Situated within one of Hobart's most highly sought-after and blue-ribbon residential enclaves, 14a Lord Street presents an impressive federation family home within walking distance to the very best that Hobart has to offer.
Having recently undergone an extensive refurbishment, the home beautifully embraces a fusion of contemporary living whilst retaining the home's original Federation and heritage appeal. Timeless character and elegance flow through every inch of the property, with period features offering a glimpse into the rich history of the home.
Favourably positioned with a slight elevation from street frontage, the home commands a pleasant and verdant view. Beautiful bay windows within the living room take advantage of this position, with cosy wood heating providing warmth. The room interconnects with opulent dining, with a feature fireplace, and plenty of natural light. Across the foyer, wall-length storage and a corner fireplace sit within the study.
Beginning on the entrance level, sumptuous living is comprised of a spacious lounge, dining, and a family sitting room.
The inspired kitchen is simply exquisite, with a combination of exposed painted brick, polished timber and concrete, and bespoke timber feature ceilings. Huge benches, including a waterfall island, provide an abundance of space, illuminated by designer lighting. State-of-the-art appliances are integrated, and an enviable butler's pantry enhances maximum functionality and space.
Double glazed windows ensure the kitchen and adjoining sitting room within the architecturally designed annex bathe in sunshine, while allowing the indoors to extend out to the rear deck and courtyard with custom-built benches, built-in BBQ, and a pizza oven.
The upper-level of the lavish home contains luxurious accommodation with three generous bedrooms, two inclusive of storage and decorative fireplaces. The master provides the most stylish space to retreat, with a walk-in dressing room, elegant en-suite and a private terrace with angled glazing to capture mountain views.
Exuding sophistication, the main bathroom features a walk-in glass shower, deep bathtub, and a timber vanity, with a separate toilet. A European laundry sits neatly within large upstairs closets. Conveniently, the lower level is serviced by a secondary powder room.
Outside, the north-facing decked courtyard offers an idyllic al fresco space to relax year-round amid serene surrounds, with planter boxes filled with established greenery, and established trees whilst at the front of the property, manicured lawns, hedging, and age-old trees have been fastidiously maintained and cared for.
Dedicated wood storage can be found within the fully fenced yard, along with secure outdoor stowage sheds. Via a private laneway, the gated driveway provides ample off-street parking, along with a carport.
Polished, contemporary style has enriched the historic property, while allowing 1920s architecture and features to shine throughout. The residence showcases a seamless blend of old and new, while providing a distinguished and modern family home at a superior Sandy Bay address.
