Soho Studio
SOHO studio is situated in the heart of South Hobart. Used by thinkers, artists and writers, and you. The idea of the SOHO studio is to supply a space for creative thought but will also be used by travellers to the island during part of the year. The main bedroom, living and kitchen is upstairs. Downstairs is the studio set up which doubles up as the second bedroom for additional guests. You might not notice it at first but the wall downstairs doubles as door for the downstairs room. Enjoy!

North facing the sun warms this house with the passive solar design maintaining a steady temperature. To complement this there is a wood fire for grey days and a sliding door and bifold windows for hot ones. Ply lining and exposed rafters give the house a cabin feel creating a retreat feeling.

The free standing house is one bedroom with a queen bed and has a double sofa inner spring bed in the living room, a spare single mattress bed is also available for extra people. Although the house can accommodate 5 people, the house is quite small and is not really suitable for 5 adults if you need lots of space, Families with kids will manage OK just don't expect heaps of extra space.
