Steeped in history and overflowing with charm, this heritage-listed 1880 manor makes a striking statement on its expansive corner allotment. Behind the timeless white brick facade lies a surprisingly private and quiet residence where the elegance of the past meets the comfort of today, enriched throughout by rare Huon pine features that celebrate craftsmanship of the era.
Inside, a series of refined formal and casual living zones unfold with character and warmth. A stately lounge anchored by a marble fireplace and an adjoining dining room showcase colourful leadlight windows, while the kitchen and sitting room extend the home's sense of hospitality, complemented by a bathroom on this level for added convenience.
A sweeping staircase leads to four quality bedrooms upstairs, including a deluxe sunlit guest suite with its own private staircase, corner bar and wonderful rear outlooks. This space offers remarkable flexibility – easily adapted as a second north-facing living room, rumpus, or home office. It also provides the perfect setup for running a business from home, with the secondary staircase allowing clients discrete access without disturbing the main household.
Other bedrooms carry attic-style character, with a study opening to a private balcony and a beautifully appointed marble bathroom completing the floor. With bathrooms on both levels, the home ensures excellent liveability for families and guests alike.
The outdoor space is designed for both relaxation and grand entertaining. A solar-heated in-ground pool, broad terrace and covered pavilion connect to a remarkable recreation room with kitchen, retractable bi-folds and a stylish bar. Beautiful gardens envelop the property, with manicured hedges, fruit trees, and raised vegetable beds adding charm and productivity, while side access provides easy parking for a trailer, boat or additional vehicles.
The lifestyle on offer is second to none. With a sun-drenched north-facing aspect and sweeping views of Mount Wellington/kunanyi, the home is just metres from a choice of schools and a short walk to Bellerive marina, where the ferry can whisk you to Hobart's CBD in minutes. Shopping, dining and leisure are right at your doorstep, completing the appeal of this rare and distinguished residence.
