Set across a sprawling 2.3ha allotment with breathtaking views of kunanyi/Mount Wellington, Hobart CBD, the Tasman Bridge and River Derwent, 31 Mount Rumney Road is a unique lifestyle opportunity combining architectural design, space, privacy and flexibility. Held in the same family for 23 years, this beautifully maintained property offers a sense of seclusion and serenity, while remaining just 12 minutes (approx) from Hobart CBD and only five minutes to local shopping centres.
The main residence spans approximately 228m2 across a single level with level access and is thoughtfully oriented to the north to maximise natural light and warmth throughout the day. A pitched roof, extensive glazing, and exposed oak timber ceilings enhance the sense of scale and connection to the surrounding landscape, while a wrap-around timber deck provides outstanding outdoor entertaining with sweeping panoramic outlooks.
Inside, the home is both inviting and substantial, featuring multiple living zones including a formal dining room centred around a striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Comfort is maintained year-round with ducted gas heating, two reverse-cycle heat pumps, and a freestanding wood heater in the living room. The kitchen is well-equipped with quality appliances including a Westinghouse gas oven and DeLonghi five-burner gas cooktop, complemented by excellent functionality for everyday living or entertaining.
Accommodation is generous with three bedrooms and two bathrooms in the main residence. The main suite is a retreat, with a private ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and spa bath, and a beautiful skylight that fills the bedroom with natural light and creates a relaxing ambience morning and night. Two additional bedrooms enjoy built-in wardrobes, soft carpet, and their own unique outlooks.
Adding outstanding versatility is a separate, fully self-contained chalet of approximately 119m2, offering a spacious upstairs bedroom, open-plan kitchen, living and dining area, plus bathroom and laundry facilities - ideal for extended family, or supplementary income.
The property enjoys an impressive suite of features including a large 6x9m double garage, ducted vacuum system, Ness alarm system and two hot water cylinders. A 27-panel solar system with 8kW inverter has delivered exceptional results, with the current owners not receiving a power bill since installation. Water security is supported by a tank with infeed on the eastern boundary, with the option to connect to the Mount Rumney Water Scheme, while a dedicated firefighting pump and roof sprinklers further bolster the home's resilience.
In a setting renowned for its native birdlife and wildlife - home to wallabies, echidnas, quolls, pademelons, parrots and kookaburras - 31 Mount Rumney Road offers a private, elevated acreage lifestyle without compromise on convenience. Offering architectural quality, breathtaking views and exceptional flexibility, 31 Mount Rumney Road is an address of enduring appeal.
