Stanley houses. The road is very narrow one vehicle wide, photos were taken from the car window to the best of my ability, further down the same road it became wider so out of the car to get better shots.
Most of the houses would have been built in the late 1800's and early 1900's.
Stanley last week won the Tasmania, Australian Tourist Award for under 5,000 people and will compete for the Australia Award later in the year.
This house is the birth place of Joseph Lyons who was The 10th Prime Minister of Australia. Joseph was born in 1879 died in 1939. The above house is a tourist attraction.
They look really nice, but the very last one is my favourite.
ReplyDeleteLovely looking house that one is Angie.
DeleteThose houses look grand! My favorite is the third one.
ReplyDeleteIt's a cutie that one, my grandparents had a house similar way back.
DeleteI love the porches and the fancy wood work trims. They have a recognizable Australian look.
ReplyDeleteThose porches are great to sit in the evening or during the day.
DeleteAll the displayed houses have style and solidity. They also have the right kind of windows.
ReplyDeleteI would have liked to live in any of them.
Have been inside house as shown they are comfortable and don't have large room, seems to be more homely.
DeleteHow lovely - and so very well maintained.
ReplyDeleteNearly all the house in Stanley are like that, lovely gardens and well kept the people certainly take pride.
DeleteMe han encantado esas bellas casas. Seguramente el conductor ha contribuido a que haga buenas tomas y habrá pasado despacio por ahí.
