Iconic, historic property at Forth, Northwest Tasmania

We are selling....
This spectacular home with a rich history (circa 1898) has been sensationally transformed for spacious, contemporary living in the sought-after township of Forth.
The ground floor features 3 striking separate living areas, huge formal dining, a commercial kitchen, and a tranquil sheltered courtyard as well as 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Upstairs, a surprising light-filled atelier/studio awaits.
Hallmark features of the era remain, including high ceilings, multiple fireplaces, triple brick walls, timber doors, and polished floorboards which blend seamlessly with modern inclusions:
updated timber flooring and split system heating and cooling.
Solar panels and a wood heater minimize the electricity bill.
The property has 3 phase power.
