Last Listing description (July 2024)

Architecturally designed, six years of careful planning and meticulous construction, first floor apartment 'Rani' is offered to market for the first time. Careful curation of the interior sees materials, fixtures and fittings of the highest quality bringing bespoke elegance to the warm and inviting light-filled apartment.

A vision realised by two Tasmanian locals artfully balancing the rich history of the island with respectful contribution to modern design, 'The Finish Line' nestled on the waterfront in historic Battery Point is one of Hobart's most impressive contemporary apartment developments.

Named 'Rani' in honour of the first line honours yacht in the Sydney to Hobart race's inaugural year in 1945, this association with excellence befits this masterfully executed residence.

The extensive glazing frames panoramic views across the River Derwent. Generously proportioned open plan living forms the heart of the home, with a well-designed kitchen equipped with quality Bosch induction cooktop, range hood, electric oven and dishwasher in addition to a fridge with ice maker and Billi system to dispense hot and chilled water.
An island bench of Icedrift Quartz Stone is complemented by American Oak veneer joinery and Northern Black Butt hybrid floors. Dining flows from the island, and glass sliders open onto a sheltered deck to create seamless indoor/outdoor living. This is an enviable vantage point from which to while away the day watching the ever-changing vista beyond, and of course the Sydney to Hobart fleet sailing across the finish line each year.

Three bedrooms with heritage brick feature walls each have built in robes, plush wool carpet underfoot and an ensuite bathroom tiled in a combination of terrazzo and calacatta marble to provide each occupant their own private accommodation. A powder room with laundry facilities completes the floorplan.

Ducted heating and cooling ensures year-round comfort and NBN connection and secure undercover parking for two vehicles, and private entrance, enhances the amenity and security of the home.

The surrounding neighbourhood offers a vibrant lifestyle in a picturesque historic precinct. The many restaurants, bars, cafes and galleries of the Salamanca Strip, Hobart's Waterfront and Battery Point Village are all within easy walking distance, and the verdant gardens of Princes Park are just across the road.

The History:
Originally constructed in 1929 for the Huon Fruit Growers Company, the metamorphosis of the last remaining historic fruit cannery on the former dock of Sullivan's Cove into exceptional apartment living, is a truly remarkable feat. The release of just two apartments in this boutique complex presents an extraordinary, limited opportunity to acquire an exquisite home in a coveted locale.

A far cry from the site's working port days when cargo ships laden with fruit made their way from the Huon Valley in Southern Tasmania to the Sullivan's Cove cannery for processing, the building has been renamed 'The Finish Line' in homage to the iconic ocean classic, the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race.

Held annually for the past 76 years, this 630 nautical mile duel across the notorious seas of Bass Strait is often decided in the River Derwent, with 'The Finish Line' overlooking the finish line of this internationally acclaimed race. Taking inspiration from the sleek lines of the super yachts synonymous with the Sydney to Hobart, the building's new exterior sits seamlessly and unobtrusively on its waterside site.

'The Finish Line' sets a new standard in apartment living whilst affording the first owners the pinnacle of luxury by accessing residential living in this unsurpassed location for the first time in the site's history, and undoubtedly one of the best viewpoints from, and of, the finish line.
