Welcome to 681 Nelson Road, Mount Nelson - a character-filled stone home privately nestled in a tranquil bush setting, offering lifestyle, space and charm just minutes from the city.
This well-constructed residence sits peacefully within approximately 1 to 2 acres of surrounding bushland, creating a sense of retreat while still being incredibly connected. The home is arranged across a single level and offers 2 to 3 bedrooms, making it flexible for families, couples, or those wanting a work-from-home option.
At the heart of the home is a well-appointed galley-style kitchen that overlooks a generous living area - a warm and inviting space perfect for everyday living and entertaining. From here, you flow directly onto the north-facing deck, where elevated views stretch across the city and water - an ideal spot to enjoy morning coffee or evening sunsets.
The larger bedroom with the wood heater has an ensuite shower room and also its own separate access making it ideal for a teenager or someone wanting some independence. A third room could then be created which currently provides access to the larger bedroom.
Comfort is assured year-round with heat pump heating and cooling, complemented by a cosy wood heater that adds atmosphere in the cooler months.
Outside, the property continues to impress with a range of versatile outbuildings, including a substantial double garage or shed complete with an inspection pit - perfect for car enthusiasts or hobbyists. There is also a large workshop and storage area underneath, a single carport, chook sheds and a charming stone outbuilding that would make a magical cubby house or creative retreat.
The property runs on tank water and an onsite septic system, reinforcing its self-sufficient bushland lifestyle. While there is no secure fencing, the natural surrounds provide privacy and space rarely found so close to the city.
Families will appreciate the excellent local schooling options, and the location offers easy access to Sandy Bay and Hobart's CBD. You're also just moments from the popular Signal Station Café and a nearby gourmet grocer, combining convenience with lifestyle appeal.
Currently subject to a 12-month tenancy, this is an opportunity to secure a unique Mount Nelson holding with strong lifestyle credentials and future potential.
681 Nelson Road is a rare blend of character, setting and location - a bush sanctuary just minutes from everything
