About this property
Amidst the whispering willows of the Derwent Valley, where time flows gently like the river beside it, stands a noble sentinel of Tasmania’s storied past: Hallgreen - a name etched in heritage, reborn in elegance and class.
First gracing the landscape in 1825, this Georgian masterpiece is no mere home - it is a monument of memory and mastery, lovingly restored by its discerning owners who understood its significance and responded with reverence.
Veiled in privacy and nestled within 5,731 (approx.) square metres of stately gardens, Hallgreen rests on the banks of the River Derwent as though painted there by time’s own brush. From the moment one approaches, its commanding silhouette - rooted in Old Colonial Georgian grace - stirs the imagination. Every corner of this residence speaks in the hushed tones of centuries past, although today the property is not only a grand family residence but lends itself to being developed into a reception venue, bed and breakfast or private hotel.
The property stands over two separate titles which lends itself to many options, including expanding the accommodation with three free-standing cottages all with river views. Concept plans are available for perusal.
The main level of the house comprises 330m2 of entirely renovated areas and all the features to provide luxurious living.
The transformation is truly breathtaking. Where history lingers, elegance now flourishes. Enter through grand French double doors to be greeted by vintage Versailles-pattern oak floors, shimmering chandeliers, and a classical hallway that rivals Europe’s finest. Hallgreen has not been renovated - it has been reborn; each detail infused with intention and care.
The floorplan here features a magnificent reception room, sitting room, family and dining room and two bathrooms. The custom-made gourmet kitchen, fit for an epicurean connoisseur, boasts white onyx benchtops, a regal Smeg cooker, bespoke cabinetry, and a butler’s pantry that dreams are made of.
Each bedroom is a chapter of refined living all opening from a stunning hallway with fluted cedar arches. The main bedroom opens to its own private verandah commanding views over the magnificent gardens and the River Derwent; the perfect place to enjoy breakfast and watch the local rowing club on the river or an evening beverage to watch the setting sun over the mountains.
The lower level has features such as flagstone flooring and timber beams. It comprises 185m2 and offers the opportunity to provide many options of use including three accommodation suites each with its own sitting area and bathroom facilities (concept plans are available for perusal).
Outside, the gardens unfurl like a Regency poem - terraced and tranquil, adorned with fountains, fruit trees, herbs, and flowering beds. Seasonal blooms of colour appear year-round including tulips and orchids, camellias and breathtakingly beautiful heritage and David Austen roses of all types and colours and the white wisteria espalier across the wall to the courtyard fills the air with a sweet fragrance and magnificence. Pink and white magnolia trees bloom throughout whilst beneath the canopy of the garden centrepiece, the venerable white Magnolia tree, time pauses, inviting celebration, contemplation, or the quiet joy of simply entertaining family and friends.
New Norfolk with its quaint charm and convenience, you are just a short stroll from great coffee, restaurants, schools, a supermarket, a wide variety of shops, Vets and services. There are hospital and medical facilities as well as public transport. The Hobart cbd is a short 35-minute commute.
