63 Hobart Street, Mount Hawthorn WA 6016

If you love heritage architecture, 63 Hobart Street is a property you don?t want to miss out on. Properties that have such a striking & unique personality don?t often come up for sale!

Balancing 1930s charisma with high luxury, this former workers? cottage is a proud example of character building that has been artfully brought into the 21st Century without the loss of its Art Deco charm.

Restored 2012, the front rooms retain their original leadlight windows, fabulous Jarrah joinery and solid Jarrah floors. The house was restored true to its age with the best materials right down to its understated Art Deco lighting features. At the rear, the home unfolds into a breathtaking new extension (completed in 2015), which holds the main living & entertaining hub. Cathedral ceilings tower at a height of more than 7-metres, and the incredible feature wall gives a nod to decades gone by.

Huge remote-control gable windows ensure the space is washed with natural light and fresh air, while a wall of bi-fold doors create an easy flow out to the alfresco zone and low maintenance garden.

Back inside, the interior includes a massive 270sqm of floor space, with 3 living areas. An amazing loft space could be used a theatre, additional bedroom, play area or activity room. The study has its own private entrance, comfortably allowing for a home business to be kept separate from the main part of the house.

Although it?s true to its roots, the home is shamelessly modern in the places where it needs to be ? bathroom, kitchen and storage systems! The floor plan also offers the space and flexibility to easily add an ensuite or additional bathroom should you wish.

The kitchen is equipped with an extra-wide 1200mm oven by Smeg, range hood, LG dishwasher and 40mm stone benchtops. A jarrah slab atop the breakfast bar takes pride of place visually, while the hidden work area and 33 soft-close drawers make this a wonderfully practical place to cook up a storm.

The home also offers a range of energy efficient features ? including double glazing to east and west facing windows and laminated glass to the south. Substantial insulation is accommodated in the oversized rafters, and the 5.5Kw solar system. The solar system is a 5kW Sunnyboy inverter (German) and 24 panels (Tier 1) and is in the top rebate scheme scheme (47c/kWh), The last credit was + $624 after usage (61 days). With the seasonal fluctuations the solar system pays around $2400 per year after usage.

Last but certainly not least, this home has an unbeatable location, a 3 minute walk from Hobart Deli (consistently ranked as one of the in the best breakfasts in Perth in the Good Food Guide), and 6-10 minutes? walk to either Mt Hawthorn Village or the buzzing shopping area around Angove Street. It?s in the catchment for the very popular Mt Hawthorn Primary, and Aranmore Catholic School is also close by.

Properties like this don?t come up often ? this is a must see!
