358 Argyle Street, North Hobart TAS 7000

It's probably caught your eye a hundred times, when driving through North Hobart - it has that kind of elegant presence. Built by the Hobart Town mayor's brother as a country gentleman's substantial "town house" this circa 1890's terrace exudes the best of Victorian character and charm. With the generous proportions, space and style of the period, coupled with sympathetic contemporary upgrades, it is also the ideal city abode.

Visually striking from the street, inside the home is just as grand, showcasing an array of original features such as high ceilings, bay windows, ornate ceiling roses, double hung sash windows, original fire places and exposed floorboards. The neutral colour palette and modern updates throughout lend a light touch to the traditional, providing an inviting home ready to move in to.

The spacious open living area is bathed in sunlight, designed around a charming bay window. It flows through to the formal dining zone, great for hosting dinner parties and providing a very generous combined space.

The recently renovated galley kitchen features soft close drawers and ample cupboard space for added convenience, while the bathroom is neatly presented with a shower over bath, and new toilet and vanity. The laundry is separate with easy access to the hanging area.

Upstairs two of the three bedrooms are generously proportioned, both featuring built in robes and fireplaces. One looks out on Argyle St and the North Hobart Oval while the other offers a leafy backyard view. Either is big enough to be the master bedroom. The third smaller single bedroom is ideal for use as a nursery or study with elevated views over North Hobart Oval. The top floor hallway includes a nook perfect for a work station.

Add to all of this off street parking (via Ryde Street) and a low maintenance secure terraced backyard, all just blocks from the heart of North Hobart's restaurant and shopping district, this home is ideal for those wanting their own city fringe retreat whilst remaining close to the action.
