Homes in Glebe do not come up everyday....homes like this rarely come at all!
Perfectly positioned in a tightly held area on the fringe of Hobart's CBD, sits this wonderful home. Cleverly designed to match the classic facade of surrounding properties, you would be forgiven for thinking this had been here for years and years.
Designed by award-winning architect Alex Kostromin, who was awarded prizes by the Australian Institute of Architects as the co-designer of the University of Tasmania Centre for the Arts, Hunter Street, Hobart. Most recently, in 2014 the Australian Institute of Architects awarded its Enduring Architecture Award to the Centre for the Arts.
Step through the front door and you are met with a gorgeous open plan living and dining area. Sunken lounge, recessed cornicing, heated ceilings, the attention to details and finish are astounding. Flowing on from the lounge is the gourmet kitchen and meals area, complete with granite benchtops, imported French double oven and gas cooktop. Beautiful double doors lead out to a secure and extremely private courtyard, perfect for breakfast, lunch and dinner! On this level you will also find the laundry, utility room and second bathroom.
The accommodation is split across two levels, with a good sized guest bedroom and access to one of the garages located on the middle level of the home. Continue up the stairs to a spacious landing which is flooded with light from the extensive use of glass throughout this area. A beautiful spot to spend the afternoon reading a good book.
Two further bedrooms are located on this level, one with a built in robe and the master with it's own walk in robe. Both bedrooms have access to a stunning main bathroom featuring marble tiling, large walk in shower, double vanities, spa bath and a picture perfect window to take in those mountain views.
Within a short walk of the University of Tasmania Hobart city campuses (including the Menzies Research Centre, the Nursing School, Domain House, and the Creative Arts Precinct at Hunter Street and Collins Street). It is also a short walk to the Royal Hobart Hospital, the Theatre Royal, Constitution Dock, Hunter Street and Salamanca Place. Pedestrian bridges are currently being built linking the Glebe to the city (near the Menzies Research Centre in Bathurst Street) as well as to Macquarie Point and the waterfront.
With two single car garages, multiple balconies, classic features, outstanding use of glass and walking distance to all Hobart has to offer...city living does not get any better than this.
This will not last long!
