15-17 Waterloo Cres, Battery Point is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 1 parking spaces and was built in 1845. The property has a land size of 867m2 and floor size of 192m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in October 2016.
Classified by the National Trust and on the Tasmanian Heritage Register, 15 & 17 Waterloo Crescent, Battery Point are indeed beautiful properties which will appeal to those seeking a home of historical significance. It seems likely that the 2 cottages were originally 3, built in or around 1842 for people working in the boat-building industry which was located in Battery Point at the waterfront slip yards.
Currently on one Title, potential exists for the cottages to be opened up into 1 single residence or alternatively, left as 2 separate cottages. Some preliminary work has been completed for potential stratum title (STCA).
The property is surrounded by a surprisingly large, breathtakingly beautiful Edna Walling style garden. Paths meander through the garden beds and spectacular botanical delights which include an English oak tree (grown from an acorn) and an incredible crab-apple tree. The garden has been specifically planted to ensure a constantly changing array of plants are in leaf or flower during the differing seasons.
The larger cottage (number 15), comprises 2-3 bedrooms together with spacious, open plan kitchen/living and a lovely outdoor entertainment area which flows into the sunny garden. Particular attention has been given to ensuring the historic charm of the era has been honoured and you will appreciate the Baltic pine ceilings together and walls featuring hundreds of convict bricks. The bedrooms are spacious and the bathroom is modern and tasteful, whilst still maintaining a sympathetic sense of history. Downstairs, is a substantial storage area, with lots of windows for natural light, and a convict brick feature wall.
Number 17 is a 1 bedroom cottage with separate living, modern amenities and a quaint courtyard.
This is a rare and distinctive offering and we would be delighted to show you through on a personal inspection. Please contact Michael or Jill to arrange a time.
