Property information

Welcome to Rivulet Retreat in leafy South Hobart. A thoughtfully restored 1900s home where heritage charm meets modern comfort. Nestled in the foothills of kunanyi/Mount Wellington, and with the Hobart Rivulet flowing right through the garden, this two-bedroom retreat is perfect for guests looking to relax, explore, and soak in the best of Hobart’s natural and historic surroundings. Inside, you'll find two cosy double bedrooms and a welcoming lounge set in the original part of the home, complete with a heat pump/air conditioner for year-round comfort. The bright, open-plan kitchen and dining area leads seamlessly to a partially covered timber deck, ideal for enjoying a BBQ or entertaining outdoors. Step outside to a quiet backyard with raised garden beds, a fire pit, and the gentle sound of the Hobart Rivulet flowing just beyond the low stone wall. Surrounded by nature, it feels a world away from the city, yet it’s right on your doorstep. The rivulet is home to abundant wildlife, and if you’re lucky, you might even spot the resident platypus from the garden. For mountain bikers and adventure lovers, this is the perfect base. You’re right near popular walking and biking tracks, and there’s a lockable shed to store your bikes securely and out of the elements. Located just a short stroll to South Hobart’s buzzing café strip, public transport, and historic sites like the Cascades Brewery and the Female Factory, you’ll enjoy both convenience and a rich connection to Hobart’s past. The home also offers rare off-street parking, a valuable feature in this sought-after neighbourhood. Whether you're here to explore the outdoors or curl up in a cosy home filled with charm, Rivulet Retreat offers the perfect base.
