There is something immediately welcoming about 291 Park Street.
Set behind established gardens this 1916 character home brings together the warmth of its original era with the comfort, practicality and flexibility expected of modern living.
High ceilings, timber floors and an abundance of natural light create a beautiful sense of space throughout the home. The floorplan offers three bedrooms two of which have large built-in wardrobes, a stylish central bathroom, multiple living zones and a well-appointed kitchen featuring European appliances. The main living and dining area feels generous and inviting, while the second living space, accessed through a striking custom pivot door, adds another layer of versatility to the home.
This sun-filled rear addition is one of the home's standout features, complete with double glazing, tilt-and-turn windows and direct connection to a small home office or study. It is the kind of space that works just as well for quiet mornings, relaxed entertaining, working from home or giving guests and family members a little extra room to spread out.
Comfort is well managed throughout the seasons with three reverse cycle heat pump units, allowing the home to be heated and cooled in zones rather than relying on a single source. This makes day-to-day living more efficient, more flexible and better suited to modern households.
Outside, the gardens wrap around the home to create a private and peaceful setting. A paved outdoor area provides space for alfresco dining, while the low-maintenance lawn is ideal for children, pets or simply enjoying the garden without the burden of heavy upkeep. A generous shed adds excellent storage and could also lend itself to a studio, workshop or creative space. Off-street parking for two vehicles completes the package.
The location is one of the home's greatest strengths. New Town is one of Hobart's most convenient city-fringe suburbs, offering easy access to the CBD, North Hobart, local shops, cafes, schools, public transport and everyday services. The home is only moments from New Town Road, New Town Plaza, local cafes and amenities, while the North Hobart restaurant strip, State Cinema, Queens Domain, Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens and central Hobart are all within easy reach. New Town is also recognised as one of Hobart's earliest established suburbs, adding to the area's character and enduring appeal.
For owner-occupiers, this is a home with soul, function and lifestyle convenience. For investors, the combination of three-bedroom accommodation, multiple living areas, off-street parking, city-fringe positioning and proximity to Hobart's dining, medical, education and tourism precincts gives it clear short-stay accommodation appeal, subject of course to the relevant approvals and regulations.
Full of charm, light and flexibility, 291 Park Street is a home that feels both established and highly liveable - a classic New Town residence with genuine lifestyle and investment versatility.
