The open plan living room and adjoining kitchen boast vaulted timber ceilings with highlight windows capturing light. A freestanding wood heater warms this convivial living space. All windows in this part of the house are double-glazed.
From the living room, double-glazed doors open to outdoor entertaining areas and brick-flagged verandas on both sides of the house. The timber deck with views across the river as far as the Tasman Peninsula is the perfect place for a sun-drenched breakfast or evening drink, while you watch the Sydney to Hobart yachts and cruise ships arrive, or bid Aurora Australis farewell as she sails for Antarctica.
The kitchen is large and airy with a generous amount of cupboards and a spacious walk in pantry. The enormous solid timber bench, double oven, induction cook top and European appliances will make this a kitchen a pleasure to cook in.
From the kitchen there is easy access to the dining area and a light-filled mezzanine, currently used as a home office space, which looks down to the lower level living room and bar.
A huge open fireplace is the centerpiece of the voluminous downstairs room, set off by solid timber beams and double heightened ceiling. This room also enjoys views of the river and garden and would be ideal as a rumpus room, entertaining area or a work from home space. A large storage room and wine cellar are tucked away through a door behind the bar.
The mezzanine and lower level have reverse cycle air conditioners.
On the upper level the hexagonal conservatory, which enjoys lovely afternoon sun, could be an exceptionally creative space for those who enjoy painting or simply curling up with a good book.
The three generous double bedrooms all have built in robes. The master suite consists of a stunning hexagonal bedroom capturing the ever-changing light and river views, a large walk in robe and ensuite bathroom with freestanding claw-foot bath, shower, vanity and toilet.
The main bathroom has a shower and vanity and there is a separate toilet. The laundry has additional storage and extensive bench space.
Other features of the home include under floor heating throughout and solar hot water.
The property has a generous double carport and an enormous shed with potbelly stove, big enough for multiple projects, boats and bikes. There are also two fully covered vegetable gardens, a chook shed, a sheep shelter, three fully fenced paddocks, bush land and a shallow dam.
Water tanks provide 80,000-litre capacity, with cartridge filters treating all water to the house. There is a separate tank for the garden and a functioning bore ensures you will never run short of water.
The surrounding garden is a haven for native birds. At only a few minutes from Blackman s Bay and sought-after Illawarra Primary School and twenty-five minutes from Hobart, 'Gondooloo' is a tranquil escape where the night sky is full of stars and the only sounds in the evening are the crickets and the frogs.
This property has to be viewed in person to be fully appreciated. Call Mel for your private inspection of this unique family home.
