36 Pirie Street

There are homes that simply announce themselves and 36 Pirie Street is one of them. Framed by an automated iron gate and set behind manicured lawns glowing beneath an autumn canopy, this immaculately presented solid brick Art Deco inspired residence makes its intentions clear from the moment you arrive. This is a home of rare quality, considered investment and quiet grandeur and its asking price simply reflects the reality of what has been assembled here over many years of thoughtful, uncompromising ownership. The facade is a study in character and craftsmanship, rich red brick dressed with contrasting detailing and a signature entrance. The kind of architectural detail that cannot be replicated and only appreciates with time. Beyond the ornate glazed double entry doors, the home opens into a wide timber-floored hallway, warm and refined, immediately signalling that what follows will not disappoint. The heart of the home has been transformed through a masterful renovation that marries period integrity with contemporary openness in a way that feels entirely seamless. The open plan living and dining zone spans a combined footprint that accommodates large family gatherings and quiet weeknight evenings with equal ease, finished with polished timber flooring, downlighting and windows that frame the established rear garden on one side and the sunroom on the other. The connection between living, dining and kitchen creates a flow that is immediately intuitive and equally warming. The area here is the social heart to the home. The kitchen is nothing short of a statement. Fully renovated to an exceptionally high standard, it features a generous U-shaped layout with stone benchtops, floor-to-ceiling handleless white cabinetry, a bold sunshine yellow glass splashback that brings genuine personality and energy to the space, an island breakfast bar, induction cooktop, stainless steel double wall oven, built-in microwave, integrated rangehood and double sink. This is a kitchen designed for people who enjoying cooking and it shows in every considered detail. A dedicated laundry sits immediately adjacent, finished to the same standard with stone benchtops and full cabinetry, quietly completing the service side of the home. What elevates this property beyond the visual, however, is the warmth that runs literally beneath your feet. Hydronic in-slab heating flows through both bathrooms, transforming a Hobart winter from something to endure into something to genuinely savour. Paired with reverse cycle air conditioning, the home is climatised for year-round comfort in a way that most properties in this price bracket simply are not. The master bedroom is a genuine retreat, generously proportioned at 3.6 by 4.3 metres with a dedicated walk in robe and direct access to a beautifully renovated ensuite. The ensuite is finished with full-height white tiling, a frameless glass shower, a floating vanity and heated floors that make stepping out on a winter morning an entirely different experience. The second bedroom is equally substantial, served by the main bathroom which features the same full-height tiling, a large rain head shower, contemporary fittings and its own underfloor heating. Both bedrooms are carpeted with quality wool floor coverings, quiet and presented with the care of a home genuinely cherished. Connecting the main home to the rear outbuildings, is the sunroom - a standout feature of the floor plan, a generous light filled corridor with timber decking and louvred windows that frame the garden on both sides. It is a space that earns its keep across every season, equally suited as a reading room, a casual entertaining area or simply the best kind of threshold between inside and out. Accessed directly from the enclosed and lockable sunroom is a self-contained studio, a significant addition that functions beautifully as a home office, guest room, third bedroom, creative studio or teenage retreat depending on your needs. Outside, the rear grounds are genuinely expansive. A substantial single garage sits within the Colorbond outbuilding, accompanied by a large 6.0 by 3.0 metre carport delivering covered parking for multiple vehicles. Two garden sheds complete the practical exterior, while a generous level lawn framed by established fruit trees, and a rose garden delivers the kind of rear yard that very few New Town properties can match. The drone photographs tell the full story of what an extraordinary footprint this allotment commands in one of Hobart's most coveted inner suburbs. With the Hobart CBD visible in the distance, the Derwent shimmering on the horizon, Kunanyi rising behind and the vibrant New Town precinct, the Royal Hobart Hospital corridor and the best of Hobart's inner north all within easy reach, 36 Pirie Street represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a home of true character, remarkable scale and uncompromising quality in a location that never goes out of style. Properties of this calibre, at this standard and with this story, do not come along often. Those who understand quality will not hesitate. Thinking of selling?
