Overview

"Highgate House" - A Historic Cottage of Rare Distinction!

Known historically as "Highgate House", this remarkable residence is one of Westbury's earliest homes, dating back to 1839 and standing as a proud reminder of the town's colonial beginnings. Set behind a renowned façade, the home's enduring character and presence reflect a time when craftsmanship, proportion and permanence were paramount, with generations of local history woven into its walls. Positioned on a substantial 2,149sqm allotment zoned General Residential, the property offers not only a beautifully preserved double storey family home, but also genuine scope for future development (STCA). From the moment you arrive, the symmetry of the cottage frontage and its established setting create a sense of occasion rarely found today. Inside, the home unfolds across two levels and offers four well proportioned bedrooms, three of which include built in storage, while the fourth is enhanced by a charming fireplace mantel that speaks to the home's heritage. The main bathroom is located downstairs and includes a shower, bath, vanity and toilet, complemented by a separate additional toilet for everyday convenience. The kitchen is warm and inviting, rich with timber accents and generous storage, and is equipped with an oven, gas cooktop, rangehood and dishwasher, making it both practical and full of character. Multiple living zones flow throughout the home, allowing flexibility for families of all sizes, while a dedicated formal dining room provides the perfect space for entertaining or special occasions. Every room enjoys a connection to the magnificent grounds, with tranquil views over the expansive yard creating a sense of calm and privacy throughout the home. Comfort is assured year round with a reverse cycle system and a two woodfire heaters, while the laundry offers the practicality of direct external access. Outside, the artistry continues with a private, spacious and extensive garden where flowers and greenery thrive in full bloom. The grounds are open, flat and wonderfully usable, making them ideal for children, furry friends or simply enjoying the space and serenity on offer. Located in the heart of Westbury, this home is just moments from the town centre, primary school, village green and town common, placing everyday amenities and community life right at your doorstep. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains only 25 minutes from Launceston's CBD, offering an easy connection to the city while enjoying the charm of a historic country town.
