Property Detail
Property Description
This quaint example of Georgian architecture has been the home and inspiration for the World renowned Artist, Bea Maddock for some years but it is now time for someone else to enjoy its quiet charm. It sits on a large allotment of approx. 1669m2 which backs onto open paddocks.
Wide Sandstone walls with deeply recessed sash windows; a lovely, little kitchen with its own cute wood heater and views over the back gardens; an open plan dining and lounge which has French doors onto the wide, timber deck; and three bedrooms two doubles (one with an open fire place) and a single; and a bathroom with a deep bath make up the living space.
There have been stages of renovations done to the house including a new roof, the deck, a new hot water cylinder and the wiring was redone at some time and tested in 2011. At the back of the property is a large artist studio which was built in 1997 and has power as well as water connected, has wonderful natural lighting and is insulated. Further down the block is a rustic-style shed/cubby house in good order.
The house is located at the northern end of the town, just across the road from Lake Dulverton, and within walking distance of shops and cafes as well as the Golf Course. Oatlands offers a wonderful medical centre and school as well as lots of community clubs and events. It is just over an hours drive to Hobart.
