Built in 1857, the heritage listed 'Wybalena' is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Hobart's history. Once the original Bellerive Post Office, this property has been lovingly cared for and sits upon stunning grounds in a highly prestigious location.

The beautifully presented grounds feature established trees and hedges, lovely roses and large green lawns; giving the feel of a country manor home as you walk up the path to the front entrance. A sun-lit veranda offers the ideal spot for a cup of tea, grandly welcoming guests to the house. Presented with a long hall, there are two bedrooms at the front of the property and the living, dining and kitchen to the rear. The woodwork inside is astonishing, featured in the flooring, wall panelling and doors; harking back to the past yet remaining elegant and timeless. The living room is warm and inviting, with an extravagant stone wall and fireplace as the feature. Everyone will enjoy relaxing in this room as a family, and with close access to the kitchen it's the ideal living space. The enormous kitchen also makes an astonishing first impression, for the craftsmanship that has gone into the woodwork is remarkable. The large windows and tiled floors give the space a homely feel. Bring the whole family together to prepare delicious meals in this fantastic kitchen, plus with great appliances, loads of storage and room for everyone to sit together, this really is the heart of the home. But wait - there's more! A wonderful lounge room also features on the lower floor, and it's an incredible sight. The grand fireplace, wood panelled walls and ceiling all come together to ensure this room impresses, making it a lovely bonus in this amazing home.

Two sizeable bedrooms on the ground floor have built-in wardrobes and generous windows, offering delightful views of the front garden.

The main bathroom is an incredible sight, boasting an enclosed shower, claw footed bath and magnificently adorned, polished wood vanity. Ducted heating keeps all of the rooms lovely and warm when required. The upper floor holds two more bedrooms which both offer stunning views over the gardens, and there is another bathroom also.

This property sits on a prestigious 892m2 parcel of land. The front, side and rear gardens are full of an array of plants, established trees (including some fruit trees), a quaint paved courtyard, separate sun deck, woodshed and lovely lawns.
