14 Stoke St, New Town TAS 7008

Originally the Gatehouse for Stoke House, this Victorian Rustic Gothic cottage has been standing proud since 1860, and is finally available to purchase after nearly 50 years of being owned by previous owners of Stoke House. Set on around 764 sqm of land, this gorgeous cottage is sited forward on the plot to allow space for a potential extension or construction on the land at the rear subject to both Council and Tasmanian Heritage Council approvals of course.

Located in one of the most sought-after streets in New Town with Friends School, Hill Street Grocer, North Hobart restaurant strip and Calvary Hospital all within walking distance, this cottage really is central, less than 8 minutes drive to the City and a city bus at the front door.

Modernised over the past 18 years to include a separate practical kitchen, contemporary bathroom incorporating the laundry, and ducted electric central heating and gas hot water, you could just move in and enjoy the historic ambience and 1860s character of what could be your next home.

Decorative bargeboards, finial, handsawn external weatherboards and timber flooring, and gabled and hipped roof forms are distinctive features of the era that make this property both unique and historical.

A sliding gate provides access for off street parking into the cottage garden, fenced directly around the home for a dog or young children. The clear yard at the rear of the cottage is virtually level, incredibly private and offers a rare opportunity to explore exciting options for what can be done to further extend or develop this space further whilst you live in the cottage. A fabulous chance to secure your place in Tasmanian history and become the proud owner of The Gatehouse.
