16 Rupert Avenue, Mount Stuart, Tas 7000

A rare offering in the prestigious and peaceful enclave of Mount Stuart, 'Claymore' stands as an exquisite testament to the city's rich architectural history while providing complete comfort and modern family living.  

Nestled among other grand period homes, and a wonderful family friendly community, this magnificent property embodies Art Deco and Edwardian influences, seamlessly marrying timeless elegance with contemporary comfort. 

Set back from the street amidst glorious gardens, the property is a private sanctuary, radiating an inviting warmth. Ornate fretwork, intricate stained-glass windows, polished timber flooring, and soaring ceilings set the tone for the grandeur that unfolds within.

Spanning two generous levels, the home is thoughtfully designed for both refined entertaining and relaxed family living. The sun-drenched formal lounge exudes charm, while the open-plan dining and casual sitting room flow effortlessly to a secluded courtyard and a sheltered al fresco entertaining space. 

At the heart of the home, a state-of-the-art, renovated kitchen showcases spacious benchtops, an induction cooktop, a dishwasher, and ample storage including a walk-in pantry. The double-door stainless-steel fridge has the option to remain in-situ.  

Offering up to five bedrooms, all occupying the upper-floor, the accommodation is as luxurious as it is versatile. The master bedroom is a private retreat, complete with tranquil water glimpses, a balcony, walk-in wardrobe and a sunken en-suite featuring dual vanities, a walk-in shower, a freestanding bath, and a toilet. 

Another bedroom enjoys its own en-suite, while the home is further serviced by a sophisticated main bathroom upstairs and a chic powder room conveniently located on the lower level. Upstairs, a stunning sunroom captures wonderful views, which can easily become the fifth bedroom if desired.

Beyond the interiors, the property's meticulously landscaped grounds create an enchanting backdrop. Manicured lawns, sculpted hedges, and a spectacular array of mature trees, including a Weeping Mulberry and Liquidambar, enhance the home's striking street appeal at the front, with Manchurian Pear, Birch and Maple trees presiding over the backyard. 

Secret garden sanctuaries and vibrant floral displays surround private outdoor entertaining areas, while an advanced irrigation system ensures the front gardens and lawns remain impeccable year-round.

Modern comforts abound, with gas heating in both living areas, a pellet heater in the sitting room, panel heating, and reverse-cycle air conditioning throughout. Sustainability is at the forefront with solar panels and solar hot water, and double-glazed windows within the sitting area, while an advanced back-to-base security system, remote-accessed driveway gate, and a fully fenced perimeter offer peace of mind. A secure garage provides convenient access through to the rear courtyard.

The property enjoys an abundance of storage solutions, including a garden shed, adjacent workshop, internally throughout the property, and beneath the house, accessible via two separate doors. 

Superbly located just moments from the North Hobart restaurant and entertainment precinct, Friends' School, and Calvary Hospital, with the CBD, boutique shopping, and cafés all within walking distance, 'Claymore' presents an unparalleled opportunity to secure a landmark home of rare distinction in Mount Stuart.
