296 Davey St, South Hobart TAS 7004

Extensive, tasteful renovations have been carried out to create a light-filled, spacious, and inviting family home, fitted with every modern convenience. Open-plan living, with under-floor heating, is encased by floor-to-ceiling glazing at the rear of the home, overlooking the landscaped grounds. Electric, remote-controlled blinds retain warmth within the glass atrium.

The sophisticated living space incorporates dining, and the state-of-the-art kitchen, boasting premium European appliances, a walk-through pantry, abundant storage, and a stylish sliding frosted glass splashback. The ultimate entertaining house, a climate-controlled cellar with independent cooling system is within easy reach of the inspired culinary space.

Continuing through the expansive ground floor, a formal dining room or fifth bedroom branches from the wide hallway, and a sumptuous formal lounge occupies the front of the home. Two of the home's numerous bedrooms are located on the lower level, both with built-in wardrobes. Ideal for a guest's retreat, the largest of the two contains a lavish en-suite.

Elegant, modern style flows throughout each of the bathrooms, of which there are four in total, two on each floor.

Ascending the impressive staircase, where original Luke Wagner artwork presides, further luxurious accommodation is found. The master bedroom boasts magnificent mountain views and an abundance of sunshine through double-glazed windows, and contains built-in and walk-in wardrobes, and an en-suite. The second, generous bedroom features built-ins, and an ornamental fireplace with mantle.

A glorious sunroom bathes in natural light, overlooking the leafy streetscape and captivating mountain peaks, and a north-facing home office also captures plentiful sun at the opposite end of the storey. Completing the upstairs floorplan, the bathroom features a free-standing bathtub, walk-in shower, and a frosted glass-topped vanity, with ample storage, and a separate toilet.

Returning downstairs, a striking lightning-bolt shaped skylight above the innovative living and dining space adds yet another unique touch to the remarkably designed home. Glass sliding doors extend to the outdoor entertaining area, perfect for hosting family and friends within the secluded urban oasis with established trees, manicured hedges, luscious green lawn, and extensive decking with bench seating.

Transformations throughout provide the epitome of futureproofed comfort, with LED downlights across both levels, privacy window film, and a combination of wooden plantation shutters, block out curtains, and honeycomb blinds. Year-round comfort is provided by electric panel heating in each room of the house, along with reverse-cycle air and under-floor heating within the living area.

A multi-zone security alarm system, operational by remote control, smartphone app and LCD touchscreens, along with an Amplimesh security screen on the front door, and wrought iron electric sliding gates with video intercom ensure complete security.

Externally, further improvements have been made, including a new heritage council certified French terracotta-tiled roof, new fencing, electric outdoor and garden lighting, new paving and landscaping with an automated irrigation system, and new bitumen throughout the driveway. In 2017, the entire home was re-painted both inside and out. The front fence has been reconstructed utilising old bricks to comply with heritage requirements.

Adding to its appeal that already exceeds expectation, the residence is within close proximity to prestigious schooling, and UTAS, along with cafes, restaurants, and amenities of the South Hobart district, and within walking distance of Hobart's CBD.

The exquisitely constructed home of exceptional quality, with the addition of architecturally designed excellence, allows this remarkable property of generous dimensions and refined elegance to provide an enviable lifestyle, within historic, exclusive surrounds.
