Last Listing description (January 2020)
Iconic Tasmania - Pristine Heritage
From the moment you turn through the crisp white entry gates into "Palmerston House" you know the formal topiary lined drive will lead to something special. The curved drive meanders through several gateways until you reach the grand homestead - in an idyllic setting - secreted amongst tall trees and manicured hedge rows. An "escape to the country" dream property that could have leapt straight from the pages of "Country Style".
This period masterpiece is recognised for "the sympathetic blending of styles from three (historic) architectural periods" - the original Georgian cottage having been extended with an imposing Edwardian era addition. The property exudes charm and history and retains a wealth of character and originality. Features include:
- Polished original wide Baltic pine floor boards
- Cedar doors, window reveals and skirtings
- Porcelain finger plates on doors
- Imposing staircase with feature dome shaped window with coloured glass at the landing.
- Timber fire surrounds from both eras
- Magnificent formal lounge for grand entertaining or events
- Decorated in elegant period style and carefully chosen colours compatible with the original architecture.
The extensive floor plan provides:
- A spacious reception room/library
- Sitting room and drawing room of large proportions
- Guest bedroom with ensuite
- Intimate study/TV room
- Formal dining room plus casual breakfast room
- Farmhouse style kitchen with store room and scullery.
- Upstairs provides a further 5 bedrooms, loads of storage and access to the quirky rooftop "lookout".
The stunning English style surrounds cover approx. 9 acres and feature an arbor of rare specimen trees, productive home orchard, rustic gardeners cottage, numerous outbuildings, tennis court, large pond, and a magnificent glassed pool house. All this has been developed with passion, care and an unerring eye for detail over some 30 years.
The property is located in Tasmania's rural heartland just 10 minutes from local services and some 45 minutes to the regional city of Launceston and airport.
The Vendor has realistic expectations and would love to negotiate a walk in walk out transaction complete with all period furniture and plant and equipment.
Opportunity is calling the next privileged custodian of "Palmerston House" to take the property on the next phase of this historic journey.
Inspections strictly by appointment.
