About this property
'Buckley's Rest' on the doorstep of Battery Point
Summary: Welcome to Buckley's Rest - a large 1930s two bedroom apartment nestled on the doorstep of historic Battery Point, Sandy Bay shopping precinct and bustling Salamanca Place. With beautiful period features throughout and a large, fully fenced and freshly landscaped backyard, you can easily walk to all inner-city attractions.
The Space: Located on the ground floor of a solidly built 1930s brick house, Buckley's Rest is one of two apartments featuring gorgeous original characteristics throughout. Typical of its era, the property is spacious and can accommodate up to 6 guests.
The 2 bedrooms is fitted out with a Queen bed and there is a fold out sofa bed in each of the living rooms, which are available depending on your requirements. The kitchen is fully-equipped for self-catering and an updated bathroom (with washing machine) completes the apartment.
The fully fenced backyard has been recently landscaped and features outdoor furniture and a large grassed area to enjoy.
Seeing the sights of inner Hobart is a breeze from Buckley's location - a 5 minute stroll will take you into the heart of historic Battery Point to enjoy a delicious pastry at Jackman McRoss bakery or into bustling Salamanca to enjoy the market on a Saturday morning. When it is time to pick up some groceries for dinner or mail your postcards home, the shopping precinct of Sandy Bay is also only 5 minutes on foot.
If you aren't planning on hiring a car whilst in Hobart, then Buckley's Rest is the perfect place to settle in! For those guests who do require parking, on-street spaces are available outside the entrance and the bus stop is only a few steps away. Parking is free, however 2 hour restricted during weekdays. Finding a park close to the front door is generally easy.
