A heritage mansion in Northern Tasmania dating back to the 1830s has been listed for sale for the first time in 15 years.
Located on William Street in Perth, the mansion, known as ‘Beulah’, occupies 2.4 acres along the banks of the South Esk River.
“Historically noted and architecturally significant, the house, originally known as Iona, was built by convicts in 1835 for Dr Salmon,” the listing agent said.
“It later became a rectory and was then home to the Reverend Alfred Stackhouse and his family.”
The property features four bedrooms, two bathrooms, huge patio, gardens, trees, stables and training arena for horse lovers and is said to be drawing huge interest from Sydney buyers.
“The scene is set from the long hedge-lined entrance drive with glimpses of the imposing white two storey 380m2 house, featuring deep expansive verandahs, decorative posts, balustrades and trimmings.”
“Notable features include two French doors, as well as the main entrance with elegant fanlights. The impressive entry hall leads you to a number of beautifully proportioned rooms, all painted in a soft palette.”
While a price guide hasn’t been disclosed, similar historic properties in the vicinity have fetched multimillion-dollar sums.
