12/9 Augusta Road

New Town TAS 7008

This one has a fully fenced backyard and a lawn you can actually put a chair on.

Ground floor, renovated kitchen, semi-separate laundry, separate toilet, off-street parking and a heat pump, all a short stroll from the Hill Street Grocer and five minutes from the city.

I have sold this exact unit twice before, so take it from me, it never hangs around.

THE GOOD STUFF:

* Your own fully fenced backyard, a genuine rarity in unit-land, where a morning coffee in the sun, a small dog and a veggie patch with big ambitions all fit comfortably

* Ground-floor living with no stairs, no lifts and no lugging the shopping, just park, walk in and you are home

* Open-plan kitchen, dining and living that flows straight out to a lovely courtyard, so summer dinners spill outside without anyone having to move the table

* A renovated kitchen with white gloss cabinetry, tiled splashback, built-in oven and enough bench to cook something ambitious on a Sunday

* A proper bathroom with a shower, plus a separate toilet, none of that all-in-one nonsense you get at this price

* A semi-separate laundry with its own trough and washing machine space, so wet towels never have to live in your kitchen

* Heat pump comfort that keeps you toasty through a Hobart winter and cool when February finally remembers to turn up

* A bedroom that looks out into the green, the sort of window you wake up to rather than the sort you keep the blind shut on

* Your own off-street car space, so the daily park hunt on Augusta Road becomes somebody else's problem

* A leafy garden that MIGHT take less than 5 minutes to mow!

* Stroll to the Hill Street Grocer and New Town's cafes, with The Friends' School around 400 metres up the road and the Hobart CBD roughly five minutes away

THE BORING-BUT-IMPORTANT BITS:

* 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 1 off-street car space

* Approx 42m2 house area on the floor plan, with approx 47sqm on title
Lot 12 on Strata Plan 161531 (Volume 161531, Folio 12)

* Built 1973 in solid brick, in a tightly held Augusta Road block

* Zoned Inner Residential under the Tasmanian Planning Scheme

* Town water, sewer and power all connected

* Reverse-cycle heat pump for heating and cooling

* City of Hobart municipality

* Strata title with a body corporate, fees and details available on request

* Rental estimate around $450 to $500 per week, with New Town's median unit rent sitting near $498

* Offers Over $399,000, with vacant possession available

New Town units are currently selling in a median of 19 days, down from 60 a year ago. The last time I sold this one it took 19 days on the nose. You can do that maths yourself.
