8 Toorak Ave, Mount Stuart TAS 7000, Australia
We are truly privileged to bring to the market “Laudaire”, one of Hobart’s iconic mansions.
Finished to exacting standards, this C.1926 home has, in recent years, been extensively renovated, and extended, to offer the most comfortable 21st Century living, whilst retaining the charm and character of her stately history, including impeccable timberwork and beautiful stained glass.
Extending over 3 levels, a large family will live in comfort with a flexible floorplan offering many living options. The sun-drenched social spaces are generously proportioned with both formal living and dining rooms together with multiple casual zones.
Always the hub of the home, the kitchen is a masterpiece in itself. Expansive marble bench tops are complimented by European appliances and a wealth of storage options together with a Butler’s pantry. A gorgeous Huon pine bench is a clever design feature enabling guests to sit and chat to the family chef or (and most importantly) children to do homework whilst still being absolutely engaged with parents. This home really is incredible in the way that parents can be actively involved with children of all ages, essentially from the kitchen; with line of sight to the garden, the casual living areas and the study, we love that about this home. There’s nothing better about summertime here, than opening up a wall of glass doors to the beautiful outdoors and letting the outside, in.
Ascending the imposing staircase, 5 beautiful bedrooms will not disappoint. Spacious, serene and stylish each offers absolute luxury, serviced by decadent bathrooms with designer fittings and fixtures. There are 2 additional bedrooms on the main level of the property.
Outdoors, the exceptional standard of the gardens is complimentary of the standard you’ve come to expect of the home. Expansive (1,734m2 approx) terraced, manicured grounds (which feature box hedges, fruit trees and lush lawns) ensure children and pets will play in safety. For those who love sport, this is the perfect playground to enjoy summer time cricket, a hit of hockey, a game of soccer or a bounce on a trampoline. Additionally, there is a triple garage and off street parking for several vehicles.
Toorak Avenue is one of Hobart’s premiere addresses. 4 doors away, you have Calvary Hospital, and you’re in walking distance of Friends School and North Hobart Restaurants, this is an incredibly convenient location.
