13 Stoke Street, New Town TAS 7008

Situated in sought-after Stoke Street and set upon an expansive 1,120m2 allotment, this circa 1900s property presents a unique opportunity for those looking to restore this home to its former glory of yesteryear.

The home stands in original condition, displaying characteristics of its Federation period, including soaring ceilings, original timber floorboards, ornate mantles with fireplaces and superb stained-glass windows.

A versatile floorplan allows for a myriad of living arrangements. In need of repair, the home offers a five-room configuration, with space for formal living and dedicated dining, extending to the front verandah.

The galley style kitchen at the rear of the home presents endless potential to recreate a contemporary culinary space fit for twenty first century living. As it stands, there is a large walk-in pantry, cabinet space, and an electric stove.

Three bedrooms make up the accommodation in the home with original fireplaces, intricately carved, with elegant tiles. The bathroom servicing the home will require renovation, and there is a second toilet located outdoors adjacent to the external laundry.

Behind the main house, by way of a lengthy, private driveway, sits an expansive garage with solar panels installed, secured by remote-controlled roller doors, able to fit up to six vehicles within comfortably.

Neighbouring the garage, a large timber workshop provides additional storage space and original outbuildings offer a 2nd WC, laundry and even further storage room.

The highly sought-after location in prestigious Stoke Street alone is a compelling reason to purchase, all within minutes of North Hobart, New Town, Lenah Valley, and Hobart's CBD.

Ideal for those seeking a restoration project, to reside within a slice of Tasmania's rich Federation history, this rare, blank canvas offers plenty of scope to remodel and create a dream home, limited only by imagination.
