House description

“Exquisitely renovated early 1800s cottage”

Step back in time with this remarkable circa 1830 cottage, a true embodiment of history, character, and charm. Positioned in one of Hobart's most sought-after streets, this quaint gem exudes a timeless allure that is sure to captivate your heart.

This cottage has recently undergone a stunning renovation throughout, with no expense spared in the pursuit of quality and functionality. Every detail has been meticulously considered, resulting in a home that is exquisitely stylish, yet comfortable, while dark stained, original timber skirting boards, floorboards and doors make an unforgettable statement and invoke a true sense of nostalgia.

The cozy living room welcomes an abundance of natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere around the open fireplace. A step up leads you to the dining room, adorned with another original fireplace, and the adjacent kitchen is a masterpiece of culinary delight, featuring top-tier appliances, including a breathtaking Bertazzoni Italia 6 burner oven and stove. The custom designed, solid Tasmanian Oak kitchen's allure is further accentuated by gorgeous travertine tiles and a charming farmhouse sink.

The upper level offers two generously sized bedrooms, both offering breathtaking views overlooking Hobart city and the River Derwent. The main bedroom boasts an exquisite ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and skylight, creating an oasis for relaxation. Meanwhile, the second bedroom retains its original sandstone fireplace, a reminder of the home's rich history.

Completing the picture, a downstairs bathroom continues to impress also with marble tiles and solid brass tapware. Outside, a lovely, low-maintenance courtyard provides a private sanctuary for tranquil moments and al fresco dining.

Currently operating as an Airbnb with the requisite permit, and with the option to acquire fully furnished, it presents an exciting investment opportunity. For those seeking to call this cottage home, it promises a life of timeless beauty, modern comforts, and the prestige of living within this tightly held enclave. With easy access to the city, restaurants, and amenities and absolutely nothing left to do, this cottage embodies peace of mind for years to come.
