Blending Georgian grandeur with a modern design sensibility, this majestic colonial homestead is recognised as one of Launceston's oldest properties that have stood the test of time.
Circa 1843, "The Cedars" once known as "Pinkie House" has been tastefully restored from what was a tired old lady back to her former glory while adding modern comforts for today's expectations.
The Cedars is all about opportunity - encircled by over 3200m2 of park-like grounds set on two titles; there is flexibility to perhaps develop one title.
It is also an opportunity to live in one of the grand homes of Launceston and be only 10-minute drive from CBD, and even if you desire, it has the potential to earn you good income as an Airbnb.
Featuring ten bedrooms, the home would be ideal for families, or for those looking for a new business investment.
The home also boasts multiple living areas, two updated kitchens located at opposite ends of the property and an office with its own entry.
This property has seen many different uses during its 170-year history including originally being Pinkie House of Pinkie Farm which had approx. 85 acres of land that stretched down to the Tamar River.
Around 1900, the property's name changed to "The Cedars" where the owner farmed, bred and trained racehorses winning nine Hobart Cups and six Launceston Cups.
This truly is a spectacular property that is hidden away behind electronic gates in a quiet residential street close to local schools, shops and public transport.
