Building Franchise Tasmania

Storybook Cottages are a long established family based business with franchises all over Australia.

The traditional facade and construction style of Storybook Cottages, with the elegance and character of high pitched roofs, loft style rooms, dormer windows and split levels, fits perfectly with the existing architecture so prominent and popular throughout Tasmania. The cottages sit as comfortably within an urban setting as they do amongst the trees, mountains and creeks of Tasmania's rural countryside.

The franchisee has full back-up from an efficient, professional franchisor and staff, and this allows the franchisee to sustain a high level of operational activity, whilst maintaining a basic employment strategy, creating the ideal environment for a family based business.

The business has programmes in place to fully support owner management, as well as full build opportunities for the franchisee who is a licensed builder. Materials are all sourced locally, and the cottages built on-site from bulk framing timbers, giving the franchisee full control of the selection of materials used in the construction.

The Tasmanian franchise has been in place for 6 years, and a large network of builders and suppliers has been set up throughout the state. Opportunities for further expansion are great, with advertising centres already in operation both in the north and south of the state.

Our cottages are widely advertised throughout Australia, and are well known for their outstanding character and appealing designs. An established office is available for lease in the Hobart central area.

Lifestyle advantages in Tasmania are second to none.
