30 Elizabeth Street, Bothwell, TAS 7030

Step into a piece of Tasmania's rich history with this beautifully restored home, built circa 1860 by Benjamin Smith, a bookmaker and early figure in Bothwell's story. Benjamin crafted this home on land gifted by his wife's family, employing the skills of local tradesmen in exchange for goods, such as boots. The home's original timber shingle roof, now protected beneath modern iron, remains intact?a testament to the craftsmanship of the era.

Over the years, the home evolved with additions that include the shop Benjamin built in 1861 and later extensions to the rear of the property. Carefully restored by its current owner, this remarkable residence now blends its historical charm with modern-day functionality, offering a warm and inviting living environment.

Inside, the home boasts three well-appointed bedrooms, a fully serviced bathroom, and a practical kitchen that overlooks the backyard. The living area is a cosy retreat, featuring a wood fire as the room's centerpiece, perfect for relaxing on chilly evenings. The thoughtful layout ensures each space flows harmoniously, creating a home that is both practical and charming.

Outside, the property continues to impress. A spacious alfresco dining area provides the ideal setting for entertaining or enjoying quiet meals surrounded by nature. The expansive yard offers plenty of room for children and pets to play freely. A double garage/workshop adds convenience, whether you're securing vehicles, working on projects, or simply in need of additional storage space.
