Summary: A Landmark Heritage Opportunity with Future Potential
Description: Offered as a single combined holding, 314-316 Liverpool Street represents a rare and compelling opportunity to secure two late-1800s heritage homes together with a valuable rear land component in one of Hobart's most established inner-city streets. This is a property defined by proportion, history and possibility - ideally suited to builders, architects, developers and design-led buyers seeking a project where character and long-term value sit firmly at the forefront. The Heritage Homes Both dwellings retain a rich collection of original period features typical of Hobart's 19th-century architecture, including: • Original fireplaces and mantles • Timber floorboards, architraves and skirting • Leadlight and stained-glass features • Lath and plaster walls • Traditional staircases and room proportions These authentic elements form a strong foundation for sympathetic restoration, allowing future owners to celebrate the craftsmanship of the era while re-imagining the homes for contemporary living. Restoration & Creative Potential The homes provide an exceptional blank canvas for transformation. Their scale and layout allow for: • Thoughtful internal reconfiguration (STCA) • Restoration of period detail alongside modern amenities • The creation of two highly desirable heritage residences • Strong value uplift through quality design and execution Opportunities of this nature - where original fabric remains largely intact - are increasingly rare in inner Hobart. Rear Land & Architectural Opportunity Complementing the heritage homes is a separate rear parcel of land, adding a further layer of flexibility and appeal. • Concept drawings by a respected local architect are available • Potential for a contemporary dwelling positioned behind the heritage façades with access via Molle Street • An ideal opportunity for a multi-stage or mixed heritage/new-build outcome This rear component significantly enhances the versatility of the holding and broadens the range of potential end uses. Who This Opportunity Will Appeal To • Builders and developers seeking a boutique inner-city project • Architects or designer-builders wanting a standout heritage commission • Buyers attracted to multi-dwelling or staged development potential • Those who value craftsmanship, history and creative freedom This is an offering for buyers who see opportunity rather than limitation. Location Set within a tightly held heritage streetscape, Liverpool Street enjoys: • Nestled on the edge of the Hobart CBD • Excellent access to transport and amenities • Enduring demand for restored character homes The location underpins both immediate appeal and long-term capital strength. 314-316 Liverpool Street is a rare, layered opportunity combining heritage significance, architectural potential and development flexibility - all within an established inner-city setting. Concept drawings and further supporting information are available for buyers seeking to explore the full scope of what this exceptional holding can offer. As the properties are currently tenanted, on a month-by-month basis, inspections will be by appointment.
