From the Agent: "The Barn in Goulburn Street is on the market: a rare opportunity to buy a slice of Hobart’s early history. Built in the 1820s, it was renovated in 2015 and won national architectural and heritage awards for the way in which the property has been brought into the 21st century while skillfully retaining many of its original features. For the past nine years, it has been on the short-term rental market and has enjoyed full occupancy for much of that time. This has been due both to its location and to the pleasure of staying in a sophisticated converted residence. The property is being offered for sale, including all goods, and could be continued as a short-term rental proposition; alternatively, it would make a very comfortable and trendy small house for an individual or couple."
The historic home is tucked away at the end of a quiet street, just minutes from the center of Hobart. Numerous cafes, restaurants, museums, and shops are within walking distance.
Original sandstone walls wrap the living room, kitchen, and dining area on the ground level.
Formerly a hayloft, the upper level features a long, light-filled hallway and bedroom.
The moody, fully remodeled bathroom was once a horse stall.
The Barn, located at 3/42 Goulburn Street in Hobart, Tasmania, is currently listed for $1,250,000 AUD (approximately $821,831 USD) by Georgie Rayner of The Agency.
