About this property

Rich in history and beautifully updated for modern living, this remarkable property dates back to the late 1830s, when it was originally built as a store. Over the years, it has served several purposes, including a rest home, hostel, and bed and breakfast, before becoming the unique and character-filled private residence it is today. The home offers four spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms, and has been thoughtfully renovated to combine modern comfort with its original heritage appeal. Living spaces include a cosy snug with a wood fire, a lounge room with bay windows opening onto the wraparound verandah, a separate office or fifth bedroom, a dining room adjoining the kitchen, and a breakfast room opening onto a private deck. A stylish modern kitchen and updated bathrooms complement the home's timeless features, while original timber floorboards, joinery, and high ceilings preserve the charm and craftsmanship of a bygone era. The home also includes a cellar. Positioned directly opposite the beach and Swansea Jetty, the property enjoys an enviable coastal lifestyle. Local shops, cafés, the golf club and bowls club are all within easy walking distance or enjoy a drive to local wineries and the Freycinet National Park. Adding further versatility, the property includes two self-contained units at the rear, ideal for rental income, extended family living, or guest accommodation. Both are currently tenanted. This is a rare opportunity to secure a historic coastal home offering character, flexibility, and income potential in a truly outstanding location on the East Coast of Tasmania.
