9-11 Railway Reserve, Queenstown, Tas 7467 - More Details
$510,000
Steeped in history and rich in character, 9-11 Railway Reserve presents a truly rare opportunity to secure a piece of Queenstown's past, and continue where the owners have left off. Once the original office spaces for the renowned Mt Lyell Mine, this remarkable property has been brought back to life for what is a spacious residence and gallery, perfectly suited to artists, creatives, or those seeking something well beyond the ordinary.
From the moment you step through the front door, you are welcomed by a wide central hallway, where the eye is immediately drawn to the striking pressed tin ceilings. This is a feature that continues throughout much of the home and adds to its timeless appeal. The main residence offers four bedrooms, including a flexible layout where one room leads through to another, with sunroom access off this.
The living room is set separately, creating a comfortable retreat complete with a reverse cycle air conditioner for year-round comfort. An original kitchen space has been stripped back, now offering a blank canvas ready for you to design and create a space that perfectly suits your needs and style.
The bathroom retains its original charm, fitted with a shower over bath and vanity, blending character with practicality. The renovated laundry is accessed through a small storage space with built-in shelving. Throughout the home, you will find a combination of new and original carpets alongside beautiful timber floorboards, further enhancing the warmth and personality of the property.
Importantly, much of the major groundwork has already been completed, including restumping, rewiring, replumbing, and a new roof. While the home retains its original character and is not a modern build, it offers a solid foundation for those looking to further enhance and personalise the space over time.
A true standout is the expansive gallery space, an inspiring area ideal for showcasing artwork, hosting exhibitions, or simply enjoying as a large studio. This space is also equipped with its own reverse cycle air conditioner, and beautifully decorative marble fireplace.
Flowing off the gallery is a fully renovated self-contained unit, offering a single bedroom, kitchen with electric cooking, open-plan living and dining area, and a bathroom with shower over bath. This versatile addition can be accessed internally via the gallery or externally from the deck that connects the two spaces, making it perfect for guest accommodation, rental income, or dual living.
Externally, the property continues to impress with an assortment of sheds, a single car lock-up garage, and a front verandah, the perfect spot to relax and take in the charm of Queenstown's main street as the day unfolds. Positioned in a fantastic central location, the property offers convenience while embracing the unique lifestyle the West Coast is known for. Set on approximately 1,661 square metres, this is a property that combines history, creativity, and opportunity in one truly distinctive package.
Queenstown itself is a town like no other, surrounded by rugged mountain ranges and rich mining heritage, it offers a strong sense of community, stunning natural landscapes, and a lifestyle that blends tranquillity with adventure. Whether it's exploring nearby walking trails, enjoying the ever-changing scenery, or becoming part of a welcoming local community, this is a place where you can truly make your mark.
