26 Newdegate Street, North Hobart, Tas 7000

Set in the heart of North Hobart this beautifully restored 1890's cottage offers rare peace and privacy in a city fringe location. Only a short walk to restaurants, cafes and amenities yet tucked away behind a vine covered picket fence and featuring a stunning private garden and off street parking for two cars.

Upon entry from the covered front porch, you are greeted with a traditional layout with the two ground floor bedrooms opening from the entry hallway, both with lush wool carpets underfoot. One features a pine mantel and cosy wood fire as well as built in robes and the other has stunning lead light windows and is generously proportioned. 

The central hall leads to the light-filled open plan living, dining and kitchen area that is brimming with character and has an incredibly homely feel. Another mantel and fireplace add ambience to the living area and French doors lead your eye to the leafy, private garden at the rear of the home. 

The kitchen has been totally upgraded with quality joinery and appliances, stone benches, clever use of space to maximise storage and a functional island bench. The bathroom colour scheme reflects the same tones as the kitchen and has a spa like feel with large timber vanity, walk in shower, brushed brass fittings and a freestanding soaker tub. Cleverly concealed in the bathroom is a European laundry cabinet with additional storage. 

Upstairs, a large master bedroom overlooks the leafy garden and is flooded in natural light.  Featuring a walk-in robe, study area and expansive windows, this is the perfect parent retreat or guest suite.

French doors lead you from the living and dining area to the outdoor space where you can enjoy entertaining family and friends under the expansive pergola and deck, this area is a welcome surprise in this central city location. The garden design centres around a majestic pepper tree providing shade and privacy with pathways and platform decks connecting the rear fire pit to the home along with a handy garden shed for additional storage. 

The garden is filled with established plants including kiwi fruit, apricot, elderberries, wattle and a productive grape vine. Light-filled and private, this is a space to relax and entertain family and friends, or for the kids and pets to play freely. 

A perfect property to enjoy as it is or add to the popular visitor accommodation offerings in North Hobart (STCA). Enjoy the lifestyle of one of Hobart's most sought after inner-city suburbs with a myriad of dining and entrainment options at your doorstep as well as easy access to shopping, local schools and transport. Having been fully restored with attention to detail and quality, the property has a new switchboard, upgraded wiring and plumbing for peace of mind.
