22 York Street

Launceston TAS 7250

Many special events have been held at the home and enjoyed by family and guests alike, taking full advantage of the varied entertaining spaces that include a front hall, sitting room, large library, family room, formal dining room and a magnificent music room with outdoor verandah nearby.
From all that the house offers to the terraced gardens with mature trees and shrubs and advanced conifers, tennis court and pavilion, and croquet lawn, it is a special house and garden. This idyllic setting has been a magical place for the family for four generations.

Sitting on 4388sqm over 2 titles, there are opportunities for development especially as the 2nd title is considered one of Launceston's last remaining vacant blocks, with potential scope and uninterrupted views. As the property is zoned inner residential any development would be subject to STCA approval. Whether this property continues as a family home or is developed in some other way, it will always remain a valuable part of Launceston's history.

The two (2) titles comprising 22 York St are being offered for sale at the same time as the adjoining 17a Brisbane St, Launceston. Both properties are owned by the same family and are available for sale individually or as a group. Expressions of interest close on Wednesday 5th October at 5pm. A full prospectus will be available on request. Inspections strictly by prior appointment
