8 Mona Street, Battery Point TAS 7004

Elegant, impressive and with commanding street appeal, this circa 1906 property occupies a highly sought-after location in the heart of historic Battery Point. Built in the Queen Anne style and originally constructed as a family home, most recently this expansive property with two street frontages positioned on a generous 752 sqm allotment has been operating as a boutique private hotel, spanning three generously proportioned levels comprising a gross building area of approximately 550 sqm.

Ornate original features meld seamlessly with contemporary updates throughout. Leadlight panels, plaster mouldings, fireplaces with timber and marble surrounds and the grand staircase all pay homage to the home's era, creating a charming ambience and showcasing craftsmanship of a level that is rarely found today.

Modern inclusions of updated kitchen and bathroom facilities complement the early 1900s character across the eight en suite bedrooms and two bedroom suite. Warm and inviting living areas provide ample space as a breakfast room and guest lounge in the current configuration. There is a well-equipped kitchen and living room on the lower level, providing the opportunity to live in and manage the hotel as an owner occupier. For purchasers seeking a statement home, there is enormous potential to reinstate the property as a private residence of stately proportions.

Enjoying all day sun, panoramic water views of the River Derwent encapsulating Marieville Esplanade and Wrest Point may be enjoyed from many of the guest rooms. Whilst others offer an aspect over the charming streets of Battery Point all the way to the mountain. An idyllic central location means an easy walk to local cafes and the iconic Shipwrights Arms; the cafes, restaurants and galleries of the Salamanca strip are also just a short stroll away and the CBD and Sandy Bay Village is nearby. Surrounded by established heritage homes, Mona Street is a tightly held enclave, with properties in this locale rarely entering the market, making this an exceptional opportunity to become the next custodian of a piece of Tasmania's architectural history.
