Dynnyrne TAS 7005

Originally completed after 1853, the home was re-bought in 2003. A fine eye for detail and lots of 'tlc' has successfully maintained the heritage feel of the home. In fact, you could search all over Hobart and never find another comparable example of heritage feel and modern luxury.

While considerable cash has been spent on the preservation of the original features, likewise, no expense has been spared on turning the property into a highly liveable modern-masterpiece.

The front of the home displays mature rose bushes behind a white picket fence and there are landscaped gardens behind the house. A paved pathway leads to a wide, federation style veranda that will be a perfect place to sit and enjoy a view of the park at your leisure. Across the heavy timber threshold, a wide reception area with timber floors and high ceilings separates king-size bedrooms.

Your master bedroom features an open fireplace, romantic interior décor, high ceilings plus a contemporary ensuite and WIR. On the opposite side of the hall is another similar sized bedroom with a big bay window facing the street. This room is currently being used as a large study with a fireplace but could easily be converted to a library or even a smaller third lounge room or music room. Additionally two more sizable bedrooms are available on the second level of the property and offer natural light and lovely views over Fitzroy Gardens.

Between the accommodation and living areas you'll find a retrofitted main bathroom containing modern, high quality fixtures and opaque glass walls. Next room along is a wine cellar, then a North facing sun-room and then a dedicated home office space.

The huge dimensions of the massive formal dining and lounge room include an open fireplace, Baltic pine flooring, heavy skirting boards, picture rails, Georgian style windows and the original plaster ceiling rose suspended above an elegant feature light.

Everyday living is where the modern additions to the home come to the forefront. The open-plan living area includes an entertainment space, family dining area and then onto a magnificent chef's kitchen. You have a Huon-pine island preparation bench, high-end 900mm gas hob, oven, range hood, and thick granite bench tops that are scratch-proof and immune to red hot saucepans. The wall mounted espresso bar will appeal to those who love their morning grind. This area is kept cosy by an attractive natural gas fire.

Windows and glass doors border the backyard from two sides, creating a 'fish bowl' type effect and flooding the home with natural light. The backyard is totally private and contains lighted terracing full of low maintenance mature plants. Half the lawn is covered with a stylishly paved patio that will be a favourite sunny area for weekend entertaining. A spacious light filled garage with internal access is also on offer.
