Mid century masterpiece Palm Springs meets Mount Stuart in this well built circa 1952 home that will absolutely delight purchasers with a love for mid-century modern architecture. Renowned Hobart architect Frank Stary who had been recruited from London by Hobart City Council, designed owned and lived in this home up until its sale in 1960 to the current owner. In mint condition throughout, an array of appealing original features of the architectural movement are displayed right across the well considered floorplan that is testament to the avant-garde characteristics of this style that continues to accommodate contemporary living. Conveniently set across one level, spacious semi-open plan living comprising the kitchen with views of the mountain and a dining room with servery forms the heart of the home. Adjacent to this is the generous living room that is drenched in natural light and has an original drystone fireplace and views all the way to the River Derwent. French doors open off this room onto the sunny terrace to create seamless indoor/outdoor living and the perfect spot to enjoy a martini on a summer’s afternoon! Three double bedrooms are located in the other wing of the house, and the master bedroom has BIR and private deck access. A central family bathroom, separate WC and laundry complete the floorplan and a workshop and separate rumpus room is located downstairs. A single garage provides secure parking with further OSP available in the driveway. Positioned on a generous allotment of 994sqm, there is scope to further develop the land (STCA) or leave it as is with the near level, well fenced rear yard proving ideal for a game of backyard cricket or football. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac close to public transport and within walking distance of the popular North Hobart strip, this home is also nearby to Mount Stuart Primary. An exceptional mid-century home brimming with potential and just waiting for its next custodians to move in and enjoy!
