Private. Peaceful. Perfectly Positioned.
– Original home circa 1957, rebuilt in 2023 – addition of second storey, and comprehensive modification and extension of the ground level. The rebuild has ensured that the mid century design of the original home was incorporated into the owners brief to create a large family home with a nod to the location and original designer’s vision.
– The opportunity is to become the new custodian of this immaculate 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom home with multiple living areas, 2 studies surrounded by a resplendent native garden that will encourage peace and relaxation.
Positioned on the bluff between two of Hobart’s most popular local beaches and tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, 2a Wentworth Street feels like a secret discovered only by those who know where to look. Step inside and you’ll find a home that unfolds slowly — designed not just for living, but for experiencing.
At the top of the beautifully crafted timber staircase, the master suite commands attention. A beautiful picture window frames the Derwent River like moving art, changing with every hour and every season. From the warmth of morning sun to evening reflections across the water, this is a space to pause, breathe and unwind. An additional bedroom, study, full bathroom and a private lounge complete this level, creating a retreat that can be entirely your own.
The ground floor has been thoughtfully designed as the true heart of the home — a place where family and friends naturally come together. At its centre sits the kitchen, a showpiece of craftsmanship and functionality. Appointed with a Miele induction cooktop, Electrolux 900mm oven with steam, bake and air-fry functions and Fisher & Paykel dish drawers, it’s as ready for a quiet weeknight meal as it is for hosting a crowd. A full walk-in pantry with deep shelving and clever storage solutions ensures every item has its place, while the oversized island bench — finished with double cabinetry — invites conversation as much as it does culinary creativity.
Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen, the dining area creates an inviting space for shared meals, which in turn opens into both formal and informal living rooms. These distinct areas offer flexibility for the modern family: one for gatherings and celebrations, the other for quiet retreat or children’s playroom. Expansive double glazed windows invite the landscaped gardens inside, connecting daily life with the beauty outdoors.
Completing this graceful level of the home are an additional three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms and a well-appointed laundry with direct garden access — perfect for busy family routines and effortless entertaining. Every detail has been designed to balance practicality with a sense of warmth and welcome.
Step through to the garden and you’re greeted by a setting that feels worlds away. Native landscaping has been carefully planned to complement the foreshore location, providing colour, privacy and the soothing rustle of trees in the sea breeze. A Sproutwell glasshouse, powered shed and quiet entertaining spaces make it as practical as it is beautiful — a true extension of the home.
From the hardwood weatherboard construction by builder Owen Wise to custom joinery, every detail of this residence speaks of craftsmanship. Double-glazed windows, a 13.8kW solar system, and a zoned heat pump climate control system to ensure year-round comfort and efficiency. Even the garage has been future-proofed, with app-controlled insulated doors and EV-ready wiring.
Life here is private, peaceful and undeniably special. The home enjoys a beautiful sense of seclusion in such a sought-after location. With the Clarence Foreshore Trail at your doorstep, the water just steps away and a home that is ‘move in perfect’ is not just a house — it’s a lifestyle of rare quality.
