About this property

Historic Home, Close to City with views-Sleeps 6

Summary:
Introducing "Wellington Terrace" is a Heritage listed, 3-storey 3-bedroom Victorian terrace, that ticks several boxes, historic, close to the city and with amazing views. Located in Hobarts sought-after city-fringe suburb of the Glebe. Built in 1885 the home is only a 10-minute walk or 5-minute drive to City centre and Salamanca, surrounded by Hobarts sporting precinct, with Hobart Aquatic centre, numerous sporting grounds and running tracks. The beginning of your adventure in Southern Tasmania.

The Space:
Built in 1885, Wellington Terrace lives up to its name with its spectacular uninterrupted views over kunanyi/Mt Wellington over all three levels. The house contains three spacious bedrooms as well as an enormous bathroom, living room, kitchen/dining room, and washroom.
The living room contains a fireplace that is perfect for the cold Tasmanian winters (and summers). Our favourite thing to do is light up the fire and kick back with a nice glass of wine. We also have a 55” Samsung The Frame television with most streaming services available via the high-speed internet and many boardgames to enjoy.
A fully equipped kitchen/dining room is found adjacent to the living room, with French doors that open onto the balcony. An oven, air-fryer, conduction cooktop, dishwasher, and microwave are all provided. Dine on an 1870s Kauri pine table from the Barossa. Basic pantry essentials as well as coffee and tea are provided. A gas-heater keeps the room warm when needed.
Upstairs you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms. Room 1 contains a double-sized bed, built-in wardrobe, and a desk for those inclined to work. Room 2 contains a queen-sized bed as well as views over the city and mountain. Both upstairs rooms have wall-mounted electric heaters. A small washroom/toilet is also found.
Downstairs features a third bedroom with a queen-sized bed, desk, and built-in wardrobe. A large gas-heater is provided. The main bathroom is also located downstairs with a mountain view to be had from the bathtub. There is also a large shower, washing machine and dryer.
Finally, a small outdoor cottage garden can be found with a fire-pit for the colder nights. An abundance of herbs, in addition to tomatoes and strawberries (in the right season!), can be found in the gardens.
The space is fitted with many local and overseas antiques that we have acquired from our travels. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

Guest Access:
Guests have full use of the cottage for the duration of their stay.

The Neighborhood:
The neighborhood surrounding the property offers a relaxing atmosphere while still providing the necessities of inner city living.

With the city being a ten-minute walk away. Glebe is a wonderful suburb filled with historical houses that backs onto the Queens Domain, with an abundance of walking paths, bike trails, sporting grounds, and swimming pool only minutes away.

The closest major supermarket is Woolworths Supermarket in Campbell St, only a five minute drive away. Hill Street Grocer is a wonderful Gourmet Grocer and delicatessen which provides the best quality fresh produce and gourmet Tasmanian products. end of Hill Street a quick 10-minute drive.
The closest major supermarket is Coles Supermarket in Newtown, only a 4 minute drive away.

With Salamanca only being a short walk/ drive away, I would highly recommend going to the iconic Salamanca Markets on a Saturday morning.
I would also recommend the Farm Gate Market, which runs on a Sunday morning from 8.30am to one pm. The market is located on Bathurst Street, between Murray and Elizabeth streets,

Getting Around:
You are walking distance to the CBD, 5 to 10 minutes depending on your fitness level. Buses run regularly from Elisabeth mall in the CBD, timetables can be accessed online on the Metro Tas website.
Taxi: If you need a taxi the telephone number is 131 008.
Uber is available in Hobart.

Family Holiday
A very nice and interesting house with a great view in an attractive part of town. Just 10 mins walk to the ferry wharf. The leasing is managed by some very considerate people who kindly returned some lost property back to me in Sydney. Thanks guys!
