Perched atop Launceston on almost thirty acres of undulating land, CULTOWA, designed by renowned architect Robert Morris Nunn, is a postmodern masterpiece grounded in its environment and composed of the materials that define its era: brick, glass, timber and stone. The home positions its occupants and their guests to take full advantage of sweeping valley vistas, while its distinctive architectural character offers a rare opportunity for those seeking a property of scale, presence and versatility.

Winner of House of the Year in 1988, the residence remains one of Launceston's most admired homes. Its design and configuration lend themselves not only to a remarkable private residence but also to a potential mixed-use retreat, boutique accommodation, or events venue, an ideal setting for weddings, corporate functions, or creative workshops, subject to council approval.

The home features two large living areas, offering flexibility for families and guests alike. A private sitting room, formal lounge, or potential fifth bedroom provides options for various uses, while the lower-level formal living space impresses with its exposed timber ceiling, open stone fireplace and panoramic views stretching to Evandale.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen and dining areas form the social hub, connecting effortlessly to the surrounding wings. The eastern wing hosts the master suite, set privately with serene garden aspects, alongside two additional bedrooms, two bathrooms, a study and separate laundry.

A secondary wing, linked by a split level and glass atrium, reveals the fourth and fifth bedrooms, one with ensuite. This wing also leads to the ten-metre inground pool, hot tub and steam room, where breathtaking city views can be enjoyed.

Adjoining the pool atrium, a private courtyard shaded by established trees provides a tranquil outdoor entertaining space. Beyond, a rotunda overlooks the full-sized tennis court and valley below, the perfect setting for intimate events or leisurely afternoons.

The surrounding twenty-eight acres feature rolling hills, established trees, and open lawns, ensuring privacy without sacrificing the property's commanding outlook. Held by the same family for over three decades, CULTOWA represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure one of Launceston's most unique and versatile estates.

Less than fifteen minutes drive to the center of the Launceston city and a few minutes drive to the Newstead shopping precinct, this home is the private architectural lifestyle property that you never thought you would find this close to the city.
