Here is an opportunity that you won't want to pass you by. Finally ''Waimarie'' opens the doors and is on the market. This sublime residence in Trevallyn sits on a quarter acre block in the well know historic plot known as the'' Strawberry Patch''.
Built in the early 1900's for Gordon L. Creasey . This property has only changed hands once every generation and has been lovingly cared for by its few owners to date. Stylish and sympathetic additions have been added to the building over the past ten years creating additional rooms that showcase some of the original features of the home. This home offers three living areas one a beautiful Orangery, this room is certainly a stunning first impression as you enter the property from the spectacular gardens. This magnificent room gives you the feeling of open space with the pitched ceiling and double glazed windows. The second living area is a formal room with gorgeous 14 foot ceilings and original fire place and French doors opening onto the verandah. On the second level is the third living area. This is part of an addition to the home that also hosts two of the five bedrooms and one of the three bathrooms. This second level has a contemporary feel and offers breath taking views of the mountains and beyond. The stair case is one of the many features designed by renowned timber crafts man Alfred Bushinger. Alfred's work is sampled throughout the property showcasing Tasmanian timbers such as Celery Top Pine joinery in the study, Myrtle feature doors in the master ensuite and seamless Blackwood floor that flow throughout this home. The kitchen is a ''bespoke'' master piece with Italian stone benchtops and hand painted joinery with gourmet appliances. All three bedrooms on the main level are double size, the main the largest and boasting beautifully designed wardrobes and incorporate a very special ensuite you must see.
