23 William Street, West Hobart TAS 7000

Enjoying an elevated position overlooking the delightful roof scape of West Hobart and with glorious panoramic city and Derwent River views from the Tasman Bridge to the Eastern Shore, this 'handsome' Interwar residence is an outstanding example of the worth and continuing relevance of historic properties in our community.
Award winning architects Ryan Strating and Chris Clinton from Core Collective have breathed new life into this 1937 beauty, designing a comprehensive renovation and 'enlightened addition...retaining some original spaces, while completely upgrading the building's amenity'.

There is 'hidden value' evident throughout with an impressive array of green smart elements employed in the installation of triple glazed windows, fully insulated roof, walls and floor space. In addition, there is gas hydronic heating and ceiling fans. Photovoltaic cells(5.1kw) with Tesla Powerwall 2 battery.

A path paved with recycled bricks leads to a lovely semi enclosed porch featuring a terrazzo floor of a majestic lion representing the Tasmanian Coat of Arms. The surprise is inside, an elegant hallway provides a nice buffer from the bedroom wing on the upper level and a choice of living areas. To the left of the front door, a sitting room is a gorgeous space, a sunny north-westerly aspect and a built in wood heater ensuring warmth and ambience year round.

The architects incorporated a clever aperture here over the staircase to the lower level providing a link to the kitchen/ living area on the mezzanine level. Pretty garden vistas and dappled light complement the city and river outlook and prove quite a distraction for the chef of the family. Contemporary flair, imported appliances including 2 Garland (USA) commercial cookers, a generous island bench in engineered stone and butler's pantry, is a cook's dream!

The open plan dining and casual living spaces defined by a most inviting window seat beneath Danish window frames, extends seamlessly outdoors to a private terrace perfect for dining alfresco. A built in fireplace and a specially commissioned green glass wall is a highlight and screens this area from passing pedestrian traffic.

There are 3 double bedrooms each with an ensuite and serviced by a European style laundry. The master bedroom on the lower ground floor level is a wonderful retreat with direct access to a timber deck and sandstone patio at the rear. A walk in dressing room and a luxurious bathroom includes a bathtub and completes this almost self contained level.

Established gardens with rare and interesting plantings, a timer controlled irrigation system is also in place. There is a roomy remote controlled garage with secure internal access with additional off street parking for up to 3 cars.

This is a beautifully appointed residence modernised with thought, respect and sensitivity. Grasp this opportunity to secure a stunning property in coveted West Hobart, located on the city fringe within walking distance to the CBD, North Hobart, a fine selection of eateries and leisure activities on picturesque Knocklofty Reserve.
