Beautifully situated at the Davey Street end of Wentworth Street is a substantial two storey residential property currently the subject of a stratum plan proposal, is the veritable 'diamond in the rough' configured as 3 spacious, self contained apartments each with their own private entrance.
The opportunity now arises to purchase the entire footprint and restore the residence to a single residence/ townhouse of grand proportions or continue with the stratum potential.
The building, circa 1890, is constructed of brick and sandstone and is a lovely example of the Federation Queen Anne architectural style. The distinctive name of the property is so called after the island, Raasay off the coast of Scotland and has been decoratively etched in sandstone on the facade.
Apartment 1 is the largest of these apartments, approximately 200sqm in size and enjoys a ground floor position, an entrance which would have been the original front door with 2 very generously proportioned living areas. There are up to 3 or 4 bedrooms with one bathroom and an adjacent laundry. Enjoying a north westerly aspect, which opens to an elevated timber deck. Big picture windows at the rear frame leafy vistas and allow for an abundance of natural light and sunshine. The floor plan is entirely flexible.
The interiors have been rewired but do require some renovation but have fabulous lines and potential. There are some really nice features of the era including high ceilings, double hung timber sash windows and panelled doors.
A vibrant village strip dotted with cafes, gourmet food stores and services offers an enviable lifestyle. Walk or cycle along the scenic Hobart Rivulet with a direct link to the CBD.
