Barnsley | 136 Years of History. One Extraordinary Future.

Some properties are defined by what they are. Others by what they could become.
Then there are properties like Barnsley, where the story already spans more than a century and the next chapter is yet to be written.
Prominently positioned at 81 Invermay Road, directly opposite UTAS Stadium, Barnsley is a substantial circa 1890 Victorian property combining history, scale, Local Business zoning and an increasingly significant inner-city location.
Built in triple brick and offering approximately 313m² of building across a level 524m² allotment, Barnsley retains remarkable reminders of its origins. Its original 1890 slate roof tiles remain in place, while soaring ceilings, generous proportions and period character speak to an era of craftsmanship rarely replicated today.
The property was named Barnsley by its original owner and builder, prominent Launceston butcher Henry John Hutchinson, who made the property his family residence. Its Launceston pedigree extends further, with construction attributed to renowned builders J & T Gunn, whose name remains visible on the intact cast-iron built-in stove in the kitchen.
For more than 136 years, Barnsley has adapted with the city around it.
The Launceston Historical Society records it as the only remaining residence on this section of Invermay Road between Lindsay and Forster Streets, a striking survivor now surrounded by commercial development.
Its history is wonderfully varied. From a grand private residence, Barnsley later operated as a restaurant before becoming the production kitchen for Tasmanian preserves company Johnno's Jams and Sauces in the early 2000s. Locals reportedly knew another batch was underway by the distinctive sweet vinegar aroma drifting across Invermay.
In more recent years, Barnsley has once again been a private residence; what happens next may be its most interesting chapter yet.
Zoned Local Business, the property presents considerable scope for an owner, investor or developer to explore its future. Reinvent the existing building for commercial, hospitality or professional use, investigate a mixed-use concept, or consider the longer-term development potential of the site, all subject to the necessary council approvals.
