Last Listing description (June 2023)

Neatly clipped hedges border a private driveway to this intriguing 1890s Princes St classic, secreted away on a large and level 858 sqm internal block, deep in the heart of Sandy Bay. Complete with a restored coach house offering a home office or rumpus room plus mezzanine storage area and 4th bedroom with ensuite perfect for guests, this charming colonial Victorian family home on 2 levels is a taste of country in the city.

From the cosy ambience of polished timber floors to the leadlight front door surrounds and classic original timber staircase leading upstairs to two large bedrooms with dormer windows this is a family home ready and waiting for the excited cries of children at play.

The country style kitchen with the convenience and function of modern, contemporary design yet still with a toasty combustion wood heater, is there for those winter weekends at home with the family - 87 Princes Street exhibits both practical function and character.

Gas central heating adds the perfect mix of modern convenience to the charm of living with the statement of style and success from the forebears who created interesting homes like this former farm house, orchard and dairy for the district.

Set among established and easy care cottage gardens and with a paved courtyard and undercover entertaining and BBQ area, 87 Princes Street is within close proximity to the University of Tasmania, but a few minutes' walk to Princes Street Primary School and Sandy Bay Shopping. Character, style and convenience secure from the street behind electric gates - your new future awaits. Call Jim Playsted to inspect.
