The Balfour - Classic Cottage in CBD Café Quarter

The Balfour is a beautifully refreshed two-bedroom, two-bathroom heritage cottage tucked just behind Launceston’s vibrant café precinct. With Charles Street’s best cafés, bakeries, and award-winning restaurants right around the corner, it’s an ideal base for food lovers, city explorers, and guests who appreciate convenience without compromising on charm.



Located just a short stroll from the Launceston General Hospital (LGH), boutique shops, supermarkets, and the city centre, you’ll have everything you need right at your doorstep. Spend your mornings exploring the local café scene, your afternoons wandering City Park or visiting local galleries and museums, and your evenings dining out—then retreat to the calm and comfort of your own private cottage.



Inside, the home is designed for relaxed, comfortable living. Downstairs you’ll find a cosy lounge with a TV and Bluetooth speaker, a formal dining room perfect for shared meals, and a bathroom full of heritage character with a clawfoot tub. Upstairs, two queen bedrooms are styled with soft linens and a second full bathroom provides extra comfort—ideal for couples, friends, or small families.



But the true highlight is the private courtyard. Filled with greenery and drenched in sun, this peaceful outdoor space features a BBQ, sun umbrella, egg chair, and fire pit—perfect for quiet mornings, slow afternoons, or evenings by the fire.



A high chair, portacot, and children’s books are available for families, and street parking is available right out front (free overnight from 5pm, with two-hour limits during the day).



Blending classic charm with thoughtful comfort, The Balfour is a stay that feels every bit as special as its location.
