically restored and is classified by the National Trust. The expansive, historic home features elegant formal rooms, a classic library with walls of cedar bookcases, a large country kitchen (with original bakers oven), 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and enchanting, stone, rustic farm out buildings.

Perhaps the most appealing feature are the stunning, world renowned gardens.
The romantic English garden comprises a number of themed “rooms” sheltered by manicured hedges. The richly planted gardens are a riot of colour and boast a huge range of specimens. Secret gardens are enhanced with water features, urn gardens, obelisks and spectacular lattice structures.
The northern garden is themed as a Tuscan / Italian renaissance delight, with the focal point being an elegant temple; the perfect spot to enjoy a wine and to entertain guests. The symmetric layout is complimented by perfect hedges, citrus trees in huge terracotta pots, statues and a beautiful fountain.
The gardens have featured both internationally and Australia wide in gardening magazines and press articles.
The impression created is one of peace and tranquility; it gives the sense of a much larger oasis in Hamilton’s comparatively dry Mediterranean climate

Prospect Villa is approximately 60 minutes from Hobart (about 25 minutes north of New Norfolk). From this magical site, you can explore the rich farming districts, enjoy many wilderness areas including National Park, search out the local historic homes and farm buildings and use it as a base to fish the upper reaches of the River Derwent or chase the trout in the nearby Central Highlands lakes.

Prospect Villa, set in its 4,790m2 (a little over one acre) of exquisite gardens is an historic gem. It is one of the finest examples of Tasmania’s early colonial, sandstone homes, it is elegant, it is a delight, it is a rare treasure.
