During a storied history that dates back to 1828 and includes significant contributions to the rural, cultural and political life of Tasmania, Quamby Estate has adopted diverse, distinguished roles - yet this is also a property that has remained true to its origins as one of Australia's most desirable family homes. It is exactly this identity that defines Quamby today.
Surrounded by some 64ha of prime farming land, where privacy might just be the most valuable attribute, the homestead is a work of art as much as a triumph of architecture. An elegant flag-stone paved verandah wraps around the residence to the north and the east, bringing beautiful light and sublime sights to spaces that include two evocative reception rooms, each rich in classic character, both featuring romantic french doors and magnificent fire-places.
The dining room's soaring ceilings, handsome floorboards and great proportions inspire ideas for entertaining on a grand scale while the adjoining snug, with its own bar and fire-place projects patina and personality that's impossible to resist. A kitchen of commercial capability caters to every modern day need, confirming the style and success with which Quamby has moved with the times.
Ten bedrooms, each accompanied by a sophisticated ensuite, deliver divine accommodation to a design that's arresting in its luxury, its allure and its ability to create a world that lets you unwind, slow down and take delight in such exceptional environs.
The estate's manicured nine hole golf course, with its own wonderful club house in a converted stables building, provides great enjoyment or a 'good walk spoiled'! In addition, Quamby's light-filled function room, Georgian era coach house and extensive farm outbuildings illustrate the estate's outstanding flexibility.
The home of Sir Richard Dry, the first Australian born state premier and the first Australian recipient of a knight-hood, Quamby was once colloquially known as the government house of the north in Tasmania. Today, this refined, revered property is renowned as a family retreat of unparalleled prestige - and remarkable value for money by mainland standards.
Easily reached from other state capitals by flights to Launceston airport, with ample space to create a private landing strip if so desired, Quamby lies just moments from quaint Hagley village in a set-ting of scenery, greenery, sophistication and grandeur. Launceston city is readily reached, but once here, leaving will be the hardest part.
