There's something about a solid 1950s home that just feels right. Built in 1956, when craftsmanship mattered and houses were designed to last, this honest two bedroom home at 13 Newman Street offers around 100m² of well built living with the kind of bones you rarely see today. It's the sort of place that quietly tells its own story - original timber floorboards in many rooms and the reassuring feel of a home that has stood the test of time.
Set in a quiet pocket of St Marys with very little passing traffic, the property enjoys a peaceful position while still being an easy walk to the town's shops, services and the famous local bakery. Elevated on the block, the home captures a pleasant outlook across the township and out toward the impressive Ben Lomond ranges - a view that reminds you why country living in Tasmania has such enduring appeal.
Inside, the home is comfortable and practical. There are two bedrooms plus a welcoming sunroom that provides additional space to relax, read, or simply enjoy the morning light. The bathroom has been tastefully updated in recent years, while the kitchen offers good functionality and includes space for the laundry. Much of the home retains its original character, and while the exterior weatherboards would benefit from a fresh coat of paint, the foundations are here for someone with an eye for potential to bring it beautifully back to life.
One of the real highlights is the recently added colourbond garage - a substantial space with room for two vehicles and plenty of additional area for a workshop, tools or hobbies. For many buyers, this sort of space alone will be a major drawcard.
The grounds are well established and thoughtfully maintained, with a fully fenced yard providing privacy and practicality. Fruit trees grow in abundance, offering the simple pleasure of harvesting from your own garden, while a 14 panel solar system helps keep power costs down.
The property is being offered walk in walk out.
For buyers looking for a solid home with character, space to tinker, and the satisfaction of bringing something authentic back to life, this is an opportunity well worth considering so please contact Heidi Howe and her team at Harcourts St Helens today to arrange a time to view in person.
