The rich period integrity of HIGHBURY has been carefully conserved and preserved since the Federation era origins of its construction by renowned builder J & T Gunn for Charles Metz, MHA. Subsequently the home of Mayor Frank Boatwright, this evocative, elegant residence occupies a significant place in the life and times of Launceston.
Immediately identifiable external aesthetics create a memorable prelude to spaces where originality, personality and possibility form a compelling combination. An elevated entrance introduces a spectacular series of period rooms for living, dining and enjoying that feature soaring, ornate ceilings, polished floorboards and open fire-places.
The presence of two bedrooms, a central bathroom and classically capable kitchen further distinguish the first floor proportions of this landmark property while the equally captivating upstairs level delivers the flexibility of up to five further bedrooms. An additional kitchen, second bathroom and adaptable dining and bedroom emphasize the sheer scale of HIGHBURY as they also confirm a wonderful opportunity to contribute contemporary excellence to the traditional character of the home.
Previously modernized, entirely liveable and accompanied by substantial ground level rumpus, storage or workshop spaces, a garden backdrop offering the option of secure car parking complements HIGHBURY and its exceptional position close to Arbour Park, The Brickfields.
Outstanding views, stunning details and grand dimensions make this address as irresistible as it is irreplaceable.
