4 Short St, Fingal, Tas 7214

Previously the Fingal Town Hall & Council Chambers (circa 1882), this amazing and very unique building has been transformed by the current owners into a residence, business premises and accommodation for paying guests.

There are many facets to this building - the first floor encompasses 2 separate, self-contained apartments and the original 'hall', complete with stage, has been transformed into a cinema which could easily seat 50 guests. This is a private cinema, not a going concern and can be transformed into whatever use the new owner wishes (gallery, markets, workshop, performance space etc.

One of the apartments (currently used as the owners residence) features polished Tassie oak floorboards throughout with soaring ceilings and large Nectre wood burner in the main living area. Views of Ben Lomond and the surrounding countryside can be enjoyed from the kitchen and living room windows.

The other apartment features a main bedroom and living room/kitchenette, with brand new carpeting and modern, luxurious bathroom. This apartment is currently a successful, 5-star rated Airbnb listed as Red Door at Fingal Town Hall.

The ground floor boasts large hardwood exposed beams and original sandstone walls and foundations and houses the old gaol cells, 2 offices (previously the doctors surgery), a bar area and the old library. Upstairs has been 'done' however the downstairs areas are yet to be given a new lease of life. The options are endless. With Village zoning the opportunity for a commercial enterprise (STCA), accommodation business or as the current owners were planning, a 3rd large apartment on the ground floor.

The fully fenced rear garden lends itself to fun alfresco evenings with friends around the fire pit. The resident peacocks also add a bit of colour.

The current owners have invested heavily in electrical, plumbing, window restoration, roofing, flooring and extensive renovations over the past 4 years. There is still work to do however this substantial Victorian era building is extremely solid and in overall very good condition.

The location places you within an idylic small country town, surrounded by rolling hills and farmland, 75 mins from Launceston, 30 mins down to the magnificent East Coast and only 90 mins to Ben Lomond ski fields.

Totally unique and very liveable as either a grand country home, business premises, retail, gallery or commercial enterprise.

*Most furnishings and AV cinema equipment available by negotiation
