ORIGINALLY BUILT IN THE 1950'S THIS PROPERTY HAS UNDERGONE RECENT RENOVATIONS BRINGING ADDED COMFORT TO THE HOME YET STILL KEEPING IT IN CHARACTER WITH THE COASTAL SEASIDE AREA. EXTENSIVE DECKING HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE HOUSE OFFERING A REFRESHING OUTDOORS AREA TO ENTERTAIN, STRIKE UP THE BBQ OR JUST RELAX AND ADMIRE THE OCEAN VIEWS. THE LIVING AREAS ARE ON THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE HOUSE AND THE LARGE WINDOWS ALLOW PLENTY OF SUN TO LIGHT UP AND WARM THIS AREA WELL INTO THE LATE AFTERNOON. THE HOUSE EQUIPPED WITH ITS OWN BAR WILL CERTAINLY ENTICE FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO DROP IN ON A REGULAR BASIS AND THERE IS NO SHORTAGE OF SLEEPING QUARTERS WITH 2 BEDROOMS UPSTAIRS (MAIN WITH EN-SUITE) AND A STUDY WHICH COULD MAKE DO AS A THIRD BEDROOM AND THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER 2 BEDROOMS DOWNSTAIRS WHICH I THINK THE KIDS WOULD CLAIM AS THEIR OWN. THE KITCHEN AND BATHROOM HAVE ALSO BEEN UPDATED AND A LARGE FREE STANDING WOODHEATER TAKING PRIDE OF PLACE HAS BEEN CENTRALLY INSTALLED KEEPING THE WHOLE HOUSE COSY AND WARM ON THOSE COOLER DAYS AND NIGHTS. THE HOUSE IS SET ON A 1012M2, FULLY FENCED BLOCK WITH A LARGE YARD FOR THE CHILDREN & PETS TO PLAY SAFELY.

CONVENIENTLY LOCATED, THE TOWNSHIP OF GEORGE TOWN IS ONLY A 15 MINUTE DRIVE FROM THE PROPERTY AND THE CITY OF LAUNCESTON IS ONLY 45 MINUTES AWAY. THERE IS A SCHOOL BUS RUN WHICH TAKES STUDENTS TO NEARBY GEORGE TOWN.
