Jess Christmas, last sold this property on 22 February 2016 after 60 days on market.

Overview

AUCTION: 11th FEB @ 6PM ON-SITE

Superb example of 1870's,quite possibly earlier, architecture featuring a beautiful two storey facade with an interesting combination of cast iron and wooden balustrades. An inspection reveals Baltic pine floorboards,open fire places,and a lovely feature staircase ascending to three rooms and a second bathroom. Accessed from the upstairs front room is a superb veranda with with exquisite views over the cityscape towards the gorge. A complete renovation is in order here but with so many original features intact your blood sweat and tears will be rewarded with interest. The compact cottage garden at the rear offers so many possibilities with the depth of your imagination the only obstacle. The ownership history of 149 George Street is a colourful and interesting tapestry beginning with the original owner George Anderson an enterprising chap recognised for discovering the first payable gold mine in Tasmania at Lefroy, or Mary Page a highly respected artist,naturalist and illustrator. In the early 1970's it was owned by Max Oldaker a Tasmanian stage actor who made it all the way to Drury Lane London performing opposite Julie Andrews in My Fair Lady. We think this very interesting home is a Fair Lady too!
