The opportunity has now come for the next custodian of Robinson's to develop and expand this historic property into a unique tourism venture, private residence or expand the current successful accommodation business. Located in the centre of the popular historic township of Oatlands, one of Australia's tourism hotspots, the property is positioned to capture the strong tourism trade at a very realistic WIWO price. John Robinson was convicted for forgery and sentenced to transportation in 1820. In 1836 he was granted land and a year later built a comfortable weatherboard cottage – locally known as Robinson's Cottage. Robinson was an entrepreneurial pioneer and acquired large land holdings where he continued to erect buildings in the township of Oatlands. By the 1870's, shops had been added on either side of his cottage and used by a saddler and harness maker and Drakes Chemist and Dispensery. Today the original cottage and stores he built are on offer. The fully restored complex of stores and the original cottage on 1386m2 (approx.), operates as a successful accommodation venture. The property includes 3 beautifully presented cottages. The Studio comprises of a bedroom, ensuite and living/kitchenette. The convict built brick Barwick Cottage has a bedroom / living area, generous ensuite and includes the original kitchen fireplace and the 2 bedroom Robinsons Cottage includes a bathroom, living room and kitchen/dining. The northern wing comprises of 3 beautifully proportioned rooms perfect as a studio, further accommodation, private residence or revive the once popular wine bar or other retail enterprise. There is dual access to the property, a large backyard and ample parking and all town services are provided. Located in the historic Georgian township of Oatlands, the property is well sited in the town centre to capture the strong tourism trade. Minutes walk away is the Callington Mill and Distillery, art galleries, antique stores, the Aquatic Centre, an array of stores, cafes, eateries and home to the famous Jardin Room and Provincial Interiors. Hobart and Hobart Airport is an hour drive. This is a truly remarkable and an affordable opportunity to create a successful venture in the heart of one of Australia's most important historic townships and tourism hot spots.
