One of Wynyard’s Most Distinguished Federation-Era Residences.
Step into timeless elegance with this exquisite Circa 1900 homestead, proudly standing as one of Wynyard’s most iconic Federation-era homes. Rich in history and character, this grand residence was originally built for Arnold Blackwell and his family, whose sawmill once operated next door.
Affectionately known as “The house on the hill, that still stands” – as featured in Wynyard: A Pictorial History – this stately home has gracefully withstood the test of time, offering approximately 34 squares of sophisticated living on a beautifully elevated 1,260m2 corner block.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captivated by its Federation charm. The residence boasts solid timber flooring, soaring ceilings, ornate cornices, elegant ceiling roses, and multiple open fireplaces – each detail thoughtfully preserved and restored to celebrate its heritage.
Inside, the home offers:
Three beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with private ensuites – one featuring its own sitting room and access to a charming outdoor patio.
A dedicated library room, complete with a fireplace and rich timber accents, easily adaptable as a fourth bedroom or elegant study.
The stunning semi-circular conservatory window, a 1940s addition, now serves as a sun-drenched sitting room with picturesque garden views.
A chef’s kitchen with granite benchtops, quality appliances, and generous storage, flowing into a cozy casual dining space.
An expansive formal lounge and dining room, ideal for entertaining on any scale – from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations.
Further enhancing the property’s appeal:
Private guest suite with separate entrance – ideal for guest accommodation or potential income (STCA).
Daikin reverse cycle air conditioning with heat transfer system & wood heating for year-round comfort.
Solar panel system for energy efficiency.
Double garage, carport, and additional off-street parking for boats, caravans, or guests.
Beautifully landscaped gardens with private outdoor entertaining zones, perfect for relaxed alfresco living.
This remarkable home offers not just a rare slice of Tasmanian history, but a lifestyle of refinement and comfort – all within minutes of Burnie/Wynyard Airport, the vibrant township of Wynyard, and the breathtaking Table Cape Tulip Farm.
