Situated in the historic town of Bothwell in central Tasmania is this beautiful circa 1900 cottage, sitting on 2833m2 of level land that is combining two separate titles. Much like this town, the property is also steeped in history that a new caretaker has the wonderful opportunity to be part of.
Constructed with solid brick walls and showcasing classic original features such as the bullnose veranda with wooden floors, high set skirting boards, fireplaces and mantles, picture rails and sash windows: beautifully maintained and presented character that cannot be replaced.
Offering three generously sized bedrooms finished with carpet flooring, a separate sitting room with a sunny northerly aspect, and an eat-in country style kitchen featuring a wood heater, Huon pine bench tops and views overlooking the extensive gardens. The extension to the rear comprises a spacious laundry and bathroom.
The home is kept cosy by two freestanding wood heaters sitting within original fire places, one on the front sitting room and the other in the kitchen.
The perfectly level allotment is neatly presented and features mature trees, some outbuildings and is fully fenced. There is also some internal fencing creating a smaller secure space which is ideal for a pet.
Ideally, the two titles will be sold together to the one owner making the one residence, however, offers will be considered to split the two titles that can be sold separately.
Approximately one hour from Hobart, or one hour and forty-five minutes from Launceston, Bothwell sits on the Clyde River and is slightly elevated at 385m above sea level. Bothwell is a Lake District and is part of the Central Highlands Council. The area is known for hunting, the gateway to some of the best trout fishing in the country, Nant Whiskey Distillery and also home to the oldest running golf course in Australia, Ratho Farm. The township comprises a pub, post office, a couple of cafes and a general store.
This is an exciting opportunity that could present a lifestyle change for many. Contact Ben Vance for further information or to arrange your private inspection.
