'Highfield' - A country home with history, gardens and room to breathe.
A distinctive Bishopsbourne property with a wonderful sense of place, ‘Highfield’ is a circa 1914 residence set amongst established gardens and surrounding farmland. Positioned on approximately 5,761 sqm (1.42 acres), it offers the space and tranquillity of a country lifestyle while remaining just 13 minutes from Longford and under 30 minutes from Launceston.
Filled with natural light, the home retains many of the qualities that make period Tasmanian homes so appealing, including soaring ceilings, generous proportions and a strong sense of character. A welcoming sunroom overlooks the gardens, while three well-sized bedrooms include a spacious master with ensuite.
The home is comfortable and practical for modern living, with split-system heating and cooling, panel heaters and a wood fire providing year-round comfort.
Outside, the established gardens are a real feature. Mature plantings, manicured lawns and a productive vegetable garden create a private and well-considered setting, with plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors and embrace a slower pace of life.
A double garage adds valuable storage and parking, complementing the home's practical appeal.
The position is equally compelling. Longford is approximately 13 minutes away for everyday services, cafés, schools and amenities, while Launceston is less than 30 minutes from the property. You can enjoy the privacy and openness of country living without being far from the conveniences of town.
‘Highfield’ is a property with genuine character, established surroundings and a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly sought after, offering the opportunity to enjoy more space, more privacy and a little more time to yourself.
