Aware of the historic value of the site, the alteration and addition to this 1850s cottage and former milk depot was designed to be unapologetically modern while remaining sympathetic to its surroundings through the ‘house and garden’ typology which references the finer grain traditionally seen in Battery Point.
Subtle and considered, the Hampden Road House is defined by a balance between connection and separation and has been renovated to showcase original features and harmonises many different ambitions. This unique space is a physical manifestation of those living in it.
Open: Saturday 9 November 2024, 10am – 2pm (registration required)

![Open House Hobart and the Emerging Architects and Graduates Network (EmAGN) Tasmania @emagn_tas would like to thank everyone who kindly bid in this year's annual Sheltered [Ground] Silent Auction.
We watched the last-minute bidding war on some items (looking at your chair, @other_furniture_) with absolute glee; because, together, you helped raise over $8000 for the Hobart Women's Shelter @hobartwomensshelter. Legends. THANK YOU!!
If you missed out on an item, but you'd still like to support HWS, please head to the link in bio to make a donation. Your financial help plays a critical role in supporting service delivery and therapeutic programs, and fund strategic projects such as building long-term homes. Such programs provide opportunities for women and children to lead independent and fulfilling lives.
Finally, congratulations to those who outbid everyone else – enjoy your beautiful pieces, knowing there's a string of jealous individuals who missed out. Don't worry! We'll do it all again next year.
