Make this charming weatherboard cottage your own Central Highlands retreat.
Set within the historic former hydro village of Bronte Park, this beautifully updated cottage presents a rare opportunity to secure a piece of Tasmania's Central Highlands history. Established in the late 1940s to support the Hydro-Electric Scheme, Bronte Park later became a vibrant community and has evolved into a highly sought-after destination, renowned for its world-class fly fishing.
One of only around 20 original cottages remaining, Cottage 4 has been thoughtfully updated while retaining its timeless character. Recent improvements include a new kitchen, two-way bathroom, double-glazed windows, and new flooring throughout.
The home offers three generous bedrooms and a cosy open-plan modern kitchen and dining area, complemented by a large integrated laundry that doubles as a practical mud room-ideal after a day on the lakes or trails.
Year-round comfort is assured with a new freestanding wood heater and a reverse-cycle heat pump, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere in all seasons.
Step outside to the large covered and enclosed front deck, perfect for summer BBQs or relaxing while enjoying the abundant local wildlife, including wallabies, possums, echidnas, and wombats. The fully fenced, flat yard of approximately 1,088sqm includes a vegetable garden and provides excellent space and security. A single lock-up garage offers secure parking or additional storage.
The property is connected to mains power, water, and sewerage, ensuring modern convenience in this tranquil setting.
Bronte Park has hosted the World Fly Fishing Championships and is widely regarded as offering some of the best wild trout fishing in Australia. The well-stocked local shop is just a short stroll away, providing daily essentials and fishing supplies.
A truly rare opportunity to secure a peaceful retreat, lifestyle escape, or investment in one of Tasmania's most unique and tightly held locations.
