70 Shadforth Street, Westbury, Tas 7303

Located on the corner of Shadforth Street and  Adelaide Street, this charming period cottage was one of the first private homes built in Westbury in an area referred to in the town as 'The Ritchies'. 

Offering lovely rural views from the front verandah of this early 1850s cottage, towards and within a short walking distance of Westbury Village Green and Town Common. Filled with sun for most of the day- morning sun into the aptly named sunroom/dining room and afternoon westerly sun into the bedrooms. Some of the original charms of the home are still visible – the beautiful hardwood flooring, concrete window aprons and window lead lighting.

Although the kitchen is original it is a perfectly functional room with loads of space and as it adjoins the sunroom/dining room there is potential to re-configure if you choose.

Practical family bathroom with a shower over bath and large wet room which could be re-configured back into a laundry. 

The sleeping accommodation is flexible, with 3 designated bedrooms offering comfort for the professional couple or growing family. 

Your choice of gorgeous radiant heat comes from either an open wood fire or the built-in Saxon woodfire and if the fire goes out there is a choice of two reverse cycle air conditioning units to take the chill off the winter air.

The secure flat yard offers a low maintenance garden, established mature trees and loads of space for children or pets to enjoy.

The brick bungalow, separate to the house, would make a great sleep out for guests, a teenager’s retreat, study/office, or perhaps additional short-term accommodation (STCA).

There is another outbuilding that backs off the freestanding single garage – 2 rooms that could be used for additional storage with a second toilet. 

The classic 19th-century village is a lovely reminder of old England with its hawthorn hedgerows, narrow lanes, tree lined streets and its many elegant properties. Walk to the local school, the Post Office, the Heritage listed Village Green, bus stop and to some of the charming local shops that Westbury is becoming known for - Western Tiers Distillery, Little Marney’s Town & Country gift store and Love Lucy Boots, touted to be the best coffee in the Meander Valley area.

This represents a unique opportunity to live within a thriving, growing community and with Launceston  a 25-minute drive away, and Devonport a 45 minute one, the "big smoke" is well within reach when you need it to be.
