Last Listing description (June 2026)

Nestled on approximately 7,206m of flat, fully fenced land, this charming 1880-built character cottage offers the perfect blend of country lifestyle, space and modern convenience, all just moments from the heart of Campbell Town.

Rich in warmth and character, the home has undergone extensive upgrades over the years, including being fully rewired and replumbed, while still maintaining the cozy charm you would expect from a home of this era.

At the heart of the home sits the inviting formal living and dining area, creating a warm and welcoming space for family gatherings. The living room features a reverse cycle air conditioner, ensuring year-round comfort, while the light-filled dining space is generously sized and easily accommodates a large family dining table.

The country-style kitchen offers excellent bench space and storage, complete with beautiful timber cabinetry and a traditional combustion stove that perfectly complements the home's rustic charm.

Originally the front veranda, the enclosed sunroom provides an incredibly versatile space that could serve as a second living area, home office, reading room or hobby space while capturing lovely natural light throughout the day.

Both bedrooms are generously sized, while the updated bathroom features a large shower, floating floors and also cleverly incorporates the laundry space.

Outside, the property truly comes into its own. The expansive block offers endless lifestyle opportunities, whether you are dreaming of a hobby farm, horses, a few cows, vegetable gardens or simply space for the family to enjoy. Beautiful established trees create a stunning backdrop, especially throughout the autumn months.

Practicality is also well covered with a large 12m x 6m shed, workshop area, four garage spaces, multiple external storage options and even a bird aviary.

Conveniently located just a two-minute drive from the Campbell Town township, the property offers easy access to everyday amenities while still enjoying the peace and privacy of country living. Positioned approximately 45 minutes from Launceston and 1 hour 20 minutes from Hobart, this is an outstanding opportunity to secure a lifestyle property in a tightly held area.
