A Piece of History 0 Franklin Street, COLEBROOK TAS 7027
Property Detail
Property Description
Not only does this lovely allotment of approx. 7407m2 offer tranquil rural views, it also boasts a remnant of this villages convict history. A Probation Station was established in the area in the early 1800s and during this time a church was built on this site but was never consecrated.
A fire damaged the upper level of the building some years ago but the remaining Sandstone and Convict Brick structure set on the back boundary of the property makes a dramatic feature. There is also a substantial timber barn on site.
Town water and sewer is located on the edge of the land and power connection is close by. The land is zoned Village and may be subdivided (STCA). An avenue of eucalypts along the road makes a wonderful privacy screen for the property.
Colebrook is surrounded by beautiful farmland and has a general store as well as a Tavern. It is only a 30 minute drive from the bustling township of Sorell which has large shopping complexes as well as a medical centre and just a 45 minute drive to Hobart. A school bus takes students to either Campania or Oatlands.
