Overview

Situated in one of North Hobart's most desirable pockets, this property masterfully blends historic charm with contemporary design, creating a home of both character and modern convenience. The original cottage’s period features, including exposed brick fireplaces, are thoughtfully preserved and integrated with a spacious contemporary extension that impresses with a high vaulted ceiling and natural light flowing in through clerestory windows.

The residence offers a generous master bedroom equipped with built-in wardrobes and an ensuite, complemented by two additional bedrooms retaining their original character and ample storage space. The main bathroom is designed for comfort, featuring both a walk-in shower and a separate bath tub.

The well-appointed kitchen caters to both everyday needs and entertaining, featuring quality appliances such as a double wall oven, gas cooktop, and an under-bench wine fridge, all set amidst generous bench space. The open-plan living and dining area extend seamlessly to a covered outdoor entertaining space, enhanced by mains gas connectivity including an outdoor barbecue setup.

This home prioritizes comfort and practicality with full insulation, floor-ducted heating, double-glazed windows in the extended section, plantation shutters, a spacious laundry, pantry, and ample storage solutions, ensuring functionality and ease of living. Outside, the level and fully fenced yard is easy to manage with established gardens and dedicated vegetable beds, providing a secure environment.

Additional practical features include a garage and off-street parking for two extra vehicles, alongside a recently replaced roof ensuring peace of mind. Currently functioning as a short-stay Airbnb, the property delivers an approximate 9% gross return, presenting a compelling investment opportunity alongside its appeal for downsizers and families seeking a low-maintenance yet spacious and versatile home.
