This gorgeous old home dates back to 1884. Known as 'Huondene', this is as classic as they come. Packed with original features, this one really captures the look and feel of a by-gone-era. We are right in the heart of the historic and wonderfully community spirited, riverside town of Franklin. Everything in town is a short level walk. There are a few cafes, restaurants and gift shops as well as a fabulous organic shop. Down the other way is 'Village Antiques', housed in the old bank building which was then a hospital amongst other things. The local post office also serves a good coffee. And the river, well, that is a huge appeal. With the local oval right out front, you are sure to never get built out.
Back in the day, most of the houses along the main street also ran a business from out front, something that is still possible today due to the zoning (stca). Years ago, this one had a doctor's surgery in the front rooms, amongst other things in its time. Now the whole house is a comfortable home. The ground level provides 3 bedrooms and a cosy lounge within the front 4 rooms, each with period features such as ornate fire places, lead-light windows and high ceilings. Back then, homes of this era didn't have kitchens and bathrooms inside and so these were added on at some point. The kitchen/dining here was smartly done to perfectly maintain the essence of the period. It comes complete with slate floors and a walk in larder/pantry ideal for the jams and preserves and the wine cellar as well as the dry store. A family bathroom and the laundry are located down on this level too.
Off the lounge, the old staircase takes you up to the master bedroom suite. The staircase was removed many owners ago and this room was not used for years, that is before the actual staircase was recently recovered nearby and reinstated. Up here the space is fun. The ceilings are all angled and remind you that you are in the old attic. The spacious bedroom is on one side and the dressing room with an ensuite bathroom is on the other. Cleverly done, the shower recess is in the dormer window, providing great views of the garden and hills as you shower. The dormer windows on the other side allow for views out to the beautiful Huon River.
