Historic 3 Bed "Bostane Cottage" Close to City

Summary:
Welcome to"Bostone Cottage", your cozy and character-filled retreat in West Hobart. Built circa 1860, this historic home seamlessly blends old-world charm with modern comforts. The eclectic mix of vintage and contemporary furnishings creates a warm and inviting atmosphere that will make you feel right at home.

The Space:
Enjoy magical sunrises over the Derwent River, visible from the comfort of your bedroom, and explore Hobart’s vibrant city center, just a short drive away. Whether you’re here for a relaxing getaway or an adventure in the heart of Tasmania, Bostone Cottage offers the perfect sanctuary.

The character starts before you walk in the door. The “ever so English” raised footpath leads you to the original cast iron gate, up stone steps bordered by a rambling cottage garden.

Step inside to a hallway with unique walls made from hand sawn cedar. This workmanship follows through to the main bedroom with Queen bed which is a generous size and includes a quirky split-level dressing area with desk, chair, and panel heater.

The second bedroom has beautiful cedar floorboards and an open fireplace (not operational) and a panel heater.

A few steps take you up a level to the cozy living area, with reverse cycle air conditioning and very comfortable couch, and a third single bedroom with panel heater. There is a TV with DVD (plenty of great movies) and Wi Fi to keep you entertained. There a well kitted-out kitchen in which to whip up a feast with all that local Tassie produce you buy. Also off the kitchen is a laundry with washing machine, clothes dryer, iron and ironing board.

In warmer weather, there is a gorgeous little courtyard and garden to enjoy.

The cottage is unique, it’s fun, it’s cute and everything you could want for a change of scene… a little step back in time but with all of today’s comforts along for the ride.

Guest Access:
Guests have full use of the house for the duration of their stay

The Neighborhood:
The street is arguably one of Hobart’s prettiest. You can walk 2 mins to a great coffee and 10 mins to the heart of the city. The awesome local pub The New Sydney is a 10 min walk and offers live music great food and an open fire in winter.
West Hobart is architecturally stunning, every house is a winner, so just walking around the neighborhood is special.

Getting Around:
You can explore the neighbourhood on foot and it's just a short stroll in to the city centre. We suggest you have a car to explore all of Hobart, and there's generally parking available on the street out the front of the house.

Perfect location, clean and comfortable

Bostane Cottage is charming and comfortable. The condition and facilities are exactly as advertised. It’s only a 15-minute walk to the waterfront and there’s a great cafe - Pigeon Hole - nearby.

Felt like home

This lovely cottage lived up to our expectations. So charming, cosy, full of character. The views from front yard and top of the backyard are incredible. Great neighbourhood, close to everything in the city including Salamanca market, Battery Point, the wharf, cafes, shops, galleries. We loved the extra little touches in the cottage like the throw blankets in the basket in lounge room. The kitchen was perfect size for the 5 of us.
