Stone Flower Renovated Barn
Stone Flower is a mid-1800s barn that has been transformed into a unique, comfortable and luxurious one bed accommodation. Fully equipped, self contained, private with a lovely courtyard; it is centrally located with in minutes of all the best that Hobart has to offer. This is the perfect Romantic Getaway!
Stone Flower is located off the main street, at the end of a private driveway. It is a beautiful, light-filled, multi-level dwelling which flawlessly harmonizes the richness of its historical past with comforts of modern day life. This unique property has been creatively transformed and provides privacy and comfort.
It now boasts a private sunny, Mediterranean style courtyard, the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine after a busy day exploring all the Hobart and surrounds has to offer.
The upstairs space, is bathed in natural light and sits under the original pitched ceiling. From the stunning bedroom with its deliciously comfortable queen-size bed, step up into the open plan bathroom featuring a large wet area shower, mirrored cupboards, and gorgeous vanity all enveloped in the warmth of timber and stone. The old barn's original ladder now serves as a unique towel rack! Guest amenities are provided.
Downstairs, there is an open plan living area perfect for relaxing with a good book or for watching a movie from the eclectic DVD collection provided. And the best of Australian contemporary furniture is yours to enjoy. Step into the fully equipped, gourmet kitchen and cook up a storm. Culinary delights are available from several conveniently located grocers including the much loved Hill St Grocer, Salamanca Fresh, Wursthaus Kitchen, Salamanca Market (on Saturday) as well as the normal supermarkets. The custom built dining table has been recycled from beams left over from the renovation and seats four people.
There is under floor heating both upstairs and downstairs and a panel heaters in the bedroom and living room. There is also a small outdoor area and parking for one car.

We had a lovely stay at Stone Flower Renovated Barn. Full of character and beautifully designed/set up and within walking distance of the city and Salamanca (provided you don’t mind the odd hill). Lovely provisions left for us too. Thanks Eve!

A great example place for a weekend away
A place to spend 5 days. Great central location for exploring Hobart and surrounding areas (note if you are walking the property is situated on a very steep hill).
The accommodation is warm and inviting. Felt totally at home - towels, linen, furniture, crockery are all of a high standard. Kitchen was well planned, contained good quality appliances and met all of our needs.
The upstairs bedroom and bathroom are stunning with an open plan layout, making it feel extremely spacious - just aware the toilet while in a separate space is also open plan.
A beautiful place to spend a weekend.

Stone Flower Gem
Delightful architectural barn renovation with everything you could need. Beautifully presented and a wonderful base for a stay in Hobart. Walking distance to the centre of town through some interesting old neighbourhoods. Will definitely be back.

Location pretty good but steepness of hills limited how often you would go in and out. Definitely make use of Ubers as very cheap to get to harbour

Great getaway close to the Hobart CBD
Both my partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Stone Flower, a beautifully constructed building easily maintainable for a couple with all of the amenities required to both stay in and cook or come back to after a night out.
An ideal location in the west of Hobart with only a 20 min walk to the likes of the Salamanca market and beautiful pier. Likewise, it is only a 10-15 min walk to the CBD.
The property manager was an absolute delight to communicate with and provided great recommendations for our stay.
If you are staying in Hobart for an extended period or just a weekend away I cannot recommend this property any higher as it was just delightful.

Architecturally splendid hideaway in pretty neighbourhood
We loved Stone Flower Barn! If you are even remotely interested in architecture you’ll appreciate the beauty of the material and the clever interiors of the barn, including a view of the harbour from the shower and the natural light pouring in everywhere. Very generous breakfast provisions were waiting for us on arrival and the bed is absolutely plush - I didn’t want to get out of it. Highly recommended.
