While the house was originally designed by Frank Stary — and when sold in 2024 was something of a ‘70s time capsule — it has been carefully reimagined by architects Oramatis, and builder Watton Construction.
It is clear that elevating the home to become one of Tasmania’s finest was a goal, however, the designer and builder also show a reverence for the original design of the property.
And that is not just a simple nod or two to the past. Instead, they took inspiration from the home’s curves and arches and turned them into a design motif that extends throughout the entire home.

Peterswald agent Phoebe Nothling described the home as “timeless”.
Mrs Nothling said the kitchen is a standout, positioned at the heart of the home, and appointed with Taj Mahal Quartzite benchtops, a central waterfall island, premium appliances and a fully equipped butler’s pantry.
It is the hear of the home, anchoring multiple living spaces.
“As we walk around, you will see the Taj Mahal theme appearing in the laundry, the bathrooms, the butler’s pantry — there is a beautiful consistent theme throughout the home,” she said.

The home takes in a wide uninterrupted panoramic view of Hobart’s harbour and city, the Tasman Bridge and yacht clubs, with picture windows framing their own unique vista.

Outdoor living is equally compelling, with an in-ground swimming pool complemented by private travertine crazy-paved courtyards, a rooftop patio and an expansive rooftop terrace designed to maximise the breathtaking outlook.
While the home does not currently have a lift, there is a space where a lift could be installed should an owner desire one in the future.
Mrs Nothling described the upstairs master bedroom ensuite as spectacular.
“It is lavish,” she said. “It has a double shower, a bathtub, more Quartzite and curves — it’s gorgeous.”
