Location, location!

Welcome to 21 De Witt Street, Battery Point. A home recognised for its heritage significance and perfectly located in one of Hobart's most prestigious suburbs. Can you imagine yourself living here?<br/><br/>Built circa 1849, Battery Cottage is a conjoined Georgian style cottage that is a delightful fusion of old and new. The cottage, with its striking shutters and window box, presents a picture-perfect façade nestled behind a white picket fence. The modern extension at the rear is sympathetic and is enhanced by a lovely cottage style garden.<br/><br/>Upon entry there is a sense of delight towards the preservation of its heritage features. Original timber floorboards, skirtings, and fire surrounds on the first level create a sense of warmth and elegance, and the two expansive rooms on this level boast high ceilings and an abundance of natural light, with the rear bedroom boasting views over the suburb to kunanyi/Mount Wellington and the city.<br/><br/>Heading downstairs, the property's modern extension takes full advantage of its north westerly position. The open plan kitchen and dining area has double-glazed tri-fold doors that open to a timber entertaining deck with a louvre roof system and privacy screen. Beyond the decking a paved area offers another area to enjoy the outdoors. It is a perfect place to sit and look out at the garden. Raised garden beds and easily accessible paths, together with a rear shed make the garden area easy to maintain.<br/><br/>Back inside the kitchen is a delight for any chef. Think granite benchtops and top end appliances including a Siemens wall oven, induction hotplates and rangehood. There is plenty of bench space and cupboards to hide almost anything and a servery to the lounge room is well-considered. Skylights above the kitchen enhance the natural light into the area, and the Tas Oak flooring is hard wearing and easy to maintain.<br/><br/>The modern spacious bathroom offers a touch of luxury with its free-standing bath placed below yet another skylight. There is a separate shower and vanity too, but the addition of floor to ceiling windows in part of the bathroom enhance the sense of space.<br/><br/>Behind the kitchen and dining area sits the lounge room, complete with a Masport wood heater and a library alcove. Beyond, looking towards the street, sits either a potential third bedroom or a study that is equipped with its own desk and another alcove with exposed sandstone that could potentially be used as a wine cellar.<br/><br/>Move straight in and enjoy or add your own personal touches (STCA). This is a property not to be missed.<br/><br/>Please note that this property is listed on the Tasmanian Heritage Register and the Hobart City Council's local heritage list. Piano not included with the property.<br/>
