While the rest of the world continues to march at a frantic pace, we offer a delightful property in West Launceston, Tasmania which remains true to its late Victorian era. Built circa 1890, this beautiful home has been fully renovated with all modern appliances, but it is defined by its original features of polished floorboards, high ceilings and ornate fireplaces. Upon arrival, you will be struck by the unique entrance of stained glass panels within the front door which leads into a wide hallway featuring the decorative marbling effect and plasterwork skills employed by the craftsmen of yesteryear. The front sitting room captures the full morning sun and has magnificent views. It could also double as a fourth bedroom if required. The formal dining room, complete with chandelier, has an entrance to the surrounding bullnose veranda which overlooks the city of Launceston. A beautiful feature of the veranda is the iron lacing which was a classic decoration on houses of this era. An open-plan kitchen and family room leads into the study and separate laundry. Adjacent to the kitchen is a paved and covered area suitable for outdoor living, and up a few steps you will find another very private, wisteria covered, entertaining area. A large, quality built double carport and plenty of off-street parking is accessible from the rear entrance in Wyett Street, and the well- established and terraced gardens include apricot, walnut, lemon, fig, persimmon, quince and plum trees. With room to move both inside and out, this 2 bathroom, 3 or 4 bedroom character-filled home is a must see. Taking advantage of a north-easterly aspect, the dress-circle position is directly opposite Arbour Park; a few minutes’ walk into town, and so close to Cataract Gorge. Call us.
