Delightfully Renovated Country Cottage 1031 Inglewood Road, ANDOVER TAS 7120

Gorgeous ‘Wash Cottage’ was built around 1850 and sits on approx. 7057m2 (almost an acre and a half) of land close to Ashgrove Lagoon. The property has water rights to the lagoon (the head-water for the Little Swanport River) which provides irrigation for the lovely cottage gardens.
The cottage has undergone a few transformations over the decades including a timber addition replaced in the 1920s with Sandstone from the Old Bath Inn at Jericho.
The current owner has rescued it from neglect and restored it with renovations including – repointing of stone walls; new water tanks (as well as new guttering and down pipes); new wiring (plenty of power points!); new wood heater in sitting room; lovely new country kitchen including new flooring and new stove; and painted throughout.
All of the beautiful, Heritage features have been kept including the sandstone fireplaces – one with the original bread oven still in it; lovely timber floors; a garden wall of convict stone; and the Sandstone stables now converted to a garage with workshop, wood storage and still room for a horse or a few sheep to shelter in.
The delightful village of Oatlands is under 15 kilometres away and the bus to the District School there goes right passed this property. The village also offers a great medical centre, shops, cafes, 2 Hotels and an RSL Club as well as a Golf Club and Bowls Club. Hobart is under an hour and a half away and the bustling town of Sorell is about an hour and a quarter drive.
