A Federation Homestead with Land, Light and a Life Well Lived
Set across 3.79 hectares — just over 10 acres — of beautiful Old Beach countryside, this 1908 Federation residence is a home of warmth, history and rare lifestyle appeal. Only around 25 minutes from the heart of Hobart’s CBD, it offers the space, privacy and sense of freedom so many families dream of, without leaving convenience behind.
From the moment you arrive, there is a feeling of something special. The home sits proudly within established grounds, framed by cottage gardens, mature trees, mountain outlooks and the kind of country quiet that immediately slows the pace. Wide verandahs, red brickwork, period detailing and a welcoming front entry speak to its Federation origins, while the generous interiors have been shaped for comfortable family living.
Inside, polished timber floors run throughout, bringing warmth and character to every room. The accommodation is substantial, with five generously sized bedrooms providing excellent flexibility for family, guests, work-from-home needs or creative pursuits. Multiple living areas allow the home to adapt beautifully to the rhythm of family life, offering spaces to come together, retreat, entertain or simply enjoy a quiet moment by the window.
At the heart of the home, the oversized kitchen, living and dining area is flooded with natural light and designed for genuine connection. With a new induction Belling cooker, excellent proportions and room for a large farmhouse table, it is easy to imagine long lunches, winter dinners and Christmas gatherings unfolding here — cooking while children play outside, friends drift through the garden, and the home fills with conversation.
This is a property made for those who want to live closer to the land. Raised vegetable gardens, a chicken coop, established cottage gardens and wide open space create the foundations for a true paddock-to-plate lifestyle. Whether it is growing produce, collecting eggs, entertaining outdoors, running animals or simply giving children room to roam, the property invites a more grounded and generous way of living.
For those considering the longer-term possibilities, the scale of the land lends itself to future subdivision potential (STCA).
The home also offers two bathrooms, excellent utility areas, a mudroom, laundry, storage, attic space and a separate rumpus/ or guest bedrooms upstairs, ensuring the practical needs of rural living are well considered. Outside, the infrastructure continues with a carport, garage, shed, storage areas, chicken coop, hay storage/stables and expansive outdoor entertaining spaces, including a large deck and courtyard area designed for gathering in the open air.
Beautifully presented, rich in character and set within a truly usable landholding, 203 Old Beach Road is more than a Federation home. It is a lifestyle property with soul — a place where children can grow, gardens can flourish, guests can gather and every season can be enjoyed with space around you.
Only minutes from everyday amenities and within easy reach of Hobart, this is country living with connection, history and heart.
