Impeccably maintained – over 110 years of history
Boasting over 110 years of history, this home is a true Tasmanian treasure, seamlessly blending timeless character with modern comfort. Beautifully maintained inside and out, the home features period details throughout that highlight the elegance and craftsmanship of its era, while offering contemporary updates to suit today’s lifestyles.
The current owner/occupier, who has enjoyed almost ten years of comfortable living in convenient Glenorchy, is moving to the mainland and hopes that the much-loved house will become a home for a family who will enjoy its period charms and cosy character.
The heart of the home is the beautifully updated kitchen, which exudes modern appeal without compromising the charm of the original design. A spacious walk-in pantry adds practicality and storage. There is room for a small informal dining table in the kitchen, or, flowing seamlessly through to the living area, the space can easily accommodate larger gatherings and family meals while also having ample space for lounging and relaxation.
The spacious main bedroom features a charming bay window, inviting streams of natural light, as well as an elegant open fireplace with heritage-tiled hearth. The three other bedrooms are generously-sized, two also including an open fireplace. A sunroom offers a bright and airy retreat, ideal as a study, reading nook or space for quiet relaxation. The bathroom has also been tastefully renovated to preserve the home’s original charm while providing modern comforts.
The flat, fully-fenced yard is beautifully landscaped with stunning cottage-style gardens, while a generous concrete area offers the ideal setting for entertaining, barbecues, or relaxed outdoor dining. There’s plenty of room for children to play safely, and the large timber shed includes a sink and toilet, making it a versatile space that could be used as a workshop, man cave, teenager’s retreat, or potentially developed further (STCA). Two additional garden sheds provide extra storage. Adding to the home’s practicality, the property offers secure, easy-access parking.
Situated in the vibrant suburb of Glenorchy, this home offers the perfect combination of charm, convenience and proximity to local schools. Northgate Shopping Centre is just a short walk or drive away, public transport is close by, and the CBD is less than a 20-minute commute. With its unique blend of heritage character, modern updates, and lifestyle appeal, this home provides an exceptional opportunity to secure a slice of history.
