"Olive House" is a beautifully preserved 1937 Art Deco–inspired Californian home that blends timeless character with modern comfort and thoughtful design. The double-level weatherboard home offers warmth, space, and flexibility, perfectly suited to family living or those seeking a home with guest accommodation potential.
The main level features three generous bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of which are ensuites, providing convenience for both family and guests. A separate formal living area is located at the front of the home, while the open-plan kitchen, dining, and second living space sit at the rear, opening directly onto the covered back deck – an ideal space for entertaining. The layout was designed to facilitate separate front and back living zones, and a successful BnB was previously operated from the property, making it an excellent opportunity for those considering a similar setup.
Upstairs, the fourth bedroom offers flexibility as a study or rumpus room. From this level, enjoy sweeping views over Launceston and the distant peaks of Ben Lomond.
Comfort is assured year-round with ducted app-controlled heating and cooling, offering individual room zoning and a fully insulated ceiling. The fireplace in the main lounge remains functional and can easily be reinstated, having only been sealed for use during BnB operation. Modern upgrades include a new Smeg gas cooktop with electric oven, a new high-volume gas hot water system, a smart front door, and a full home security system.
Outdoors, the property continues to impress with a single-car garage, large shed for storage, and a level, fully fenced, and well-maintained yard. Established fruit trees including apple, olive, grape, and cherry varieties, add to the charm and self-sufficiency of the home.
Situated close to excellent schools and less than eight minutes from the Launceston CBD, "Olive House" offers the perfect combination of period elegance, modern comfort, and location convenience.
