To bring this gorgeous Federation beauty back to its former glory has been a labour of love for the current owner and a testament to the hard work and dedication restoring homes such as this take.
Built in 1895 and stunningly restored this home is more than move in ready. The feeling when you walk through the doors is a feeling of… "I'm home"…
With an abundance of period features mixed with a stylish contemporary feel, this home has it all.
The dine-in kitchen is a generous size complete with gorgeous Tasmanian Oak floorboards, a large walk in pantry and a free-standing gas oven. The kitchen is in keeping with the period and the star centre piece is the original brick fireplace, this coupled with the Baltic Pine wall makes for a room not only functional but also just gorgeous.
The lounge room, huge is size has the opportunity to double as a formal dining room/lounge room. Here you will find the lovely natural gas Rinnai heater, set beautifully into the original fireplace, and as a further bonus this home also has natural gas hot water. A stunning feature of this home is the Italian plaster walls that are featured through the house, the first hint of this is the fireplace in the lounge room.
As with homes from this period the gorgeous bedrooms are large in size, the master having a stunning wall of built-in-robes compete with dressing table. Bedroom 3 also has a built-in-robe.
Now to the bathroom… and what a masterpiece this is. The opportunity to capture a mixture of style and sophistication has not been lost here… from the magnificent exposed brick wall, to the glorious claw foot bath and stunning walk-in-shower, this room is breathtaking. Gosh even the laundry is amazing!
Now to outdoors… your very own Italian inspired fully fenced courtyard, complete with a woodfired pizza oven and space to light the BBQ. What a gorgeous spot to bring the family together.
Not to forget the magnificent shed… a 3 bay shed with an electric roller door. The doors are higher than standard to accommodate a caravan or motor home and there is also a further parking area that can easily accommodate plenty of off street parking.
MacFie Street, what a magnificent area… where do I start. You are literally right in the heart of the CBD with access to gorgeous cafes, restaurants and all the other conveniences you would expect of a City this size. The Living City Precinct is up and running with stage 2 of construction now underway.
This has literally brought our beautiful City to life with a new large carpark, the Paranaple Centre and Provedore place where you can wander through the market, taste the fine foods and watch sporting events on the big screen.
Devonport is the gateway to Tasmania where you will never get tired of watching the Spirit of Tasmania enter the harbour loaded with tourists.
Homes such as this, in such a delightful area are hard to find and don't last long on the market. So please pick up the phone and call the listing agent Wendy Squibb, I will be delighted to show you through.
