Rivenhall a Mansion in the Making... Rivenhall a Mansion in the Making...Designed by Bernard Walker, the pre-eminent Tasmanian architect of the early 1900's Rivenhall is a superb example of a luxury home built when master-craftsmanship (and labour) were inexpensive commodities.Unlike anything built today, the five bedroom mansion offers a rare type of character that you just won't find in any new or renovated property. Indeed, all of the early 1900's features still exist in beautifully maintained original condition, just as they did over 100 years ago!This 'blue-ribbon' address is located right on the edge of a peaceful Native Reserve and walking trail, with the University campus just a stone's throw across the Lambert Rivulet. The aspect from the private double-block takes-in views to the sparkling Derwent River, Cruising Yacht Club and Wrest Point Casino site.The resident outbuilding includes a stable (now a wood store), a gardener's workshop, garage and storage area. Inside the home, a timber panelled foyer area with grand staircase leads to your formal lounge, dining and drawing rooms, all featuring iron fireplaces and access to a warm conservatory on the Eastern side.You will also have the pleasure of delighting in morning sunshine from your Federation-style verandah overlooking a sprawling English garden planted with mature shade trees, roses and various fruits.Upstairs, each of the five bedrooms is awash with natural light and is lavished with huge amounts of space, high ceilings and glorious water views. Most feature ornate iron wash basins, fireplaces and built-ins wardrobes, while your master suite is simply a home in itself!Priced very attractively so you'll have the privilege of being the first to put your stamp on this original design. It's perfect for a family who wants a Victorian mansion with true heritage value, close to Schools, University and the Hobart CBD.Envision the amazing home this could make and call now for your chance to inspect...- A Mansion in the Making - Private double block, English gardens- Formal lounge, dining and drawing room- Conservatory, sun-drenched accom space- Hand-crafted grand staircase & railing
