A grand home in a spectacular location with beautiful views across the River Derwent from almost every room in the house. It is set within stunning established gardens and there is only a strip of river reserve between the house and the water. The house was built to exacting standards, including custom finishes and historic features, by a Master Builder.
The house is set over two levels with a foyer entrance leading to a lovely kitchen with a breakfast nook which opens onto a courtyard and deck overlooking the river. There is also a formal dining room and formal lounge room as well as a family room and powder room on the ground floor. This part of the house is warmed by in-floor heating sectioned into 3 zones.
A wide stairway with deep treads leads to the upstairs which is set out on a floating, concrete floor. There are three, double bedrooms; main with ensuite, large built-in robes and gorgeous views and one single bedroom with access to the large, attic space ideal as a teenage study room / playroom / craft room / storage.
On the water-side of the house is a wide sweep of grass and the sheltered deck is a wonderful spot to soak up the sun and the tranquil views. On the road-side of the house is a double carport and a workshop with power and lighting which would also make a great home office. Sheltered paths wind through the gardens which have a reticulated watering system for easy management.
Claremont has three primary schools plus a secondary college; an extensive shopping centre; an aged care facility; parkways and is around a 20 minute drive to the heart of Hobart.
