The lower ground floor comprises an entirely self-contained apartment consisting of living, kitchen/dining, double bedroom and bathroom. A second double bedroom and bathroom with freestanding bathtub are located off the verandah, along with storage and two additional rooms. A stone walled cellar featuring an early barrel chute is also located on this level completing the floorplan.

A Hobart landmark with a long and rich history, Lumeah was originally built as a grand residence and officer's club. A charming and interesting mix of refined and rustic elements have been retained throughout the home's renovation with much preserved heritage to admire. Multiple fireplaces, servant's bells, a double cast iron cooking range with original tiles, exposed convict brick and stone walls, wrought iron accent on the verandah and a tessellated tile entrance all enhance the character and ambience of the property. Extensive restoration work preserves these original features for years to come whilst upgrades to the plumbing, wiring, lighting, insulation, and heating provides modern comfort and amenity.

The rambling, old world garden with brick floored potting shed complements the home beautifully. Picturesque with magnificent mature Magnolias, Maples, Japanese Cherry and Wisteria, there is space to relax and entertain outdoors. A garage and off street parking for two additional vehicles is also contained within the grounds.

Desirably located within a stone's throw of the CBD, Hobart's Waterfront and the cosmopolitan Salamanca strip, Lumeah is an extraordinary offering of a substantial, heritage holding in a highly sought after locale. A truly rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional property and become custodian of an enduring piece of Tasmania's history.
