Character, Style & Versatile Living

Description

From the white picket fence and bright front door to the beautiful timber floors and original fireplaces inside, 5 Keane Street is a home with plenty of personality, thoughtfully updated while retaining the character that makes it so appealing. The main residence offers two bedrooms and one bathroom, with generous living and dining spaces providing plenty of room to spread out. High ceilings, timber floors and original features bring warmth throughout the home, while the modern kitchen adds a contemporary contrast with dark cabinetry, timber-look benchtops, subway tiling and plenty of storage. The living area is a comfortable place to unwind, complete with a restored fireplace and wood heater, while a reverse-cycle heat pump provides an additional option for year-round comfort. The timber floors were sanded and stained in 2025, beautifully complementing the original character throughout the home. Adding even more flexibility is the separate studio positioned at the rear of the property. Built in 2023, the studio offers an additional bedroom and its own bathroom, creating a fantastic space for guests, older children, extended family, a home office or simply those wanting some extra space separate from the main residence. Outdoor living is another real highlight. A generous covered deck flows from the rear of the home, creating an easy space for entertaining, outdoor dining or simply relaxing and enjoying the backyard. The secure yard offers a combination of lawn, established greenery and raised garden beds, while the double carport and additional off-street parking provide plenty of room for vehicles. The property has benefited from a long list of improvements in recent years, including the studio, deck and patio roof completed in 2023, a new driveway in 2024, timber floors sanded and stained in 2025 and a new roof in 2026. New insulation and updated wiring add further practicality, while a 4.4kW solar system with an 8.6kWh battery helps keep electricity costs low. Fibre-to-the-premises NBN adds another modern convenience to the home. Positioned in popular South Launceston, the home is within easy reach of the Launceston General Hospital, cafés, parks, shops and the CBD, offering a convenient lifestyle just minutes from the heart of Launceston.
