Perfectly positioned in the heart of Hobart’s CBD, The Commons are boutique and tightly held apartments, and this one is one of just thirty, offering a rare sense of privacy, architectural integrity and genuine community connection.
Completed in 2020 by Vos Construction, this beautifully considered building was created with modern urban living in mind, guided by a genuine commitment to sustainability. The Commons holds the distinction of being Australia’s first carbon-positive apartment complex, an achievement that feels quietly confident and one that places it among Hobart’s most thoughtful and forward-looking residential apartments.

Generous open-plan living spaces are enhanced by Tasmanian Oak flooring, hydronic heating and double-glazed windows, creating a home that is warm, quiet and energy efficient year-round. A north-facing balcony draws in natural light throughout the day, while the kitchen and bathrooms reflect thoughtful design and quality fittings.
Beyond the private residence, residents enjoy access to a suite of shared spaces that encourage connection and wellbeing.

Set within one of Australia’s most liveable and culturally rich capital cities, Hobart offers a lifestyle that is both vibrant and relaxed. The city’s calendar of festivals and events, including Dark Mofo, Taste of Summer, MONA FOMA and the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race brings a unique energy year-round, while the café culture, arts scene and waterfront precinct are all within easy walking distance.
The location is equally compelling for professionals and academics, with the University of Tasmania’s city campus, the Menzies Institute for Medical Research and the Royal Hobart Hospital all just a short walk away. Salamanca Place, the waterfront, theatres, galleries and the CBD’s shopping and dining precincts are close at hand, making daily life effortless and enjoyable.
