Up the stairs on the top level, the home is predominately split into two wings: on one side the remaining three bedrooms and on the other the extensive living and entertainment options with the bathroom, laundry and toilet facilities separating the two distinct areas.
One of the many striking features is the intentional spaciousness of the rooms. Each king size bedroom has built-in robes and two have the extra convenience of study desk alcoves.
As with the ensuite downstairs, the family bathroom is elegant and sophisticated in design with sleek tiles and quality fixtures and fittings including deep bath, vanity and shower, while the adjacent laundry also has custom built-ins including allowance for an extra freezer or fridge.
The other wing is undoubtedly the area where you will spend most of your time entertaining family and friends, which is all wonderfully open plan on large sleek floor tiles, yet with clearly defined areas incorporating the living and dining areas with a magnificent central white gloss kitchen with all the cupboards you could possibly need and mod cons including double draw dishwasher, two underbench ovens, hotplates and pantry. There s ample bench space provided via a stone centre island bench with a connecting servery or table ideal for the kids or extra space for the chef in the house to prepare a feast.
Probably the most striking feature is the sheer brightness of this area even on a dull day, with an abundance of panoramic windows and sliding doors that beckon attention both maximizing natural light and showing of the picture postcard views while practically providing access to the entertainers deck.
Just off the living area is another multi-purpose room that can be closed off via double sliding doors ideal for a second living or family room or alternatively a home media/theatre.
The brilliant private backyard behind besser retaining walls has manicured grass for children to play while the house is surrounded by delightfully landscaped mulch gardens separating the house from the road.
Extras include 7.4 star energy rated residence, wired in Signum sound system, secure off-street parking on the lovely concrete pebble drive, cosy air conditioning from the heat pump and electric heating, downlights and quality fixtures and fittings feature throughout and there is much more.
Everything is within a short drive and near bus routes, including Shoreline Shopping Centre, Howrah Gardens, beaches, schools, numerous sports and recreational grounds, community clubs, parks and reserves and it s just 10 minutes further to Eastlands while the Hobart CBD is only around 15 minutes away.
Overall this stunning home of a timeless design, creates an atmosphere of spaciousness throughout and a modern ambience rarely found. Surrounded by other new properties, this one must surely be among the best in the Glebe Hill area and can be yours now. So why go through the stress of building yourself?
