About this property

Original character features

Imagine waking up to those mountain & city views? The sun will greet you early each day, especially when having breakfast on your own personal deck. This home is located within walking distance to the famous Cataract Gorge, a convenience supermarket, with public transport running past your doorstep. The city, restaurants and Launceston General Hospital are just a walk or short drive away.

And what an interesting home it is! The combination of modern & older style furnishings blend perfectly together. Featuring original lead light windows, polished timber floorboards and ornate open fireplaces & mantle pieces, and with the recent addition of full double glazing throughout, we guarantee you'll be more than comfortable.The modern kitchen will inspire you to whip up gourmet delights, of local produce & then entertain on the deck. We're confident the sun and views will ensure your time spent here is more than enjoyable. But then on the other hand, you may want to share in the delights of the garden surroundings & enjoy an end of day tipple or cuppa. There are also two modern bathrooms & ample off street parking for three vehicles.

Available long or short term.

We invite you to enjoy being part of the TAG Collection.

Ok property
It was a ok property in a reasonable location. It needed a good clean, dust in some areas indicates cleaning not comprehensive and a tray in oven with leftover crumbs etc still in there, was disappointing. The back deck is lovely. Road noise annoying sometimes.

Clean, comfortable and warm stay in great spot
We had an enjoyable and warm stay here with the family. It was very clean and tidy and had comfortable big beds and room to relax. Kitchen well equipped for home cooking. The kids enjoyed the board games. Easy to park and exit in the hire car. Very close to a supermarket and could walk to cafes on Charles St. Check in process was quick and easy, all very straight forward.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mountain View Delight is all you think it to be from its title. Beautifully situated above Launceston with amazing views out to the mountains. Everything about this home is wonderful and very thoughtful. Comfortable beds, ample towels, wonderfully warm and welcoming. Books & games - small details but thoughtful. Everything you need in the kitchen to cook your own meals as well as supplies such as coffee and sugar. Washing machine and laundry supplies were a godsend! Beautifully maintained and pretty garden I wandered around. Walking distance to IGA and not too far from a great little cafe. The gorgeous Cataract Gorge is very close by.I was sad to leave but hopeful in knowing I will definitely be back! Thank you Donna from TAG and whoever owns this home, thank you - it’s very beautiful!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is an absolute gem and a great find. The house itself is gorgeous with stunning original features and extremely spacious with massive rooms. The property is well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay, the kitchen is stocked with excellent quality kitchenware and appliances. The view was amazing out of the kitchen and upstairs rooms, the location was central and easy to access everywhere we desired to visit. This is one property I would recommend in a heartbeat to anyone travelling to Launceston.
