The Ultimate City-Fringe Sanctuary
Think this:
A classic brick home in a location that speaks for itself — but with a twist you’ll never expect. Just 15 minutes from Hobart’s CBD and 5 minutes from MONA, 40 Glenlusk Road reveals itself as an unexpectedly beautiful retreat, offering a lifestyle that feels worlds away while keeping you effortlessly connected to everything you need.
Step outside and you’re moments from cafés, shops, transport, schools, and the convenience of Claremont and Glenorchy. Yet arrive home and you’re greeted by serenity, sunshine, and the magic of nature at your doorstep.
Whether you’re searching for your first home, a creative hideaway, a city-fringe lifestyle, or an addition to your investment portfolio, this is a property defined by location, lifestyle, and limitless potential.
Inside, the home is surprisingly spacious, offering 3 double bedrooms, 2 single bedrooms or study spaces, 2 bathrooms, a sun-filled lounge with Tasmanian oak floors and a stone fireplace, and flexible spaces that allow you to move right in or add your personal touch over time.
The home enjoys an expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area and the lounge flows beautifully to a huge rear deck — the perfect place to entertain, unwind, and embrace the warmth of this north-facing haven.
Know this:
You’re not just near the lifestyle… you’re on the edge of a private escape. Set on over 2,300m² of gently landscaped grounds, the gardens are a retreat in themselves — complete with a magnificent frog pond, feature waterfall, fruit trees, native plantings, and a wood-fired pizza oven ideal for long summer evenings.
Wake up to fairy-wrens on the sundeck, wander through the gardens with birdsong in the air, or host unforgettable gatherings in your own outdoor sanctuary.
With multiple heating options — an open fireplace, wood combustion heater, and reverse-cycle heat pump — comfort comes effortlessly in every season.
There’s also undercover parking, a generous workshop/wine cellar adding to the sense of retreat while keeping daily living practical and enjoyable.
And when life calls you further afield? You’re only five minutes to Claremont, eight minutes to Glenorchy, and just fifteen minutes to the CBD via the Brooker Highway.
A peaceful lifestyle on a large parcel of land, with all the conveniences of suburbia close by. Residentially zoned in one of Hobart’s tightly held pockets, this property offers exciting possibilities: move in, renovate, rent out, or develop (STCA).
The block is manageable, the position unbeatable, and the opportunity remarkable.
