The space
** AS FEATURED IN NYA RUM (SWEDEN), THE DESIGN FILES (AUSTRALIA), GOURMET TRAVELLER (AUSTRALIA), HOUSE & GARDEN (AUSTRALIA) AND HOMES & GARDENS (UK) **

Seaview joins a classic federation home with a Japanese inspired architecturally designed extension, located over a single level, to create a beautiful and generous space to relax in Hobart. The home has been thoughtfully styled throughout and includes individual pieces sourced from Tasmania and further afield.

There are three spacious bedrooms all with king sized beds, luxurious linen sheets, electric blankets and cosy doonas. Attached to the master bedroom is an ensuite with under floor heating.

The Japanese inspired extension features exposed Tasmanian timbers and curving celery top ceilings. It includes an open plan kitchen, living and dining area with a wood fire. It is surrounded by windows and wooden Japanese style verandahs. There is also a bathroom with both a shower and a bath, and a laundry. There is a fully functioning kitchen if you feel like cooking, including staples such as olive oil, salt, pepper, tea, coffee etc.

The extension is seamlessly joined to the original federation home. This part of the house has a wide central hallway, three spacious bedrooms and a moody lounge room, perfect for enjoying a Tasmanian whiskey. The federation half of the house is surrounded by bull nose verandahs and there are many quiet corners to curl up and enjoy a good book.

The entire home has ducted heating and cooling. There is also a wood fire. You are guaranteed to be cosy and warm. There is high speed internet, ultra high definition TV, Netflix and a blue tooth wireless sound system.

Seaview is located on the edge of the Queens Domain, which is an extensive area of urban park and native bushland incorporating trails for runners, walkers and cyclists. It is a fifteen minute stroll from Seaview though the Queens Domain to The Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens.

Neighborhood highlights

The Glebe is a small suburb in the centre of Hobart. It is on the edge of the Queens Domain, which is a area of natural bushland and parks. Seaview is the last house in the Glebe on the edge of the bush. The natural bush creates a rural feel, even though it is only a short distance to the centre of Hobart. It is a seven minute drive to the waterfront, Salamanca or North Hobart, or a 20-25 minute walk if you are feeling energetic (walking home is uphill).
