The old English garden upon the flat parcel of land is well-established, offering a lovely collection of trees and plants to sit and admire. Off-street parking at the side and rear of the property (via an all-weather gravel driveway), a lock-up single-car garage shed, and a garden shed offer storage options. Located at the northern end of the Church Street precinct of Ross, good neighbours surround 12 Church Street within a supportive local community. Steeped in a history of convict past, Ross attracts tourists and locals keen to explore the historical sandstone architecture of the Ross Bridge, Man 'O' Ross Hotel and surrounding buildings. Many visitors and locals walk along the banks of the Macquarie River, take in the clear country air, or cast a line to catch some trout. Ross has a collection of artisan stores that supports the general store/services station and post office. Ross is only a short ten-minute drive South of Campbell Town (11km) or a leisurely 50-minute' drive from Launceston and one hour and 20 minutes to Hobart, and bus services stop in the township daily. You can be at the East Coast beaches in a short one-hour drive. This period property offers plenty of opportunity to maintain its current use as a successful Bed and Breakfast or convert it into a comfortable home.
