Best location in Battery Point! Literally a stone’s throw from Salamanca Place and
overlooking Hobart’s busy port and harbour this grand old property (c.1870) must enjoy
one of the best locations of Battery Point. In a street characterised by quaint worker’s
cottages, it is set back from the street via a tree-lined private driveway a rarity in
Battery Point. With off street parking, mountain and water views and all day sunshine
streaming through the window of the main living rooms this is a very pleasant place to
be! The house opens onto a magnificent private garden and the large deck off the living
area provides an exclusive private sanctuary in this highly desirable suburb.
Currently in use as a highly successful BandB this property lends itself to conversion to a
grand family home. Originally the Coach House for Lenna, it has been partially restored
with each of the 6 bedrooms having an ensuite and wardrobe. Two of these rooms –
the original Coach House part of the building and the 2 bedroom suite downstairs have
been imaginatively restored to a magnificent condition. Both the self-contained suite
downstairs decorated stylishly as the Presidential Suite of the Titanic and the Coach
House suite are sumptuous.
The open plan living room / dining / breakfast room overlooks the gardens and the port
of Hobart and is a delightful suntrap in which to while away hours of the day.
With a floor plan modification the house could be converted back to a grand home again
and would indeed be one of Battery Point’s showpiece properties.
