"THELMARA COTTAGE" - c1860*
Nestled on the banks of York Cove, Thelmara Cottage is believed to have been built around 1860, however its design suggests it may be older.
The land was originally granted to Major Stewart, being in a prime location next to the Government Store, blacksmiths, nailmakers and a lumber yard.
During the 1870's it was occupied by Capt. Sturdee, master of the Eastern Extension Cable Co's maintenance ship. The Co. operated the cable link with mainland Australia.
Moving forward 160 or so years, Thelmara still sits proudly looking across the waters of the Cove, and presents a magnificent opportunity for the next custodians of this time capsule.
The term cottage can conjure up visions of small, no space, but in this instance the property pleasantly surprises with more than enough room to take up residence.
The current configuration allows for 3/4 bedrooms, or 2 living areas taking in the water views, good sized kitchen and bathroom, a rear sunroom and an upstairs loft/office space.
The positioning of the home was convenient then, and nothing has changed now, you are literally 2-3 minutes at the most from surrounding cafes, supermarket, chemist,etc.
Why drive when you can walk the waters edge to shop.
Wonderful opportunity as a private residence, short term accommodation which would be enhanced by the ever expanding tourism sector in George Town.
So, are you up to the task of restoring and continuing the legacy of this wonderful property? If so, give me a call or pop along to the Open Homes.
Features include: Remote Garage,Secure Parking,Workshop,Open Fireplace
