Last Listing description (October 2016)

This beautiful character home, built during the first world war retains much of its original charm. The floor boards are Baltic Pine, the original archways, skirtings, four panel doors and much of the period glass work remain intact. The floor plan is flexible and offers up to four double bedrooms if required. The spacious and extended open living area at the rear has been constructed in sympathy with the ambience of the home. This area offers a spacious eat in kitchen with gas cooking together with a generous sitting and family area, all of which open up to the relatively private garden lawn area at the rear. From both the living and garden there are fabulous city, suburb and water views.
A remotely controlled lock up single garage (a very rare commodity for this area) completes the home.
The property itself is located in arguably West Hobart's most highly sought street within a short walking distance of the Hobart C.B.D., a manageable distance from Salamanca Place and central Sandy Bay, plus South Hobart Village.
