Space
Ohio House was built in 1920. Overlooking Launceston, Ohio House exemplifies the modest Federation style that is typical for this part of the inner city, featuring a majestic curved bay front window, feature gable, half-verandah and tuck-pointed brickwork.
The beautiful loft bedroom - our favourite part of the house - was added in 1935 using local hardwood joinery.
