This magnificent Georgian home, situated just a short stroll from restaurants, shops, schools and the beautiful Derwent River and Esplanade, is not only a glorious family home but ideally situated to be developed into a reception venue, B&B or private hotel. Beautiful gardens with winding paths, an arbour, lily pond and many private nooks overlook the Derwent.
Though on the main tourist route between Hobart, thirty minutes away, and the West Coast of Tasmania, privacy is assured by a high stone wall which completely conceals the property from the street. Magnificent heritage listed trees offer only a glimpse of the home from the esplanade and river bordering the property. The land has two titles with a total area of 5731m2 with potential for a separate development opportunity.
The home is 363m2 on the upper level with approximately 200m2 on the lower level.
The upper floor includes a magnificent reception room, sitting room, family dining and kitchen, two bathrooms and three bedrooms all opening from a stunning hallway with fluted cedar arches. The view over the garden to the river is stunning.
Original flagstone flooring and convict brick walls are intriguing features of the lower floor in what was originally the servants’ quarters. Accommodation on this level includes a guest room and two bedrooms. There is also a library, the original kitchen and scullery.
New Norfolk is a thirty minute commute to Hobart.
