A striking Edwardian townhouse completed in the early 1900s, Elgin has been reimagined with a considered restoration that marries timeless craftsmanship with modern sophistication. Constructed with double brick and sandstone, and spanning three distinct levels, the property offers exceptional versatility, generous proportions, and a wealth of character detail.
From the Warwick Street access, Elgin reveals soaring ceilings framed by decorative arches, refurbished timber floorboards, and unique fireplaces. A spacious bedroom with original fireplace and striking ornate ceiling rose is accompanied by a luxurious bathroom with spa bath and underfloor heating. Two separate living zones on this level enjoy a cleverly designed kitchenette with marble stone finishes and ambient lighting.
Descending downstairs, the middle level features an inviting open-plan kitchen, dining, and family space, opening to a private balcony. The kitchen is an entertainer's delight and features stone benchtops, a stainless-steel Ilve oven, and 200-year old antique Moghul doors leading to a butler's pantry. An equally impressive bedroom and a bathroom/laundry complete the floor.
On the ground level, a self-contained retreat with private access provides flexibility for additional living or strong investment returns. This space incorporates natural stone, timbers and high quality fixtures and fittings and has private external access that leads to the home's paved courtyard.
Further features include central gas heating, fresh internal paintwork, two off-street carparks, and a secure intercom system. Zoned commercial yet used residentially, the property currently operates as successful short-stay accommodation, achieving approximately $95,000* in 2024.
Located in Hobart's thriving Midtown precinct, within walking distance of schools, amenities, and the CBD, Elgin offers a rare chance to own a landmark residence with lifestyle and income potential.
