Steeped in history and brimming with character, 1/62 George Street is a rare opportunity to own what is thought to be among one of New Norfolk's earliest private residences. Believed to have been built shortly after the first government land grants in the area circa 1824, from the Governor to Charles Clarke, a Carpenter by trade. This stunning Georgian style home exudes timeless elegance while seamlessly integrating modern comforts. A later-added front room currently utilised as a dining and living space is a versatile space filled with soft natural light and leads to the home's original grand facade. High ceilings create an inviting atmosphere, while intricate period details such as Australian red cedar architraves, pit sawn Blackwood timber floorboards with original hand forged nails, and each room hosting a decorative fireplace, evoke a sense of grandeur and refinement. The striking timber staircase, adorned with ornate newel posts, is a standout feature, while the fan light above the original front door adds another touch of historic charm. The kitchen seamlessly blends classic and contemporary elements, featuring sleek black cabinetry, stone benchtops, and modern appliances, including a dishwasher. The bathroom and laundry have also been tastefully updated to enhance everyday comfort. Upstairs, two original dormer bedrooms offer light-filled spaces and a bird's eye view of the backyard. The sunroom at the rear of the home boasts original sandstone flagstones and provides an additional peaceful retreat to enjoy the home's tranquil surroundings. Beyond the main residence, the property extends with a series of connected outbuildings, each once serving a unique purpose. These versatile spaces provide ample storage or potential workshops. The landscaped gardens have been thoughtfully designed for low maintenance, and a carport adds further convenience. Positioned within walking distance of New Norfolk's vibrant town centre, this home offers unparalleled access to local attractions. Stroll through the weekly New Norfolk Market, explore boutique breweries and antique stores, or dine at the renowned Agrarian Kitchen, named Gourmet Traveller's Restaurant of the Year in 2024. Essential amenities such as a major supermarket, schools, parks, and picturesque riverside walks are just moments away.

Here, you'll find stunning Russell Falls, towering eucalypt forests, and the vibrant hues of the Fagus, Tasmania's only winter-deciduous tree.
