Nestled among the upper echelon of Launceston property on the prestigious Adelaide Street, this grand family residence embodies the ornate essence of the Georgian era, offering perfectly preserved interior spaces combined with a contemporary transformation complimented by panoramic city views.
The commanding façade stands proudly set beyond established, high-walled gardens. Occupying an exclusive corner position located in immediate proximity to all amenities, including the Launceston CBD.
Built in C1850 by James Bennell, the opulence and grandeur are immediately on display featuring immaculately preserved period elements including intricate timber elements, polished flooring, and soaring ceilings.
The open-plan kitchen, living, and dining boast serene views and extend effortlessly to a sun-drenched side deck and a garden patio, ideal for entertaining within an intimate setting. A gourmet kitchen, reimagined for modern family life, is fully equipped with premium appliances, ample storage, and generous stone countertops, including an island bench with extra seating options.
Accommodation is extensive, with up to five generous bedrooms thoughtfully positioned across the home. The master suite, located on the main floor, features a walk-in wardrobe and renovated ensuite with a freestanding bath. The two first-floor bedrooms each enjoy elevated views and private walk-in dressing rooms. The residence is well-serviced with well-appointed bathrooms on all levels.
For entertainment and leisure, the lower ground floor presents a superb multipurpose space, complete with a built-in bar area and a dedicated billiard room. A captivating loft tower crowns the residence, offering breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views across Launceston.
Encased in a lush, private oasis, the grounds are beautifully landscaped, with a tranquil courtyard framed by verdant greenery, including mature trees and manicured hedging, along with impeccably maintained lawn areas.
Fully fenced and gated grounds enhance security and exclusivity. A single and a double garage provide additional convenience and housing for numerous vehicles, and additional off-street parking is available within the rear driveway, a rarity to find in this area.
Occupying a coveted position within a highly desirable East Launceston enclave, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Launceston's history. Landmark homes of this calibre, this close to the CBD are a rarity and seldom come to market.
