454 Elizabeth Street

North Hobart TAS 7000

With flexible urban mixed-use zoning, the property presents as a substantial family home of rare pedigree, while also affording scope for a range of alternative commercial uses, subdivision, or development (STCA). Whether treasured as a generational residence or reimagined for new possibilities, Arcadie stands as one of Hobart's most notable heritage residences taken to market, in this sought after location, for quite some time.

A grand entry foyer, accessed via the front verandah, immediately sets the tone of elegance carried throughout the home's two expansive levels. The ground floor is dedicated to refined living and entertaining, offering a series of gracious reception rooms including a generously proportioned living room, a formal dining room, a charming sitting room, a sunroom bathed in natural light, and the family kitchen. Practicality is also well considered, with laundry facilities, storage room, and a bathroom completing this level.

The staircase ascends to the upper level, where a grand primary suite is a private retreat with direct access to the sunroom with water views and an adjoining study or nursery, providing exceptional versatility. Three further well-proportioned bedrooms and a central family bathroom complete this floor, ensuring ample accommodation for family and guests.

Ornate timber panelling, high ceilings, leadlight windows and picture rails and original fireplaces with surrounds enrich the home's character, while modern enhancements, including an electric fireplace in the dining room and central heating ensure year-round comfort.

The established grounds are equally enchanting, with a canopy of mature fruit trees, lawns proven to host many a backyard cricket match, and a gazebo providing a picturesque setting for outdoor entertaining. A garage, garden shed and workshop further enhance the property's amenity.

Positioned just moments from The Friends' School and other excellent schools, Hill Street Grocer, the vibrant North Hobart café and dining strip, and public transport, this coveted address promises an unrivalled lifestyle of both convenience and charm. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial holding and become the next custodian of Arcadie, carrying forward its rich heritage and cherished memories.
