Last Listing description (January 2018)

Breathtaking panoramic vistas of Greater Hobart and the River Derwent smack your senses firmly but fairly upon entering this seriously stunning residence.
Belying the relatively sparse and undramatic street frontage this glamorous home occupies an enviable position to capture all day sun and heart-throbbing views. On a sizeable near 700m2 parcel of prime South Hobart land, sits this exquisitely modernised 1920s charmer that will surely steel your heart.
The quiet master bedroom on the entry level comprises an accommodative walk-through-robe to an opulent double-shower ensuite with heated towel rails and under-tile heating. Also on this level is another double bedroom plus convenient powder room.

From here the home opens to encompass the capacious gourmet kitchen, dining, and lounge room space that invites the spectacular views and all day sun light to bath the lucky occupants in warmth and wonder. Indoor outdoor living is seamless through sliding glass doors to the upper deck where fond alfresco memories, alone or with company, are ready to be made.
The lower level accommodates two double bedrooms, both with BIR plus a fifth bedroom or office. These are all serviced by a modern bathroom, again replete with under-tile heating comfort. Central to the bedrooms is a large second living room which opens on to the lower deck where you are greeted with those perfect uninterrupted Hobart views.
Low maintenance gardens frame the home, where you can sit among the mini-orchard and watch the children and pets play. An over-sized single carport off the street enhances the amenity of the property.
Throughout the home are flexible heating options including wood and reverse cycle air conditioning, but due to the design and aspect to the winter sun you will hardly need it.
With the beauty and vibrancy of South Hobart all around, gourmet eating and shopping, plus the convenience of nearby schools and easy proximity to the CBD, this is a one-off opportunity and not to be missed.
