Nestled in the tranquil township of Gormanston, Tasmania, this beautifully restored five-bedroom home is a perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience. As you approach the property, the large veranda invites you to take in the serene surroundings before stepping through the front door into an expansive hallway. The wide halls and high ceilings immediately evoke a sense of grandeur, while the reverse cycle air conditioner ensures comfort year-round.
The red-painted floorboards guide you through the home, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Each of the five bedrooms is generously sized, with the high ceilings characteristic of the era. The fifth bedroom, currently used as a workshop, offers the flexibility to be transformed into a cozy retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe or a study.
The heart of the home is the renovated kitchen, where updated fixtures and electric cooking meet picturesque views of the surrounding mountain ranges. The kitchen also cleverly integrates the laundry appliances under the benchtop, allowing you to stay indoors during rainy weather.
Two separate living spaces offer versatile options for relaxation or entertaining, with one room featuring an additional reverse cycle air conditioner. These spaces can be opened up to create an even larger living area if desired. The bathroom, fully tiled, includes a shower-over-bath setup, marrying functionality with classic style.
Stepping out onto the large timber deck, you'll be captivated by the breathtaking views of Mt. Lyell. It's a sight that truly must be experienced in person. The property also boasts a 6 x 6m double garage at the rear, providing secure parking, along with an additional roller door under the deck that offers space for another vehicle. For extra storage you have a garden shed, and the 25,000lt water tank is located next to this.
The outdoor area has been thoughtfully designed, with a converted outhouse now serving as a storage room, and an adjacent room currently used as a music studio-ready to be adapted for any purpose you desire. The designated laundry space is conveniently located outside, and a small creek, Linda Creek, runs along the right side of the house, adding to the peaceful ambiance with the soothing sound of flowing water. The final icing on the cake is that there are 16 x solar panels on the property, creating an energy efficient household for anyone!
Whether you're seeking a permanent residence or a peaceful retreat, this historic home in Gormanston offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Tasmanian history with all the comforts of modern living.
