Ohio House | Classic Charm

Summary

Welcome to Ohio House, a magnificent 1920s Federation-style residence located on Launceston's vibrant George Street. Featuring 4 spacious bedrooms—including a charming 1930s hardwood loft—this creatively styled home is the ultimate base for families and groups. Walk to the CBD in minutes, enjoy local dining steps from your door, and reach Launceston Airport in just 15 minutes.



The Space

Built in 1920, Ohio House captures inner-city heritage charm with its curved bay front window, grand feature gable, classic half-verandah, and tuck-pointed brickwork.



Bedrooms: 4 large, comfortable bedrooms, featuring a standout attic loft built in 1935 with local hardwood joinery.



Living & Dining: Cozy front lounge ideal for family movie nights or shared meals.



Kitchen: Fully equipped with everything you need to cook at home.



Bathroom: Spacious bathroom with a shower over the tub.



Climate Control: Year-round comfort with split-system heating/cooling and panel heaters.



Guest Access

Guests have private, full access to the entire home. Enjoy seamless self-check-in anytime after 3:00 PM via a secure key lockbox.



The Neighborhood

Launceston blends heritage architecture, urban wilderness, and world-class dining—earning its title as one of Australia’s top destination towns.



Dining & Shopping: Located directly on George Street (known as "Eat Street") and just blocks from Charles Street's famous eateries, cocktail bars, boutique shops, and pubs.



Culture & Entertainment: Walk to the Princess Theatre, the retro Star Theatre cinema, and the vibrant Harvest Market every Saturday morning.



Natural Attractions: Minutes from Cataract Gorge (featuring walking trails, swimming basins, peacocks, and the world's longest single-span chairlift) and City Park (famous for its oak gardens, conservatory, and resident snow monkeys).



Family & Waterfront Fun: Explore Penny Royal World for adventure activities, or visit the Seaport Precinct along the Tamar River for waterfront dining and Riverbend Park.



Getting Around

While a car is recommended to explore the broader region, getting around locally is easy:



Free Tiger Bus: Hop on the striped city bus at nearby stops near Princes Square Park or the Launceston General Hospital.



E-Scooters: Download the 'Beam' app to pick up purple electric scooters nearby.



Bike Rentals: Rent city or mountain bikes from Roll Cycles on Cimitiere Street.
