Property Features
'A Wee Stoatir' 'Stoatir' or 'A Wee Stoatir' is a remarkable property that offers a unique opportunity to secure a part of Midlands heritage. This colonial Georgian sandstone cottage, dating back to the 1850s, has undergone a beautiful restoration and renovation by a highly respected Midlands Heritage Consultant. The property was previously used as short-term accommodation for visitors to the historical Midlands township, and the restoration process has been carried out with great respect to showcase many of the mid-1800s features. The 163 square metre (17 sqm) floor plan of the home offers a range of options to the new owner. It can be used as a residence, a weekend retreat or a permanent address. The property could be re-established as a short-stay accommodation business, given its historical significance and appeal. Another option is to use it for commercial retail purposes, such as an art gallery, taking advantage of its heritage charm. Some of the key features of this heritage-listed home include original Cedar and Baltic joinery, polished timber and concrete floors, and exposed sandstone throughout the property. While it maintains its historic charm, it has been updated with modern wiring and plumbing, ensuring convenience and functionality. The modern kitchen overlooks the garden and mixes period finishes and stainless-steel appliances. The formal dining area shares space within the kitchen, creating a cozy atmosphere. The living area is flexible and features a Saxon woodfire, providing warmth during chilly Midlands winter evenings. There are four spacious double bedrooms, each with electric panel heaters for comfort. The original timber bathroom retains its period charm, boasting a claw-foot bathtub, open fireplace, copper tapware, and a toilet cistern. Additionally, the property has a separate laundry and a second toilet, making it convenient for guests if used as short-stay accommodation. 'A Wee Stoatir' is well-equipped with modern amenities, as it is connected to NBN and Foxtel television and has access to town services. With its historical significance, stunning architectural features, and potential uses, this property is a truly fabulous and captivating piece of Tasmania's Midlands heritage.
