Last Listing description (November 2015)

Enjoying a highly sought after positon at the top end of Forest Road West Hobart, this house is ripe for renovation.
This is an opportunity for the right owner to create something quite extraordinary with what could be considered a blank canvas, in a location that offers some of the best views Hobart has on offer.
Like many homes in this stretch the main parking bay is located at the top of the street and some undercover parking is available. A winding path leads you down to the house which is surprisingly larger than initially appears from the street.

Currently comprising 3/4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 kitchens and 2 living zones the property could be used as 2, 1 bedroom flats, each with their own entrance or easily be converted back into a family home.
Located downstairs at the rear of the property are two additional craft rooms, storage is certainly not an issue in this property with numerous options available. The backyard is terraced and offers plenty of space to create a lovely outdoor entertaining area that will make the most of the beautiful view. Renovate to live in or as a long term rental investment this property will not last.
