5 Duncan St, Montrose TAS 7010, Australia

This immaculately presented 1950s solid, double-brick home is bathed in sunshine and is perfectly positioned on a quiet street that is close to the Montrose Bay foreshore and the amenities of Hobart’s northern suburbs.

Combining the ideal balance of modern convenience with classic period features, the residence retains charm and character while providing a contemporary and relaxing family haven.

A central wood heater nestled within a converted brick fireplace with timber mantle allows for cosy comfort within the main family rooms. The versatile floorplan offers maximum space, with an adjacent sunroom extending the living area via double doors.

The generous culinary space is sleek and functional with ample storage, bench, and cupboard room and features a stand-alone oven with four-burner stovetop. Fresh, blue tiles across the splashback set off crisp whites throughout, and there is plenty of room for family meals within the adjoining dining area.

Each of the two bedrooms contain built-in wardrobes and are filled with natural warmth and light. If required, the sunroom can easily become a third bedroom. The bathroom contains a shower and a vanity, with a separate powder room located nearby.

Timber floorboards line the laundry, with an abundance of space for necessary appliances and everyday essentials with built-in shelving. Additional closet space is located within the hallway.

A large, sun-soaked timber deck at the rear of the home overlooks the expansive lawn and provides the perfect outdoor entertaining setting for al fresco dining or relaxing with a glass of wine or coffee in the sunshine. Ideal for families, the extensive backyard is low-maintenance and completely level, with established trees and greenery dotted throughout the front and back gardens.

Providing an abundance of storage, a large, detached powered workshop/garage (6m X 9m) sits within the grounds, secured by roller doors and offering shelter for multiple vehicles. Ample additional off-street parking is available within the driveway. Dedicated, sheltered wood storage is also at hand.

An easy stroll to local shops, schools, sporting grounds, the waterfront and the cultural arts hub of MONA, this sophisticated and character-filled home provides a wonderful family setting within one of Hobart’s most popular Northern suburbs.
