William Broad Cottage - Heritage Charm Meets Modern Comfort

Step inside William Broad Cottage and discover a home where history and modern living intertwine effortlessly. Originally granted to William Broad in 1839, this remarkable residence has lived many lives. From a coaching inn and granary to a school, billiard saloon, antique store, and now a beautifully restored family home with versatile general business zoning. Imagine the possibilities.

The heritage charm remains in its stone and convict brick construction, while every detail has been tastefully renovated to the highest standard, delivering a home that is move-in ready with nothing more to do.

Three spacious bedrooms all feature built-in robes, with two showcasing original fireplaces that add warmth and character. The main bathroom is a sanctuary with a large bath and separate shower, while the second bathroom ensures ease and convenience for family living. At the heart of the home, the extended kitchen flows into a sun-filled dining and living area, with large glass sliding doors framing the stunning garden. Designed with both style and function in mind, the kitchen offers European appliances, stone benchtops, ample workspace, and a versatile peninsula bench doubling as a breakfast bar.

The formal lounge is filled with character, boasting authentic oak timber floors, a wood heater, and reverse cycle air conditioning. Throughout the home, plantation shutters and a soft neutral palette create a harmonious balance of heritage charm and modern comfort. A wraparound verandah completes the picture, offering the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning coffee.

Set on almost three-quarters of an acre, the grounds are every bit as captivating as the home. Two small paddocks provide room for pet sheep, while the backyard features a chicken pen/dog run, hot house, and raised vegetable beds. Mature fruit trees and landscaped gardens form a picturesque setting, while a private patio overlooking the river invites afternoons of relaxation or evenings of entertaining. Practicality has not been overlooked, with a single garage, lock-up storage, wood shed, and double garden shed offering ample space for every need.

Perfectly positioned at the southern end of High Street, the property is just a short walk from Campbell Town's cafs, shops, and the Elizabeth River, with schools, artisan stores, and medical facilities close by. Launceston is an easy 40-minute drive to the north and Hobart just 1 hour 20 to the south, offering a seamless balance of rural charm and urban convenience.

Recently renovated with new wiring, plumbing, roof, and gutters, and finished with exceptional attention to detail, William Broad Cottage is brimming with character and ready to begin its next chapter. This is more than a home - it is a lifestyle.
