WITHOUT hyperbole, this Nicholas Drive property is one of Hobart’s most luxurious, elegant homes.
Elders Brown & Banks senior property consultant Hans Waldhoff has worked the Sandy Bay beat for 23 years and sold more than 100 homes on the suburb’s prestige hill — some for many millions — but said he had never seen a house like this.
“It is a stunner, this home is absolutely magical,” he said.
“The owners bought it years ago and they never wanted to move. They have invested a lot of time and money into it over the years to turn it into the gorgeous, palatial home that it is today.
“It’s only a new career challenge that has led them to put it on the market.”
Mr Waldhoff said buyers would not find anything comparable to this house in Hobart, “never ever”.
From the 1000-piece mouth-blown glass chandelier in the three-storey entrance foyer to the full-size billiards table, or the solid chrome door handles to a master suite that takes out the whole of the top floor, homes like this don’t come along every week.

The majestic master is the ultimate parents’ retreat with a large walk-in wardrobe, a Vogue-like ensuite and a living area that opens to the foyer void.
Spacious decks and balconies bask in all-day sunshine, with glorious water views found on each level.
Fastidious attention to detail can be seen in every inch of this huge home.
Top to bottom the presentation is flawless. On the entrance level there is a double bedroom with an ensuite that will be perfect for guests.
There is also a three-car garage with polished concrete floors and internal access.
Underneath the garage there is a private office with heaps of space.
Take the chic staircase to the first floor to find an enormous open-plan living area and a state-of-the-art kitchen.
The space combines formal and informal living zones that will be a brilliant venue for entertaining.
This floor is also home to more bedrooms and a two-way bathroom.
Mr Waldhoff said a buyer for this property could come from anywhere.
“There is money around in Hobart these days, or it could be an interstate or international buyer,” he said.
Open home Saturday 1pm-3pm and Sunday 2pm-4pm
