Steeped in history and restored with precision, this remarkable property at 61 Wellington Street is a masterclass in heritage renewal. Behind its refreshed Victorian façade lies a home that beautifully blends period craftsmanship with thoughtful modern upgrades is a testament to quality, care, and timeless design.
Approved by both Heritage Tasmania and NMC, the restoration respects the building's origins while enhancing everyday comfort. From the reinstated original shopfront to the custom Victorian door (c.1870) and meticulously restored hardware throughout, every detail reflects a dedication to authenticity.
Inside, a fresh and cohesive aesthetic flows throughout, with new lighting, switchboards, and internal wiring complementing the historic bones of the home. Panel heating ensures comfort in every room, while two newly installed fireplaces create inviting focal points in the main living areas. The layout allows flexibility for dual residential or mixed-use zoning, offering scope for those seeking a home with character or a stylish commercial space.
At the heart of the home, the bespoke kitchen and Joinery transforms the original shop counter into a striking island bench. Premium appliances, including a 900mm pyrolytic oven, induction cooktop and smart rangehood, cater to the home chef in style. From the master suite's built-in cabinetry and refined bathroom finishes to the practical mudroom and updated laundry, every inch of this home has been reimagined for contemporary living within a historic shell.
Beyond the interiors, the rejuvenation continues. The freshly painted exterior, natural stone-look tiled patio and automated front gate elevate both functionality and appeal. The roof and guttering have been replaced and insulated, with aluminium guards fitted for longevity, while moisture barrier treatments protect the internal masonry walls for years to come.
Positioned within the charming township of Longford, known for its boutique stores, heritage streetscape, and relaxed village atmosphere. This property offers not only a beautifully restored home, but also a lifestyle steeped in heritage and convenience. The historic Church grounds opposite act like an extension of your leisure space, one feature treasured by the current owners.
