26 Derwentlaken Road

Originally designed by renowned architect Bob Nation, "Monticello" is a home that showcases the power of thoughtful design, where light, space and outlook define everyday living. Set across approximately 1.25 acres at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home is positioned to take full advantage of its elevated setting, capturing sweeping views across the River Derwent to kunanyi / Mount Wellington. It's a setting that feels private and peaceful, yet remains just 15 minutes from the Hobart CBD. Inside, the architecture immediately reveals itself. The central living space is both striking and inviting, defined by raked ceilings, exposed timber trusses and full-height glazing that frames the landscape beyond. Natural light moves through the home throughout the day, while double-glazed windows enhance comfort and efficiency. A stylish wood heater anchors the space with warmth and character, complemented by a heat pump for year-round climate control with the added benefit of solar to support energy efficiency. The kitchen is seamlessly integrated within this space, appointed with quality Bosch appliances, stone benchtops and excellent storage, and designed to connect effortlessly with both indoor living and outdoor entertaining. Privately positioned across the home, the accommodation offers flexibility and separation, with three bedrooms, two including built-in robes and two enjoying direct access to the courtyard. Bathrooms are located at either wing, enhancing privacy, with the main bathroom beautifully appointed and centred around a freestanding bath. Outdoor spaces are thoughtfully integrated into the design, with a generous rear courtyard and BBQ area providing a private setting for entertaining, while the front terrace offers a place to unwind and take in the outlook. The grounds are established and offer scope to further enhance over time, with garden sheds adding practical storage. A double carport with undercover access and additional off-street parking complete the package. A home defined by design, position and outlook - don't miss this exceptional opportunity.
