Splendid outlooks accompany every room of a design that retains rich period integrity yet conveys consummate comfort.

High ceilings, timber floorboards, classical details, open fire-places and additional bathroom further distinguish the downstairs spaces. Upstairs you'll find the master bedroom featuring a walk-in robe and ensuite plus four spacious bedrooms all with Built-ins/walk-in robes and a family bathroom.

The desirability extends below to the lower ground floor's versatile lounge, wine cellar, abundant storage and a fourth bathroom – the flexibility is exceptional, the character is clear.

A series of spectacular outdoor entertaining spaces, expansive gardens complimented with an automatic watering systems, a Wisteria canopy and unparalleled privacy define the surroundings of this landmark home. In addition, the convenience of undercover parking for two vehicles all within walking distance from St Georges Square.

Built for the Birchall family in the 1930s, the home was designed by launceston's eminent art-deco architect, Colin Philip. Subsequently lived in by Dr Ida Birchall MBE, Tasmania's highly respected first female obstetrician/gynaecologist who created the wonderful walled garden.

This home has been in the current owners' hands since 1988. It now offers the new custodians, and the potential third owners, an unmissable opportunity.
