Proudly held for more than 34 years and testament to the owners' attachment to their very stylish Victorian cottage which enjoys a superb position in the heart of North Hobart. Strahan Street, named after a former Governor of Tasmania, number 8 is located less than 200 metres away from North Hobart's iconic eateries. Lovingly renovated with glamour and style by the current owners to now offer a gorgeous one-bedroom cottage, the floorplan expansive, the sheer luxury of space over 2 levels immediately appealing.
Generous living accommodation spanning the ground level… with open plan and defined zones comprising a living/dining area as well as a well-appointed eat-in kitchen. The original veranda has been enclosed to become a sunroom or fabulous home office independent of the main living areas…at the rear there is a combined laundry and second bathroom, which is ideal for guests.
Upstairs, there was once two separate bedrooms configured on this level, now transformed into one enormous bedroom featuring an ensuite bathroom, built in wardrobes and a pretty bay window…a wonderful addition injecting natural light and warmth which now permeates the space.
Conveniently connected to mains gas providing hot water, gas cooking and heating in the form of an ambient fire built in to one of the original fireplaces.
Outdoors provides great options for entertaining or relaxing, with an extensive paved courtyard garden. Enjoy all day sun when entering this space and there is easy access adjacent to the side boundary. You will enjoy bearing the fruits of a mature and healthy lemon tree, perfect for complementing those long summery drinks when dining alfresco! A small shed will provide secure storage for garden tools.
There is also valuable off-street parking for 1 car which is a real bonus in the area.
This delightful abode is blessed with a timeless quality …interiors with a neutral colour palette allowing the new caretaker to easily introduce their own personality and style into this gem of a property. A fine use of timber such as the fretwork and windows add character.
Most of the important 'big ticket' items have already been upgraded, such as the roof and guttering, fresh exterior paint, new fencing with both electrical and gas upgrades.
North Hobart's Elizabeth Street precinct is only moments away and is one of the busiest streetscapes in Hobart with a plethora of restaurants, cafes and boutiques to choose from. The State Cinema is also close by and is a real draw card. This city fringe location is vibrant with a sense of community, offering a convenient inner-city lifestyle, so be decisive and grasp this superb opportunity to invest in one of the most sought-after locales within walking distance of our capital's CBD. State cinema is also within proximity and is a real draw card.
