Take a step back in time with this faithfully restored Georgian sandstone home – blending modern convenience with old world charm. Set in the heart of historic Ross – Tasmania’s Tidy Town of the year 2007. A short stroll from the historic Ross Bridge, this c1850s home has recently undergone a two-year restoration project, faithfully restoring the building to its former glory. Featuring four bedrooms, versatile and spacious living areas, a new ultra-modern kitchen (with European S/S appliances), new period-style bathroom (plus extra toilet) and beautifully landscaped gardens. Features include polished floorboards, a claw-foot bath, electric and wood-heating throughout (featuring six working open fireplaces with antique mantles) and beautifully polished cedar and Baltic-pine joinery. The house has been re-wired and re-plumbed, hand-split hardwood fencing compliments the setting, and the large grounds feature several outdoor entertainment areas, a dozen fruit trees, two large sheds, and off street parking for several cars. Approvals are in place for a B&B and/or gallery – commercial opportunities abound, or just move in and enjoy Tasmania’s premier Georgian heritage village.
Less than an hour from Launceston, and 1.5 hours to Hobart, this property would suit the retiree or commuter. Sandstone houses of this quality are very rarely available in Ross, don’t miss this opportunity!
