Overview

The Shed Everyone Wants & the Lifestyle You've Been Chasing

Solid, welcoming and beautifully practical, this classic red brick home offers the kind of space and flexibility that's getting harder to find - especially this close to Launceston. The living area has a warm, relaxed feel with a beautiful sandstone fireplace creating a real focal point in the room, while the wood heater and reverse cycle heating keep the home comfortable right through the seasons. The kitchen is generous in size with plenty of cupboard storage and excellent bench space, making it easy for everyday living, family dinners or entertaining friends. The bathroom has been tastefully updated and includes a freestanding bath, separate shower and a vanity with great storage. All three bedrooms include built-in robes, and the separate toilet and laundry add extra practicality to the layout. Throughout the home, everything has been well cared for and maintained, giving it an instantly comfortable feel. The current owners have especially loved the peace and privacy here. Waking up to birdsong each morning gives the property a calm atmosphere that feels nicely removed from the busy pace of life, while still being only around 10 minutes from Launceston. One of the biggest drawcards is the incredible garage and workshop space. Large enough for several vehicles, it also includes a substantial extra area the current owners have made great use of as an indoor entertaining zone. With its own wood heater and loads of room to move, it's the sort of versatile setup that could suit anything from hobbies and projects to storage, gatherings or workspace needs. Two roller doors make access easy, and the sheer amount of usable space really sets this property apart. Adjacent to the garage is a large woodshed, keeping firewood neatly stored, dry and close at hand throughout winter. Adding even more appeal, the property also features solar panels to help with energy costs, a security system for added peace of mind, and town water for everyday convenience. This is the kind of property that offers genuine flexibility - comfortable living, excellent shedding and a peaceful setting, all within easy reach of the city.
