83 Agnes Street, Ranelagh, TAS, 7109, Australia

Step into the enchanting embrace of a unique 4-bedroom, two-storey home that seamlessly blends history with modern luxury. Originally a charming shop, this residence has undergone a captivating transformation, preserving its quirky charm while embracing contemporary comforts.

Every corner of this home tells a story, with remnants of its commercial past intertwined with the elegance of residential living. Imagine the bustling energy of customers perusing goods, now replaced with the warmth of family gatherings and the gentle hum of daily life.

Walking through the home the floorboards themselves tell a story of the history and the different eras that the additions have created, from typical wide boards of the late 1800s, to the neat and tidy tongue and groove of the 1940s and 50s. The house is built with massive hardwood timbers throughout, and like a lot of such buildings - expanded and added to over time - it has its eccentricities but is built like a rock.

The interior of the home has been meticulously renovated, marrying the best of the old and the new. A modern kitchen, adorned with state-of-the-art appliances, is the heart of this abode. Sleek countertops and contemporary fixtures seamlessly coexist with echoes of the past, creating a space that is both functional and visually striking.

A huge walk-in pantry offers an interesting snapshot of an earlier era, leading into the kitchen and dining room. Past the downstairs bathroom and adjacent double bedroom, you ascend the lovely late 1800's kauri pine staircase up to two bedrooms - one smaller attic style the other almost a large ship's cabin.

From these two utterly charming rooms you move into the vast open space of the upstairs west room. Whether you use this glorious room as an additional living area, a media room, a gym, or a really fabulous studio is up to you. Always filled with light, the room features beautiful Baltic pine flooring and stretches away toward two large, double-glazed windows which overlook that back garden, and further out over the paddocks to the rear, and to beautiful evening sunsets.

The back garden is a total oasis, offering beautiful mature trees including walnuts, a Huon pine, a Tasmanian myrtle, and a grove of huge man ferns. With multiple outbuildings including garages and sheds, plus many places to explore, sit and enjoy in total privacy.

Located in the centre of Ranelagh opposite the playground and a few steps away from the popular Summer Kitchen Bakery & Cafe. This property would be ideal for somebody working from home, where you could enjoy the sun filled front room that was formerly the store, with its floor to ceiling windows and beautiful timber floors.

While zoned General Residential, and making an extremely attractive residential home, the style, layout, and position lends itself to once again having potential business uses. With many home-based businesses such as tutoring, home office, art display, yoga and meeting spaces - all possible under the current zoning.

As you explore and take in the artistic beauty and experience of walking through this home, imagine the opportunities that a change of use or rezoning would offer- a restaurant, cafe, office building or dual tenancy - let your imagination run wild.
