Situated on the boundary with West Hobart, this city residence is a classic example of Australian Federation architecture. Built of solid brick with sandstone detailing, it is a well-maintained early 20th Century home which, over the decades has seen a number of renovations but always the integrity of the house has been maintained. Built over three levels to accommodate the slope of the land, the property has commanding views across the CBD to the Derwent River and the hills of the Eastern Shore beyond. Entering from the street, a closed-in verandah leads to the front door with its original stained glass surround. This is the middle level of the home where the main living areas are found: a modern family kitchen with dining area, plus an attractive window seat capturing the afternoon sun; a comfortable sitting room with an adjoining closed in sunroom, and a family bathroom. There are also two double bedrooms with built-in robes, one of which has a connecting study. With original polished floorboards in the hallways and kitchen, deep skirting boards, high ceilings and ornate cornices and picture-rails, the home conveys a sense of history. Upstairs on the top level is a parents' retreat: a double bedroom with en suite and views across the city, a balcony for those morning coffees as the sun rises or a quiet evening drink as it sets behind the mountain; and ample storage in both built-in cupboards and attic space. On the ground level is a self-contained flat with a double bedroom, a sitting room, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a bathroom. This area has its own entrance but can also be accessed from inside where it could become part of the main household: ideal for multi-generational living. The grounds are easily maintained with an attractive small garden in the front and a paved and gravelled area at the rear. There is off-street parking and the original out-buildings accommodate a laundry and storage, whilst the garage contains a work-pit. The position of this property is paramount: it is within walking distance of the CBD, the Hobart waterfront including Salamanca Place, historic Battery Point, the proposed relocated University of Tasmania, and both private and public schools. With its flexible floor-plan and central location, this piece of Hobart's history has great potential.
