This magnificent contemporary home, sits on the tree line of West Hobart, with sensational picture postcard views of the city, harbour and beyond. Access is via a private residents only driveway at the rear of the home and there is also parking at the front with a path leading up through the gardens to the front door.
The attention to detail that has gone into the design of this home is evident from the moment you step behind the three hundred year old Chinese antique doors. The home offers a clever and flexible floor plan offering a beautiful and distinctive separation of private and public space. Beyond the entry foyer is the open plan living hub of the home.
The living area showcases exquisite myrtle polished floorboards that have never seen shoes. This sun-filled space takes full advantage of the north easterly aspect and opens onto one of the three large decks.
The kitchen will make entertaining a pleasure, unobtrusive in its design; it offers great storage and bench space, a gas cook top, electric oven and dishwasher. Located on this level are the main bathroom and 2 bedrooms, both with built-in robes. The laundry area opens onto a private enclosed courtyard at the rear of the home, ideal for storing the BBQ and hiding the washing line from public view.
Upstairs is a sight to behold and is accessed via a staircase of Tasmanian Oak treads and a steel support frame that is both a practical use of space and aesthetically stunning.
Upstairs is the parents retreat which is luxuriously appointed and truly indulgent. This area offers panoramic views through windows that all slide open to let the outside in. There is also an internal sliding door that retracts into the wall cavity to separate the lounge area upstairs and the main bedroom space. Behind the wardrobe is the ensuite, on a slightly higher level, this room has a resort-like ambiance. Opening onto a private deck with views to the bushland behind, this bathroom has a free standing bath and glass-free shower.
This property is perfectly located with the restaurant and entertainment precinct of North Hobart and the famous grocery stores of Hill Street, in very close proximity, not to mention being inner-city living with the CBD and waterfront close by. The house is located on the edge of Knocklofty Reserve which is a maze of walking tracks for the dog and mountain biking, a major drawcard for the outdoor enthusiast.
The gardens are established and low maintenance, adorned with predominately native, bird attracting plants. There is great storage under the house that would be ideal to convert to a cellar or gym area.
This home is a sight to behold and words and photographs do not do it justice. Contact Mel for a private inspection and discover all that it has to offer.
