Welcome to Sinclair House, a stunning 2 bedroom home nestled on 620sqm of beautifully established gardens in the highly sought-after suburb of Taroona, just 15 minutes from Hobart's city centre.
This architectural masterpiece, designed by renowned architect Esmond Dorney, represents a pivotal moment in post-war Australian design. Sinclair House captures Dorney's innovative approach to space, materials and environment, reflecting a shift from pre-war architectural conventions to mid-century modern ingenuity.
The home's signature undulating roof showcases the clever use of locally sawn short-span timber beams, offering a glimpse into Dorney's early exploration of curved formsyears before he perfected them in later projects. Complemented by weatherboard cladding, it exemplifies the limited material options of the time, yet stands today as a beautiful representation of thoughtful design and heritage renovation.

The main living and dining area feature reverse-cycle heating and cooling, ensuring year-round comfort, while a beautiful freestanding wood fire creates a cosy, inviting atmosphere during the cooler months. With two bedrooms, a study and a beautiful relaxing sun room, this home offers space and seclusion.

The recent landscaping and external renovation respect the home's mid-century roots while ensuring it remains a welcoming retreat for modern living.
This unique residence will also feature in the Open House Hobart weekend, giving visitors a rare opportunity to experience the charm and innovation of Dorney's timeless design up close.
