As you pass through the front gate, the impact is immediate - an undeniable "wow" as you're greeted by the lush gardens and irreplaceable Colonial architecture. Once inside, the sense of history and homeliness is tangible. The house wraps around you with warmth, offering an inviting country atmosphere that has aged gracefully. The indoor-outdoor flow is both practical and charming, with multiple entry points leading directly into the garden, making everyday living feel effortlessly connected to nature.

Original features like slate flooring, Huon pine kitchen cabinetry, open fireplaces, and upstairs floorboards speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while every room enjoys a view of the garden. The layout is flexible, featuring four bedrooms - two upstairs and two down - as well as a mezzanine study, an upstairs retreat or play area, and an office space off the kitchen and dining room. Two well-appointed bathrooms, including one off the main bedroom, cater to both family living and visiting guests. Heating is provided by both wood and electric sources, ensuring comfort throughout the year.

Beyond the home itself, the property includes a large shed that can serve as a garage or workshop, as well as a smaller roadside shed once used for selling flowers to passers-by. At the rear of the estate, a simple bench overlooks the paddocks and the serene Derwent River, offering a peaceful escape from the rich sights, sounds, and scents of the gardens - and the abundant birdlife that call "Rosedown" home.

This extraordinary estate is not just a home - it's a living, breathing piece of Tasmania's history, lovingly preserved and ready to inspire its next chapter. With exciting opportunities for those wishing to host garden clubs, weddings, artists retreats, garden tours or open a garden cafe (STCA), this very special property could be your next new business venture or just your family home for generations to come.
