6 Hampden Road, Battery Point TAS 7004

Privately positioned overlooking the River Derwent, this circa 1925 home has been built in the classic Arts and Crafts style of its era. Contemporary updates sensitively implemented by the current owners have culminated in an interior of timeless elegance and coupled with the property's unsurpassed location on the junction of historic Battery Point and Salamanca, this is a home that offers an enviable lifestyle amongst picturesque surrounds.

The entry level comprises a series of spacious and light filled interconnected living areas flowing from the entry foyer, with the open plan living and dining room opening onto the sunroom showcasing superb views over the harbour. The contemporary kitchen is tastefully designed and well-appointed with quality European appliances, ample storage with two pantries, casual dining area and extensive double glazing capturing the ever changing vista beyond. Both the kitchen and sunroom open onto the sunny north facing terrace, to create seamless indoor/outdoor living and an unsurpassed vantage point for watching the finish of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race each year.

The original timber staircase to the upper level reveals the private master suite enjoying panoramic water views, spacious walk in robe and ensuite bathroom. Three further bedrooms are located on this floor, two with built in robes are serviced by the central family bathroom, and the third has a walk in robe and powder room. This room is large enough that it could alternatively be used as a family room and further flexible living space is provided with an attic room.

Attractive original features including stained glass windows, ornate timber work, light fittings and picture rails enhance the ambience of the home. With quality fixtures and fittings throughout, upgrades to the roof, plumbing, wiring and insulation, and gas hot water and a combination of gas and electric heating ensure modern comfort. Outside the home is surrounded by established gardens and there is a garage, workshop, wine cellar and parking for up to five vehicles.

Within easy walking distance of many local cafes, restaurants, bars and the galleries and boutiques of Hobart's waterfront, this home delivers vibrant city fringe living in an exceptional pocket of Hobart. Impressive in every way, this is an unmissable opportunity to buy a warm and inviting character filled home in this tightly held locale.
