Stylish and sophisticated, this beautifully renovated circa 1940s townhouse pays elegant homage to its Art Deco origins while delivering all the comforts of modern living.
Constructed in solid brick and offering approximately 150sqm of thoughtfully updated living space across two generous levels, the home immediately impresses with its large rooms, high ceilings and beautifully preserved period features. A spacious entrance hall sets the tone, where a grand staircase rises to an expansive upstairs landing, enhancing the home's sense of scale and architectural character.
The lower level is dedicated to living and entertaining. A stunning dark blue living room creates a dramatic yet inviting retreat, complete with a wood fire for cosy winter evenings. The renovated kitchen seamlessly blends style and functionality, featuring matte dark green joinery extending to the ceiling, elegant stone benchtops, an integrated dishwasher and a generous pantry. From here, step out to the fully fenced and secure rear yard, professionally landscaped to form a private sanctuary with a paved courtyard, garden, rear decking and two external outbuildings, including a dedicated laundry and a separate garden studio or office. Completing this level is a beautiful formal dining room, which also offers flexibility as a third bedroom.
Upstairs, the two main bedrooms are generously proportioned and include substantial built-in wardrobes. They are serviced by a luxurious, fully renovated bathroom appointed with marble tiles, underfloor heating, a bath, separate shower and the added convenience of a separate toilet. A charming Juliette balcony provides a delightful finishing touch to the upper level.
Significant upgrades offer peace of mind, including updated plumbing, electrical and insulation (underfloor and ceiling), along with a roof replaced circa 2019. New period lighting throughout enhances the timeless aesthetic, while under-stair and under-house storage and a lock-up garage add further practicality.
With a cross-over and driveway gates already in place, there is an easy option to re-instate the off street parking within the front of the property. Positioned just moments from North Hobart's vibrant café and restaurant strip and the iconic State Cinema, this is a truly unique, low-maintenance offering that seamlessly blends enduring character with contemporary luxury in one of Hobart's most sought-after locations.
