The former ‘Hotel Richmond’ dating to 1830 in prestigious Henry Street, Richmond comes to the market after substantial renovations by the creative and dedicated vendors who have complimented the history of this building with their own contemporary style, in this fascinating statement of a bygone era.

Comprising 2 titles of 1,481M2 total and including the now fully renovated former convict brick stables as a 1 bed, self contained coach house set among aged pepper and chinese elm trees in the mix of English and Mediterranean gardens, the sense of peace, privilege and calm instilled by the experience of this property is palpable.

Built from sandstone block in the 1830′s on land granted to a John Cassidy, Lawrence Cotham was the first licensee in 1838 and eventually owned the premises in 1853. From 1845 two coaches plied their trade from Master’s Hotel in Liverpool St to Hotel Richmond bringing early settlers to this welcoming country retreat in the Coal River Valley, now famous for some of the nation’s best cool climate wines, ever expanding agri investments and the preserved iconic English village the township has become.

Let the exquisite photographs from the talented Sheree Brennan on this listing site tell the story for you, as words scarcely do justice to the ambience and beauty of 6 Henry Street and the magical experience of living this amazing lifestyle.

Practical additions in double glazing to upstairs windows, solar water heating, heat pumps and panel heaters compliment the radiant warmth of the toasty, wood combustion heater, still functioning open fires, the all around splendour of sandstone, cedar, Tasmanian blackwood and huon pine timbers and including a grand central staircase leading to upstairs bedrooms – all add a sense of ageless welcome to friends and family alike in this unique home.

From the contemporary kitchen and family area filled with natural light and reaching out into the gardens, to the cellar access, mystical surrounds of the coach house, music room and the several out door deck and paved entertaining areas – these are the memories of a childhood once lived by our forebears but which you, with the stroke of a pen, can capture as your own.

‘Hotel Richmond’ has been inspected by structural engineer Jim Gandy and that report is available to clients considering the property. Stone mason Steve Kaye is also available for consultation, having worked on the property. Inspections strictly by appointment.
