One particular icon, though now demolished, was Luckman Mill and was built by James Luckman directly behind this home. This mill was eventually purchased by James Cowgill, however it was retired in 1890. During the demolition of the mill, the convict bricks of the main structure were repurposed and fashioned into what is now the left hand side wall at the rear of the home.

At street frontage, one is met with the beauty of the cottage's quaint verandah and picket fence reflecting the character and charm of its era. Hand carved 200 year old timber boards and original penal colony convict bricks feature inside and play an integral part in retaining the historical significance of this home which has only recently undergone a carefully considered restoration, renovation and upgrade.

A contemporary yet classic style kitchen flows effortlessly through to the dining and outdoor entertainment spaces, forming what is essentially the social hub of the home.
This fusion between original leadlight as well as modern glass windows has perfectly complimented this home, certainly enhancing the view out to the courtyard and its accompanying verdant garden.

Towards the rear of the home, an additional and new second storey awaits casting views across to the River Derwent, as well as the iconic rooftops of the surrounding area. Today, the property stands as one of Battery Point and Hobart's finest examples of what life was like for the residence of Old Hobart Town.
