Positioned in the heart of historic Richmond, just twenty-five minutes from Hobart’s CBD, this architecturally designed residence by renowned firm XSquared is a masterclass in sophistication, comfort, and connection to its idyllic surrounds.

Every element of this solar passive design has been meticulously considered to maximise the breathtaking views, deliver warmth and energy efficiency, and create a private retreat of timeless elegance, thoughtfully designed for comfort and ease of movement.

The ground floor delivers sunlit, open-plan living and dining with bamboo flooring and floor-to-ceiling glazing that allow the interiors to bathe in natural light, thanks to the home’s prized north-to-rear orientation. Seamlessly extending outwards, the living zone flows into a private courtyard, designed for year-round entertaining beneath a pergola.

The kitchen is the true centrepiece, with high-end appliances, expansive storage, superb craftsmanship, extensive stainless steel bench space and quality finishes complete with package.

A second, spacious living room on the upper level offers a warm and inviting retreat, featuring cathedral ceilings, a Jetmaster wood burner, and access to a balcony overlooking the leafy surroundings and rooftops of Richmond.

Accommodation is generous and flexible, with up to three bedrooms, two featuring built-in wardrobes, and the third with desk space and shelving, ideal for use as a home office or study. The master bedroom is a luxurious haven, opening directly to the courtyard, and features a stylish en-suite with stone floors and premium finishes.

A sophisticated main bathroom with shower, vanity, and a toilet, large laundry with direct outdoor access, and ample storage throughout ensure complete convenience.

Set upon a 1,694m2 allotment, the established, landscaped gardens are a tranquil haven, with a serene pond, lush lawns, mature trees, flourishing florals, limestone paving, and manicured privacy hedges that create the feeling of a hidden oasis. The fully fenced backyard offers security and peace of mind, while water tanks support the grounds. An age-old gum tree forms the centrepiece of the circular driveway at the front of the property. A separate workshop or artist studio space provides additional flexibility for hobbies or further storage. There is parking for 3 cars in the secure garage and large driveway.

The property exudes quality and durability, featuring Celery Top Pine timber cladding and double-glazed anodised windows and doors, while solar power and a reverse-cycle air conditioner add modern efficiency and year-round comfort.

This is a home that perfectly balances architectural sophistication with the charm of Richmond’s semi-rural setting while still being within a short distance of major shops and services, offering a lifestyle of peace, privacy and effortless luxury.
