If you're an admirer of all things 'equine', enjoy the country life, fly-fishing on the river, wine making, orchard fresh-fruit, wide open spaces and the simple joys of being on the land... Then 'Roslyn' has all you could possibly desire. Actually, there's much more to this estate than just a few of the simpler pleasures of a life on the land.

To get a better understanding we have to rewind to 1823 where we find Mr George Weston-Gunning standing on a land Grant totalling 800 acres. Much of the original building work then was performed by convict labour, cutting local sandstone and manufacturing bricks by hand to create the impressive colonial architecture that is a signature of the property today.

Mr Weston-Gunning gave the property to his Step-Daughter [Eliza] as a wedding present in 1827. The property hosted a further six generations until the late 1980s where it finally passed for sale outside the family.

'Roslyn' comprises 72 acres spread over fertile river flats, Chardonnay vineyards, mature olive groves and carefully tended English gardens.

Developments to date have been extensive... costing in the millions. The buildings are heritage listed and combine an early colonial feel with the most discerning levels of modern luxury, featuring;

- Six bedrooms, four bathrooms
- Conservatory style kitchen
- Library, drawing room and music room
- Elegant formal lounge and dining rooms
- Indoor entertainment area
- Subterranean sandstone cellar
- In-ground, indoor swimming pool
- Under house stables
- Colonial style verandahs

In addition to the breathtaking homestead, the outbuildings include a convict brick stable complex, tack facilities, feed storage area, hay shed, 60 x 20 meter equestrian arena, convict brick workshop, machinery shed and sheep-shearing sheds.

The property offers a guaranteed 20 mega litres of water rights to the rich loam pastures. A marvellous opportunity exists for B&B operations plus many other business opportunities such as a gallery, wine tastings and wedding receptions.

The attraction of the Tasmanian country lifestyle is in all the simple pleasures that cost us nothing to experience but are so abundant on this magical island. Of course it helps to be able to enjoy the finer things along the way too.

It's our privilege to bring to you this opportunity to purchase 'Roslyn Estate' and become part of its legacy. Please forward enquiries to the team at Harcourts Northern Suburbs...
