34 Ogilvie St, Mount Stuart TAS 7000, Australia
Set on a 1404 sqm block of land, this architecturally designed residence has a chic, classic vibe with endless appeal. The high ceilings, beautiful polished floorboards, and consistent use of modern textures and fittings create a home that combines a truly functional, but extremely stylish, feel. North-facing, it captures plenty of natural light and has an array of windows positioned to capture the all-day sun to the best effect. Leafy in its surrounds, it is quiet, private, and has a sense of a more rural location rather than just under 3.5km from Hobart’s CBD. With a self-contained lower level the home has great flexibility for blended or extended families.
The upper level is home to an open plan lounge, dining, and kitchen that have a sliding door leading to the deck. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed to be sophisticated and timeless and has fabulous stainless steel European appliances and plenty of workspace. The bench tops are custom handmade concrete and work beautifully with the white, matte, Shaker-style cabinetry. The expansive, slow-combustion wood heater not only does its job but provides a fabulous focal point for the room and an undeniable ambiance. Three bedrooms are on the upper level, with the master boasting high clerestory windows and ceilings and a large picture window to take in the private external deck. The other two rooms are doubles and all the rooms have built-in robes. The large two-way family bathroom has a walk-in shower, vanity, and separate toilet. The laundry is spacious and can be utilised as a ‘boot room’ with external access and plenty of space to hang jackets and store shoes. The same kitchen cabinetry is also used here to create continuity and functionality. On this level, a study/hobby room gives options galore for that extra multi-use room.
Downstairs features a myriad of different options for use of this extensive space. A kitchen, bathroom, large bedroom, and living/rumpus room create endless options for how to use this level. A great secondary living space, private zone for extended family, or plenty of scope to become whatever is needed for the needs of the next owner. A remote-controlled garage provides external entry to the home and adds good storage. A 4kw solar system has been installed at the property.
The beautiful block provides the green thumb with a fabulous opportunity to add to the existing plantings with vegetable patches, a chicken coop, and plenty of space to create an extensive botanical playground for everyone to enjoy. A short walk to Benjafield Park and recreational oval and Knocklofty Reserve walking tracks mean the kids have it all at their doorstep, while great schools are all around, as are shopping and medical facilities. Mount Stuart is a fabulous location, provides great commuting in every direction, and is a central, much sought-after suburb that provides a great lifestyle.
