45 Main Rd, Tunbridge might be the property of your dreams?
Right in the middle of the middle of Tasmania, it's an easy retreat from Hobart or Launceston. From there, it's a short drive to the highlands lakes for flyfishing; 10 minutes away to explore Ross or Oatlands; or, just enjoy the peace and tranquility of this stunning setting.
"This cottage has stories to tell, since it was built in 1870," said Steven Richardson, the real estate agent from @realty, who is selling the property for the owner.
"So many of its original features, like the shingle tiles under the iron roof or the stone chimneys, have been tastefully retained and integrated into what is a warm, cosy and inviting home," said Steve.
"Even the way the sunlight filters through the flowering vine on the bedroom window, is all part of its magic."
The home features a split-level living room with an open fireplace and a woodheater. The cathedral-style ceiling has the original shingles exposed, adding an historic feature and a hint to the past of this dwelling. A modern bathroom and kitchen ensure some up-to-date comforts. There's a loft space above the bedroom which offers the new owners an opportunity to apply their own imagination. And, there's a town water supply!
The established, landscaped gardens are sunny and private. A water feature and pond on the edge of the front verandah create another space to experience and enjoy.
"Tunbridge was surveyed as a town in the 1850s," said Dr Tony Stagg, a renowned Tasmanian Historian.
"It was a coaching stop from the early 1800's and some of the inns are still standing on the main street," said Dr Stagg.
"One of the original stagecoaches is still on display in the town," he said.
"It draw one's imagination back to a time when the coaches ran between Hobart and Launceston across the old bridge, which is one of the oldest remaining, single-lane bridges in Australia."
The property is being offered to the market complete with furniture.
"It's ready to have your first night in front of the open fire, when you pick up the keys," said Steven Richardson.
"It's easy to imagine enjoying the warmth and feeling of an open fire at night, or enjoying your morning coffee in the gardens with crisp sunlight," said Steve.
This property is available for inspection by appointment or at scheduled open homes.
