Reputed to be Kempton’s oldest home and built by James Waltham ( a sawyer), who came to Tasmania in 1804 with Lt David Collins in the sailing ship the Calcutta. Waltham Abbey was once a private school conducted by Canon Kemise, a retired Church of England clergyman. The substantial 2 storey sandstone residence has a huge kitchen with both combustion and electric stoves, 2 comfortable sitting rooms and 3-4 bedrooms with an ensuite and a large bathroom. The property is accessed by a long tree lined private drive to the spacious 4+ acre grounds. A large timber workshop and 2 private courtyards complete this rare offering.
