64 Lochner Street, West Hobart

VICTORIAN ELEGANCE: C21st STYLE

Built circa 1880, this sensitively renovated four bedroom, three bathroom home in a quiet West Hobart street conveys a sense of grandeur. With style and quality, the property has been brought into the 21st Century while retaining many features of the Victorian era: its Italianate entrance, its sandstone decorative features, and its broad verandah with gracious steps leading to landscaped, established gardens.

The entire four bedroom, three bathroom home has been sensitively renovated over the past five years bringing it into the 21st Century, while retaining many of the beautiful features of the Victorian era: elaborate cornices, deep skirting boards, delicately painted woodwork, and magnificent ceiling roses. The main entrance features intricately designed leadlight stained glass in traditional Victorian patterns, complemented by geometrically patterned Victorian Italianate floor tiles in the entrance hall. On the left of the hallway is the spacious sitting room with its elegant, relaxing mood. A grand arch divides the original 'front of house' from the general living area to the rear, with the primary bedroom, walk-through wardrobe and stylish, quality, contemporary en suite leading off to the right. To the left is a generously sized dining room with adjacent state-of-the-art kitchen restored to its original location, allowing once again for the use of the traditional servery between the two. Two bedrooms with built-in robes and a second bathroom, all designed with the same taste and quality as the primary suite, have been included in this section of the home. The kitchen, with walk-in pantry, opens onto a contemporary, family living area that attracts the sun for much of the day, while sliding doors open onto a delightful courtyard: ideal for alfresco living. A passage leads from this area to a fourth bedroom with en suite and gives direct access to a double garage. The gardens of the property have been sensitively redesigned by the current owners, reflecting the original layout, while judicious planting ensures minimum maintenance for busy 21st Century lives.

The location of this property is only a 5 minute drive to the Hobart CBD, a 3 minute drive to the North Hobart shopping strip, or an easy 6 minute walk. The gourmet Hill St Grocer is a 4 minute walk away and both public and private schools are within a 1.5 kilometre radius.
