This incredibly charming home is rumoured to date back to the early 1900s but was relocated to its current location in the 1990s. The current site was chosen because of the abundance of sun and the stunning outlook that’s offered; the rolling green pastures and distant hillsides seem perfectly suited to home, which was named after a beautiful county in Northern Ireland – Tyrone
Although Tyrone sits proudly on the hillside and commands views of the Valley, its positioning sees it also remain quite private. It’s surrounded by well-loved and established gardens that are the perfect mix of both ornamental and productive varieties.
The traditional floorplan sees the two very spacious bedrooms found off the wide entrance hall. Each of these provides built-in robes and plenty of additional space for some freestanding furniture.
The lounge area is incredibly generous and filled with original charm; from the roses on the cornices, and the central fireplace to the timber framed sash windows.
A formal dining sits adjacent to the living room and offers beautiful characteristics, including an ornamental fireplace and mantel.
At the rear of the cottage, you’ll find the timber country kitchen with its striking Tasmanian Granite benchtops and quality feature tiles. This area is shared with an informal dining space, that provides seamless access via French doors into the back garden.
The extensive landscaping here has created an enviable outdoor area that is complete with a charming water feature, which the birds and frogs adore.
The land has been terraced which has resulted in a unique separation of different plantings – this allows you to feel as though each part of part of the garden is a destination and there are fruit trees and veggie gardens already in place.
Tyrone is a home filled with romance and rich history and just happens to be positioned within walking distance to a fantastic bakery, a well-renowned restaurant and is just 35 minutes from the centre of Hobart.
