What a magnificent history…Circa 1884…

Sitting proudly on the corner of Wenvoe and Turton Streets is 'Anthon's Cottage'. As the name suggests the home was originally built for Captain Jens Anthon who was a well-known seafarer on the NW Coast.
Steeped in history and brimming with original features this cottage has been beautifully restored and updated to be the gorgeous home it is today.
From the wrap around verandah, you step through the front door to be greeted by Tasmanian Oak floorboards, high ceilings, decorative cornices and ceiling roses and a beautiful sense of times gone by.......
The home is light and bright, freshly painted throughout and ready for its new owner. Let's take a walk through…
Entering the extensive hallway on the right are two huge bedrooms both with panel heaters for extra warmth in the winter. On the left the house opens up into the main loungeroom complete with centre fireplace that has been restored. Next is an open plan dine in kitchen, with vinyl wrapped cabinetry, a large pantry and quality appliances.
Backing onto the lounge is a second living area which is joined by the fireplace, both have electric heating, and there is also a reverse cycle air-conditioner.
There is a sparkling new bathroom, beautifully tiled with a walk-in shower, which is a good size and is also conveniently home to the laundry.
Heading up what is believed to be an original staircase you will find a large loft/storage area that has access to the roof cavity for extra storage space. The views of the city are very impressive from the cute dormer windows in this area also. Over the years this gorgeous cottage has been beautifully restored with new wiring, new plumbing, new plaster throughout the house as well as having a near new roof.
From the Turton Street side there is a rolled door attached to the house where you can park 2 cars under cover. From the Wenvoe Street driveway there is access to the massive 4 car shed that was an original mechanical garage with a second toilet and absolute loads of storage.
This home is zoned general residential so could be of interest to businesses and professional services that fall into this category. To find out more about this fabulous home, please phone the listing agent Wendy Squibb or come along to one of our upcoming open homes… we would love to show you around.
