28 Hill Street

West Hobart TAS 7000

There's something incredibly special about a home that has stood for more than a century and at 28 Hill Street, that history is matched by one of West Hobart's most coveted inner-city locations with valuable off street parking for multiple cars.
Dating back to circa 1900, this beautiful weatherboard home has all the character you hope to find in West Hobart, with thoughtful renovations adding modern comfort without taking away the warmth and personality that make homes of this era so loved. Step inside and the character is immediate. Polished timber floorboards, high skirting boards, original brick fireplaces and beautiful mantelpieces tell the story of the home's past, while natural light and updated interiors give it a fresh and welcoming feel. It's the kind of home that feels good from the moment you walk through the door. Set across one surprisingly level and wonderfully practical floorplan, the home also offers something increasingly valuable - flexibility. The accommodation is beautifully separated from the main living spaces and that flexibility gives you the freedom to create the home that works for you. A second living room, bedroom or home office, creative space or quiet retreat, as life changes, this home can change with you. While there is plenty to love exactly as it is, there remains the opportunity to add your own touches over time and make this beautiful old home entirely your own. Perhaps the hardest thing to replicate here is the lifestyle. This is prime West Hobart. Morning coffee, neighbourhood cafs, wonderful restaurants such as "WunderBar & Restaurant" the Train Park and local conveniences are all an easy stroll from home. Wander a little further and you have the restaurants and energy of North Hobart in the other direction, while Hobart's CBD is only minutes away. For families, some of Hobart's most highly regarded schools are also within easy reach, including Lansdowne Crescent Primary School, Guilford Young College and The Friends' School. There's a wonderful sense of community in this pocket of West Hobart, the kind of neighbourhood where you can leave the car at home, walk for coffee, take the kids to the park, head out for dinner and still be home within minutes. For investors, the combination of character, flexible accommodation and an exceptional inner-city position also creates an exciting opportunity, including potential for short-stay accommodation, subject to the necessary approvals. But for those looking for somewhere to call home, 28 Hill Street offers something much harder to quantify.
