PROPERTY SUMMARY
Property Talk
There are homes that offer space, homes that offer views and homes designed for entertaining.
48 Highfield Street brings all three together – then adds an indoor swimming pool and self-contained living into the mix.
Offering an extraordinary approximately 360m² of usable space, this substantial residence delivers a level of flexibility rarely found so close to Hobart. Designed across two expansive levels and positioned to capture sweeping views across the surrounding suburbs and hills, this is a home built for families who want room to live, entertain and grow.
The upper level forms the heart of the main residence, where generous living and dining spaces take full advantage of the elevated position. Large expanses of glass frame the outlook and connect the living areas with the broad front deck, a brilliant place for a morning coffee, an evening drink or simply watching the changing colours across the skyline.
The kitchen sits centrally within the home, providing excellent storage and workspace while connecting naturally with the adjoining dining area.
Accommodation on this level includes three bedrooms, with the main bedroom enjoying its own ensuite and impressive outlook, while a family bathroom and separate laundry provide everyday practicality.
But downstairs is where the home really begins to separate itself from the ordinary.
A huge home theatre/rumpus room measuring approximately 5.1m x 7.8m creates an exceptional second living zone. Movie nights, teenagers, a games room, home gym, office or the ultimate sporting retreat, there is room here to make it whatever your family needs.
Then there is the showstopper.
A dedicated approximately 70m² pool room houses a substantial indoor swimming pool, creating year-round recreation and entertaining without leaving home. Whether it’s children swimming after school, birthday parties, weekend gatherings with friends or simply having your own private place to unwind, it is a feature few properties can offer.
Adding another dimension is the approximately 60m² self-contained lower-level accommodation, complete with its own entry, kitchen, living area, bedrooms and bathroom/laundry facilities. For extended family, adult children, teenagers or guests, the flexibility is exceptional. It may also appeal to buyers exploring additional accommodation or income possibilities, subject to all relevant approvals and requirements.
A substantial garage, covered area and multiple storage options further underline just how much this property offers.
And while the home itself is impressive in scale, its elevated position is equally memorable. From the living room, bedrooms and expansive deck, the outlook stretches across Moonah and beyond, becoming particularly spectacular as the sun sets and the lights begin to appear below.
It’s big. It’s versatile. It’s an entertainer. It’s a home where different generations can have their own space while remaining under one roof. And with approximately 360m² of usable area and your own indoor pool, replacing what is offered here would be no easy task.
For families searching for something genuinely different, this is one property that deserves to be experienced in person. Inspect early homes offering this much space, versatility and lifestyle are exceptionally difficult to replicate.
