There is something undeniably special about a character home, and 19 Henry Street is a beautiful example of how old-world charm and modern-day comfort can come together perfectly.
Originally built in 1903 and positioned in one of Devonport's charming heritage areas, this gorgeous home underwent an extensive rebuild in 2016, bringing it beautifully into the modern era while retaining the character that makes homes of this period so loved.
The transformation was comprehensive, with new wiring, new plaster, fully insulated walls, underfloor and ceilings, re-stumping, a new Colorbond roof, new bathroom and a beautiful new kitchen. The result is a home that offers all the charm and personality of its original era, without compromising on the comforts and practicality expected today.
Step inside and you are immediately welcomed by the stunning original Tasmanian Oak floorboards, adding warmth and character throughout the home.
Three wonderfully generous bedrooms are reminiscent of the era in which the home was first built, each offering beautiful built-in robes and plenty of space to create relaxing, inviting retreats.
The living and dining spaces are equally charming, while the clever inclusion of a European laundry off the dining room makes excellent use of the available space without interrupting the home's beautiful presentation.
Outside, there is even more to love. A second toilet provides added convenience, while the separate approximately 4m x 3m studio offers a fantastic space for hobbies, creative pursuits, a home office or simply some extra room to call your own.
Set on a flat block, there is also plenty of room to explore the possibility of adding a large shed or garage, subject to the relevant approvals.
From the moment you arrive, the street appeal is simply gorgeous. The beautiful bullnose verandah and original wrought iron fencing immediately capture the charm of the home and give you a glimpse of what awaits beyond the front gate.
And then there is the location.
Positioned just a short stroll from the Devonport CBD, you can easily enjoy the wonderful restaurants, cafés, shopping and conveniences the city has to offer. Devonport's brilliant coastal walking tracks are also just moments away, giving you easy access to kilometres of picturesque pathways that wind their way along the coastline of Tasmania's beautiful North West Coast.
Charming, beautifully restored and wonderfully located, 19 Henry Street offers the opportunity to enjoy the character of a home from another era with all the modern luxuries of today.
