The Story Roope Street is home to some of the oldest properties in New Town, and the right property, like a timeless novel, will age with a certain style AND charm that can be savoured for a lifetime. Number 24 is a beautiful little cottage that was first built in 1870 and as you walk through the front door you are surrounded by timber walls and to the left, a sunroom, now blocked off that creates a fully separate study where your creativity can be nurtured and prosper. Of course when you need to rest your brain there are 2 bedrooms, both with built in storage to have a good nights slumber. Leading through, the floors turn to slate and the walls to exposed brick as an open plan dining and kitchen area greet you and a wood fire warms you making even a Tasmanian cold winters evening seem almost insignificant. The bathroom and laundry are combined and having the brick and tile surrounds, along with a corner spa, it almost gives you the feeling of being in your own private bath house. Lastly, there is a quaint courtyard at the back that is completely private making the property feel more like a little country escape, right in the heart of New Town. It's not until you walk through the front door that you'll come to understand that this property is truly something special. I think it's fair to say that you won't just like 24 Roope Street, New Town, I think you'll have no choice but to fall in love with it.
