Welcome, is the resounding atmosphere as one steps into the elegant foyer of this home. Restored woodwork, new carpet and warm tones add to the charm of 1930s Architecture.
To the right, the formal lounge room is richly decorated with red velvet curtains. Flowing through the home is neutral, quality carpet met by original polished floors in the other living areas. Granite bench tops compliment the stunning, functional kitchen.
This is definitely a space for an inspired cook ready to enjoy the Smeg gas double oven and still be engaged with guests in the dining area. The adjacent family room provides a cosy second living area. The stairs leading to the second storey have storage underneath and quirky linen cupboards halfway up.
Upstairs the master bedroom ensuite is stunning, with views to the mountains of Hobart's Eastern Shore. A large bath and shower with massage head, set in a bright sunny room and tastefully appointed. The master suite is also served by a walk in robe and study nook on the landing. The 3rd large bedroom is also on this level.
New privacy blinds and some blockout are through the home, red velvet curtains and the jewel of window furnishings is definitely the dramatic blinds / curtains crafted in Belgium and shipped to be the finishing touch on an exquisite home. Light is provided both by chandeliers and sympathetic modern light fittings. Some original plaster moulded ceilings have been maintained.
Towards the back of the house is a separate laundry with walk in pantry. Yet another little storage nook and a 3rd toilet are added benefits. Outside a large patio is covered by laserlight and opens to the garden. A thriving vegie patch is down one side of the home, and can be used as a second driveway. The double garage and workshop is huge.
In 1935 this charming home was carefully crafted and built and in 2013 it is a home with all of the charm maintained and nothing left to be done. Lets call it an "Elegant Masterpiece" with all the signs that it has been well loved and with remarkable attention to detail in recent years. Professional couples and growing families, come and experience number 3 Carlton street.
