This house has remarkable charm. Built, I believe, around 1860 and extended since, it is perched about halfway up a hill overlooking Hobart’s central business district. It has two full bedrooms and a smaller third bedroom that would accommodate one adult or (as in our case) one small child. The kitchen is fully appointed and has space for four to dine. The bathroom has a combined shower and bath and an ample supply of hot water. One nice surprise was the backyard, which is steep (at its highest, well above roof level); it is reached by precarious but picturesque stairs. Our 21-month-old daughter loved it. Much of Hobart is within walking distance. All in all, a fine choice for a family looking to spend a few days in Hobart (which is, as an aside, an exceptionally attractive city).
