25 Franklin Street, Richmond TAS 7025

'Franklin Cottage' is a charming circa 1840s convict brick abode that seamlessly combines appealing original Georgian features with sensitively implemented contemporary updates, culminating in an impressive heritage home without compromise on comfort. Desirably located in sought-after Richmond Village, just 400 metres from the infamous Richmond Bridge, steeped in history this is an outstanding opportunity to buy into this tightly held locale.

The floorplan accommodates multiple living areas with a sitting room, dining room and sunny north facing atrium bathed in natural light and offering a warm and inviting space that is particularly appealing throughout the winter months. The tastefully renovated kitchen will appeal to the home chef, with bespoke joinery and quality Miele appliances. Three bedrooms are serviced by two upgraded bathrooms. Original fireplaces, timber floorboards and brickwork enhance the ambience of the home, whilst electric heating, double glazing, insulation, NBN connection, recent painting throughout and upgraded plumbing, roofing and wiring bring modern amenity to the property.

Outside the cottage is surrounded by a picturesque and productive garden attracting local birdlife. With raised vegetable plots and a berry patch, the sheltered courtyard offers the perfect spot to relax and entertain family and friends outdoors. A garden shed with mezzanine level offers capacious storage and off street parking for two vehicles is accommodated for in the driveway.

An easy stroll from the cafes, shops and amenities of Richmond Village, the next custodians of Franklin Cottage will enjoy a relaxed lifestyle living in a piece of Tasmania's early history that is still an easy commute to Hobart's CBD and airport.
