Built in 1935 and brimming with period character, this beautifully maintained three-bedroom home offers a rare combination of warmth, space and timeless appeal. From its classic façade, stunning views of kunayi/Mount Wellington and established gardens to its inviting interiors, every detail reflects the care and character of a home that has been loved for generations.
Step inside to discover generous living spaces flooded with light, including a formal living room with a charming fireplace, a separate dining area, a sunny family room warmed by a heat pump with the option of a gas fire and a sunroom — perfect for relaxing. Throughout the home, period features such as picture rails, French doors, original art deco light fittings and doorknobs and elegant detailing add to its enduring charm and sense of history.
The kitchen, although updated in a classic shaker style, retains its original brick fireplace nook — now housing the electric cooktop — and features a warm pine benchtop. This space backs onto the dining room, with the two rooms' diagonal fireplaces adding a lovely architectural rhythm and connection.
The family living space flows seamlessly through a sliding door to the stunning backyard, where views of kunanyi/Mount Wellington provide a picturesque backdrop. Outdoors, a large, level garden invites you to unwind and enjoy the seasons, complete with established flowering trees and shrubs, raised vegetable beds and a paved entertaining area. Come spring, camellias, daffodils, tree peonies, lilies of the valley, banksia-rose and many more flowers bloom across the garden, creating a truly enchanting setting.
A garage provides secure lock-up parking, while a further small lockable garage with its own separate gated driveway is ideal for a small caravan or trailer. A studio/workshop and office space add even more flexibility and practicality, making this home perfectly suited to a variety of lifestyles.
Positioned in the heart of New Town, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds — a peaceful, family-friendly setting just minutes from excellent schools, local cafes, shopping and Hobart's CBD and only a 15-minute walk to North Hobart's vibrant restaurants and cinema. Offering the perfect blend of heritage charm and everyday comfort, this is a home that captures both the heart and imagination.
