Marta Dusseldorp and Ben Winspear’s West Hobart home has hit the market.

The four-bedroom property strikes a perfect balance between its historic, early 1900s origin and the comfort of a modern lifestyle.

No.19 Devonshire Square has been rebuilt with precision.

Completely transformed over eight months, this reimagined Federation residence unites timeless character with modern sophistication.

Wolf Property director Cam Rogers said every element of the property had been meticulously considered to deliver a home of exceptional quality and effortless functionality.

“Our vendors have done a lot of work fully renovating this home,” he said.

“And the results speak for themselves. It’s a fantastic home in a fantastic location.”

In 2021, when speaking with the Mercury about their 1888-built home in Taroona, Dusseldorp noted the special nature of historic homes. She said they held a unique appeal.

“There is something about them, the way they are a living structure with story embedded in the walls,” she said.

Set on a low-maintenance 455sq m corner allotment, No.19’s single-level design provides 194sq m of refined internal living space, enhanced by a new double carport accessed via Union St.

The house has been comprehensively re-roofed, restumped and fully re-engineered. It features new wiring, plumbing and insulation throughout.

Inside, a warm, cohesive palette combines recycled and newly finished flooring, while thoughtful lighting, multiple heating options and solar panels elevate comfort and efficiency.

The heart of the home centres on a beautifully appointed kitchen, dining and living zone.

Marble benchtops, soft-close cabinetry and premium appliances define the kitchen, while a sunken lounge introduces architectural depth and relaxed separation, anchored by a wood heater.

The adjoining dining area flows to a veranda, where elevated city and water views create an ideal setting for entertaining or quiet reflection.

Three generously proportioned bedrooms, each with extensive built-in wardrobe storage, are complemented by two impeccably finished bathrooms featuring underfloor heating.
