Property details

A Historic Canvas, Awaiting Your Vision

Set proudly upon a fully-utilised, level allotment, this grand c.1909-1911 largely-original residence offers a rare blend of historic character, exceptional scale, and a prestigious Sandy Bay address that is simply unrivalled for convenience.

Lovingly held by the same family for over 60 years, this home has been the venue for generations of cherished moments, including family weddings in the backyard and marking the walk to Holy Spirit Church for the owners' children.

Step inside and be immediately welcomed by the timeless street appeal and a façade that is near one-of-a-kind for this coveted area. Period features including original Tasmanian timber hardwood floors on both levels, soaring high ceilings, prominent picture rails, gorgeous bay windows, and elegant mantels have been carefully preserved, celebrating the home's history.

The proportions of some internal rooms are exceptional and unmatched. The home is further distinguished by its Atrium, a unique, full-glass-roofed area that effortlessly draws natural sunlight deep into the home. In years gone by, the home was dubbed the 'Hibiscus Art Gallery', forming part of Tasmania's art history.

Over the years, the residence has been configured for various uses and family sizes. For added financial appeal, the layout was previously adapted to incorporate two separate studio apartments downstairs, both successfully rented with their own side accesses, highlighting its potential for dual living or a substantial income stream.

A short stroll from your new doorstep you'll enjoy Short Beach (where you'll find parks, a dog park, and a boat ramp for adventures on the Derwent River), the Royal Yacht Club, Lawn Bowls, Coles, 6-Russell, and the comprehensive amenity of Sandy Bay Village and the Magnet Court Shopping Complex, with easy access to the local bus routes, and highly-regarded schools.

Although this home will most-likely undergo restoration and upgrades in the years to come, we implore you to visit and secure this lovely, irreplaceable family residence before its next chapter begins.
