To top it off, there are excellent views out to the Derwent River, Storm Bay and the Tasman Peninsula and back towards Mount Wellington, from a peaceful setting that soaks up the sunshine.
This home has so much to offer:
- The house was originally built in 1968 but was extended and remodelled by the present owners from eight to twelve years ago to take full advantage of the site.
- The older zone of the house comprises a living room with wood heater, three bedrooms and bathroom and would lend itself to semi-independent living.
- The more recent addition to the house includes two more bedrooms each with an ensuite and built in robes, a spacious, sunny lounge that takes advantage of the wonderful view, entrance hall, dining room, kitchen, laundry and a sunroom.
- The laundry doubles as a utility room, with a further shower and toilet adjoining, and gives covered access from the carport.
- The newer zone was built with thermal efficiency in mind with insulated walls and floors and mostly double-glazed windows, and is heated by a geothermal heat pump and underfloor hydronic system. Pipe work is in place in anticipation of a solar hot water panel on the roof.
- A range of sheds provides for a studio, workshops, storage, an office perhaps - be creative! - and shelters for livestock.
- The near-level yard and garden area is fenced against the abundant native wildlife and the veggie garden is mesh-enclosed.
- There's plenty of undercover parking and the driveway gate is motorised.
- A rainwater storage pond holds approximately 100 000 litres of water so there's no need to rely on the town water supply to keep the gardens green.
There's been no thought spared in making this home warm and comfortable all year round. Definitely worth an inspection!
