8 Highfield Street

Set high on the hillside with sweeping panoramic views across the Derwent River, 8 Highfield Street is a home that delivers space, versatility and lifestyle in equal measure. From the moment you arrive, the elevated position creates an immediate sense of privacy, while capturing an ever-changing outlook across the water, surrounding suburbs and mountain backdrop. Upstairs, light-filled living and dining areas form the heart of the home, with expansive windows framing the view and drawing in natural light. The adjoining balcony seamlessly extends the living outdoors, the perfect setting for entertaining or simply unwinding while taking in the scenery. The kitchen is both stylish and practical, featuring quality upgrades, generous bench space and a walk-in pantry, all thoughtfully positioned to maintain connection with the main living areas, ideal for everyday living and hosting alike. Accommodation is well considered, with two bedrooms and a dedicated home office on the upper level, all designed to maximise comfort and natural light. Downstairs is where the home truly sets itself apart. A substantial open plan level, with kitchenette, bathroom, both internal and external access, offers exceptional flexibility, ideal as a second living zone, rumpus, teenage retreat, home gym or workspace. With its scale and independent access, it also presents exciting potential for dual living or future reconfiguration (STCA), appealing to both families and investors. Further enhancing the home is a large garage/workshop - a rare and valuable inclusion, perfect for trades, storage or the home handyman. Outdoors, the tiered backyard offers both space and opportunity, with established retaining, multiple levels and an elevated vantage point providing scope to further landscape, create additional entertaining areas or simply enjoy the open space and outlook. Conveniently positioned within close proximity to local schools, shops and everyday amenities, including Moonah Central, and just an approximate 8-minute drive to Hobart's CBD, this is a home that balances lifestyle with accessibility. With all the hard work already complete including double glazed tinted aluminium windows, block-out and shade blinds, new insect screens, fresh paint and flooring, security doors, modern keyless entry, new roofing, guttering and gutter guard, along with 26 solar panels this home represents exceptional value in today's market.
