Last Listing description (April 2026)

Welcome to Elbony, a grand and gracefully preserved 1880s weatherboard homestead set on 2.5 acres that stands as one of Westbury's true character gems. Beautifully established grounds, this enchanting property blends historic charm with the comfort and practicality of modern rural living. From the moment you arrive, the warmth of the home, the sunlight-filled interiors and the tranquil setting create a sense of calm that's hard to leave behind.

Stepping inside, you're greeted with impressive space and versatility. Five generous bedrooms, 3 with built-in robes and one with a walk in robe, provide abundant room for families of all sizes, while two inviting bathrooms, including an oversized ensuite - add everyday ease. Multiple living zones allow you to shape the home to your lifestyle, whether that's cosy winter evenings by the fire, lively family gatherings or quiet moments spent tucked away with a book. The wrap-around verandah brings the outside in, offering the perfect place to start your morning or unwind at the end of the day.

Outside is where Elbony truly comes into its own. The gardens are nothing short of magical with mature trees, green pockets to explore, paved spaces for entertaining and endless corners to enjoy the sunshine. A wood heater and two reverse cycle air conditioning units keep the home comfortable through the seasons, while the outdoor amenities elevate the property into a complete lifestyle package.

The triple bay shed with internal workshop and 3 phase power is ideal for hobbyists, trades, storage or creative pursuits. For those dreaming of a self-sufficient life, the infrastructure is already in place: solar panels, four water tanks, a dam, a netted vegetable garden, composting bays, a chicken coop and a wood shed. A rare convict-built sandstone well adds both historical significance and a valuable water source to the property's self-sufficient infrastructure. It's the kind of setup that gives you freedom to grow, create, build and live more sustainably.

The orchard is abundant, offering four varieties of apples, two pears and a selection of stone fruits, providing home - grown produce throughout the seasons.

Framed by sweeping views of the Western Tiers, the setting is peaceful, private and picturesque, yet remarkably convenient. Westbury's township is moments away, and Launceston CBD is an easy 25 minute drive, giving you the perfect balance between rural serenity and everyday accessibility.

Elbony is a rare offering - a home with soul, history and heart, ready to welcome its next chapter.
