Boasting elegant grandeur and spacious proportion, this landmark circa 1880 home is located on a large block in one of Hobart's most prestigious streets. Enjoying magnificent views over Sandy Bay and the Derwent River it is within a short walk to both Salamanca and the city centre and not to mention the best cafes and restaurants that Battery Point has to offer.
Among its rich array of period detail are the beautifully polished floorboards, high ceilings and ceiling roses, decorative cornices, handmade Tasmanian Oak doors, and original fireplaces and mantels, all finished with meticulous care. The spacious formal lounge, living and dining rooms are complimented with seven bedrooms, providing for plenty of options.
There is also a huge storage shed and a double carport with ample room for further off street parking and a rarity in Battery Point.
For the most part the difficult work has been done including rewiring, plastering, heating and a large amount of other restorative work. All that is left is an easy renovation to the bathrooms and kitchen to suit your own style and maximise the elevated view, and there is no doubt that this property will stand as one of Hobart's finest.
