Circa 1900, this home has typical Federation charm, with original character features and soaring 3.2m ceilings. At the same time, it boasts other features which many of us are seeking - contemporary bathrooms and kitchen, light-filled open plan spaces and a flexible floor plan.

A sense of scale and proportion are immediate upon entering thanks to a spacious formal foyer area.

There is a huge master bedroom with a stunning double ensuite that's set to impress, and a further three good sized bedrooms, all with built-ins. These are located close to a second well- appointed family bathroom.

The generous lounge can be separated from the dining area via tall bi-fold doors, or you can choose the open-plan option. Regardless, both areas get great light all-year-round - and excellent sun in winter - thanks to the large windows, external bi-folds and a north-east aspect.

The Galley-style kitchen is functional and streamlined, with Caesar-stone benches, breakfast bar, ample storage and select quality appliances (Smeg, Miele and Qasair).

Heating is split into two zones using reverse cycle inverter air conditioners.

The home is completed with quality carpets, window treatments and fittings. Dcor is neutral and would suit most furnishings.

The front of the property is private and secure courtesy of a 1.8m high fence and automated federation style gate.

The large and flat 962sqm block boasts established low maintenance park-like landscaping, including a variety of beautiful old roses and mature trees (and a range of fruit trees).

The rear yard design offers lots of opportunities to keep kids active and engaged all year round (they can be kept an eye on from the kitchen and dining area!), and also provides a private and peaceful retreat.

If room for multiple cars is needed, the front of the property has generous off-street parking for at least 4 cars.

Location-wise, the property is surrounded by other quality homes, and is just a 15 min walk to the city centre. Some of Launceston's best schools are very close by.

If you are after a realistically-priced, quality character home in a prime location that ticks all the boxes - this is the one.

The flexible floor plan and low maintenance grounds would suit families, professional couples or retirees.

It is unlikely to last long.

We believe this house will sell itself, but if you would prefer to inspect through another agent of your choice, we are happy to accommodate.
