“Secret behind the facade”
If life is like a box of chocolates because you don't know what you are going to get till you open it up, then this turn of the century character home in the popular suburb of North Hobart is a true reflection. Around every corner and doorway is a surprise, not to mention the most amazing multi level private backyard with established trees, a bird aviary and tree house that children will love exploring and you will love entertaining in.
A solid street level garage makes access to this period home easy, stepping out of the 21st century and into peace and tranquillity.
On the ground level is all of the living area. An open plan galley style kitchen and casual family room is warm and inviting with skylights to fill the area with natural light. A paved patio, original sandstone feature wall and fernery is a pleasant outlook, with access through double French doors.
From the family room, lovely double doors open up to the formal living room with original fireplace and period features and a formal dining room, making this a substantial entertaining living area all on the one level. There is a study nook in what is a clever usage of the space.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms, two with their own verandah and access to the backyard. Three have built-in wardrobes and the character of the dormer windows and sloped rooftop is a feature.
The master bedroom has a beautiful recessed spa bath and separate shower with skylights to let the outdoors in.
The selection of colours, both inside and out, is true to the Victorian era in which this home was built and adds to the character and look and feel of the home.
The established garden is a real attraction and will delight children and adults. From its top tier you can look directly at the Domain and to the city rooftops, making it a real sanctuary in a highly sought after suburb.
The home is located opposite the historic North Hobart oval and the popular restaurants and cafs of the area and the CBD are a short walk. A variety of schools are also walking distance and transport is on your doorstep, making this a great family home for discerning buyers who appreciate history.
