1 Macfarlane Street

South Hobart TAS 7004

Enviously positioned within easy walking distance to the centre of Hobart, this solid, circa 1915 cottage, was built as the carriage driver's residence for one of the original farm estates on the Hobart Rivulet. Surviving the 1967 bushfires, and standing the test of time this home could reveal many a story from its occupants over the years, and as sad as it may be to finish another chapter, this home eagerly awaits to start the next, and its story is far from over.

For those who desire a sustainable lifestyle, this cottage is well on the way. The edible garden, which has been maintained organically since 2001, is planted out with an array of herbs, medicinal plants and a selection of producing fruit trees, which include a nectarine, lemon, Moorpark apricot and 2 varieties of pear.

Like many designs complimentary of the era, this home offers 3 very generously sized bedrooms, all appreciating their own unique aspect. With gorgeous 3000mm high ceilings and original King Billy Pine windows throughout, with a little restoration this home has the potential to be a magnificent residence.
