This cottage is undoubtedly in one of Launceston’s most convenient lifestyle locations.
Within 5 minutes walk you have the choice of 2 corner stores, a newsagent and the Black Forest deli or AFL at Aurora Stadium.
Within 10 minutes walk you reach The Seaport with numerous bars and restaurants for waterfront dining, the Inveresk Art Gallery and museum and most importantly Launceston’s CBD !. All this an easy level walk unlike most of the central suburbs which are a steep walk.
On weekends you can walk from your front door to a walking track on the banks of the North Esk river in under 2 minutes. From here you can simply follow the path to Launcestons iconic Cateract Gorge via the Seaport for a coffee. On the way back stop in at the Harvest Market to pick up fresh produce. The location has so much to offer for those who embrace a more relaxed lifestyle. So leave your cars in the adequate off street parking , get fit and enjoy life !
This cottage is located in a quite street with friendly neighbours. Some years back locals started to recognise the benefits of the location and most of the cottages are now fully renovated. Goodwin Street is basically as it was over a hundred years ago with all of the original houses remaining.
This home is one of the larger cottages in the street and was constructed in 1905 .
It is a cottage to be enjoyed year round. In the warmer months you can relax in the fragrant cottage courtyard garden which is accessed through north facing French doors from the lounge room. Herb and vegetable beds adjacent to the kitchen allow you to enjoy good home grown food with friends. A covered seating area in the courtyard helps keep out of the sun and is great for entertaining.
In the cooler months a large slow combustion heater keeps the house toasty warm and provides a relaxed heart to the home.
Two of the 3 three bedrooms have built in robes and the rooms are generously proportioned.
The north facing lounge room streams in light through the french doors .
The bathroom and kitchen are neat and tidy.
Should you be conscious of future needs to extend it is comforting to know that the house has a huge roof space with ample area for an extension upstairs, by far the cheapest way to extend.
A carport down the driveway keeps your car out of the weather and there is further parking for another 2 cars.
This has been a home not a rental property so it is well presented. However if you are after a rental property keep in mind that the Mowbray Uni campuses are being relocated to Inveresk and there will soon be high demand for rental accommodation. Other 3 bedroom cottages close by are already achieving over $350 per week which represents over 7% return.
Either way this home represents a great lifestyle with excellent prospects for capital growth being so close to the CBD.
