Nestled amongst other historic homes, this timeless circa 1840 property, known as "Daisy's Cottage", has immense street appeal and offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Tasmanian history.
Thoughtfully renovated to honour its heritage, this gem exudes charm and character of its vintage. Original features such as original convict bricks, original sandstone steps, floorboards and even an original jail cellar turned wine cellar remain focal pieces of this home, creating a stunning property that is both a nod to the past and a beautiful home for modern living.
Two bedrooms situated at the front of the home benefit from newly installed built-in robes set either side of the original fireplaces.
The cosy main living area is spacious and practical with a new wood heater, as well as reverse cycle A/C for convenience. The owners of this property love how no matter the temperature outside, the home's internal bricks ensure year-round comfort, retaining heat in winter and coolness in summer.
A manual opening skylight placed over the middle of the room offers natural light as well as added airflow.
Adjacent to the lounge room, the kitchen is superb; with slate tiles, pressed tin detailing and timber benchtops. Modern amenities such as a large freestanding Westinghouse oven and cooktop and ample storage space, while the dining room overlooks the garden.
The classic bathroom is spacious with a refurbished claw foot bath; while the laundry room is equally as spacious.
A true gardeners and entertainer's delight, the garden has been a labour of love over the years. Low maintenance, yet beautiful; offering a huge amount of space (982m2 approx. total land size) and privacy. Garden features include: A fire pit, woodfired pizza oven, fish pond, enclosed veggie gardens, fruit trees including plum, lemon, apple and blueberry bushes, and garden/wood shed.
A separate bungalow situated in the garden has been used by our current owners as an entertaining space. We can also see it being the ultimate retreat to relax with a book and a cuppa. Adjacent to this space is a studio/3rd bedroom.
Offering a huge amount of open and enclosed storage for both vehicles and household items, there are several carports and sheds to choose from.
Recent external improvements include a new Colorbond roof, ceiling insulation, re-wired electrical and a new semi-enclosed carport with a roller door.
This property truly is something special and must be seen to be truly appreciated.
