49 Garthfield Avenue, Cygnet TAS 7112

Rumoured to be one of the very first homes built in the Cygnet township, Garthfield House is still one of the most prominent and visually appealing properties in the area almost 150 years after construction.
Proudly positioned to command the rise, the expansive views available include Port Cygnet Bay to the South, the pristine paddocks to the North and all of the natural beauty in between.

The renovations done over the years at Garthfield house have been sympathetic to its era and the key characteristics still remain. High ceilings in each room as well as decorative archways and open fireplaces in two of the bedrooms are a few examples of the traditional beauty of the interior.

The kitchen and dining area open plan with a fairly recent addition of a Homestead Cooker wood stove. This stove, a stunning design feature in its own right, offers an electric backup for convenience but allows for traditional wood fired cooking and spreads heat through the home as well.

The main source of warmth, aside from the Northerly aspect from the living room, is the slow combustion heater in the centrally located lounge area. French doors open off this room and provide access to the large timber decking, ideal for an easy flow while entertaining.

The bathroom provides the luxury of underfloor heating and a corner spa while keeping in style with late 1800s fashion.

Outside youll find just as many outstanding features; as well as the carport, woodshed, potting shed and workshop space, youll be enchanted by the century old magnolia and well established productive gardens. A variety of fruit trees capture the northerly sun and the rest of the gardens have been planted to suit their aspect, with rainwater tanks and pump to keep them watered.

The home is fitted with a 4.5kw solar system, solar hot water and NBN. Full town services are available and a 5 minute stroll will see you in the heart of the Cygnet Township.
