Town living and gorgeous character and style combine in this wonderful 1910 double brick home. Boasting a sought after, central position and outstanding street appeal, this impressive property offers a step back in time with its beautiful original character features, yet its tasteful modern updates ensure convenience and functionality.

The years have passed quietly in the private beauty of this exquisite property. Behind the ornate front fence, mature plantings and box hedges, Gollan House is a treasure that has only improved with age, set in the heart of Ulverstone’s CBD.

Built in 1910 and sitting on approximately 1613m2, the imposing federation home and grounds have been meticulously maintained and preserved to the highest standards so that original floors, high ornate ceilings and cornices, magnificent windows and fireplaces are as beautiful as they ever were. Gollan House also has that intangible something that gives the home the luxurious sense of ease and comfort that money cannot buy.

Bay windows, rooms with cosy corners, thoughtfully placed upholstered chairs, a profusion of natural light from big windows throughout and the wide, shady verandahs on the rear of the house provide many enticing places to enjoy. No matter the time of day or season of the year, indoors or alfresco, this wonderful home has exactly the right spot to enjoy every minute.

This home has an enormous footprint with many era compatible upgrades and the floorplan has been designed to accommodate guests downstairs and the owner/care-taker upstairs if running your own Bed and Breakfast has always been a dream.

The striking blackwood staircase welcomes you to the home and separates the two levels. The floorplan includes five bedrooms and four traditional yet modern bathrooms that complement the historical integrity of the home. There are two kitchens, one on each level, two laundries, various living quarters throughout plus a library.

Outside, you will find perfectly manicured gardens with an eye-catching arbour that is draped in beautiful Wisteria and can be enjoyed from the peaceful grassed area, paved seating section or from your undercover balconies that wrap around the rear of the home. An electric gate allows access from the street where you will find plenty of off street secure parking, a garage and studio space that provides you with a workshop, studio space upstairs and extra storage.

With magnificent views across the CBD, the Leven River, the Dial Range and a glimpse of Bass Strait and the setting sun, neither words nor photographs can capture the magic of Gollan House. Acknowledged as one of the leading homes in Ulverstone, it has a charm that is felt rather than seen.

Built for the towns original doctor, there is no suggestion of time, just a smiling sense of history that is alive and well in today’s busy world. Gollan House offers an experience not to be missed.
