This 1930s solid brick, 3 bedroom home in the popular Nutgrove area of Sandy Bay is a viewing must. Having retained the charming traditional features of ornate cornices and ceiling roses, leadlight windows, picture rails and small-paned French doors, the home has been sensitively extended and modernised to cater for 21st Century living. At present, accommodating 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an extensive kitchen, family and dining area, plus a separate living room, the residence has a fresh neutral palette throughout, facilitating flexibility of the floorplan to suit various family arrangements.
Situated on a level block, the grounds have been beautifully maintained with traditional plantings of camellias, roses, and box hedges to create a classic ordered garden at the front of the property. Citrus trees and pittosporum hedging provide a private and attractive outdoor area at the rear that is fenced and ideal for a young family and pets. Being accessed from the kitchen/family room, and facing north, this area, complete with its decking and paving, is also sunny and perfect for outdoor entertaining. An extensive building containing garage and workshop is at the end of the driveway which runs along the length of the house, and electronic gates at street entrance provide ease and security.
Apart from its refined presentation, this property is also a most attractive proposition due to its location. Nutgrove real estate is most sought-after being easily accessible to the many facilities of the Lower Sandy Bay area: its beaches, namely Nutgrove and Long Beach; the recreational areas of Sandown including playing fields, the Sandy Bay Croquet and Sailing Clubs, and the children's playground; the popular boardwalk around the foreshore; and the various shops and services, medical facilities, and cafés. A number of schools are either nearby or on a direct bus route, as is the Sandy Bay campus of the University of Tasmania, and it is a mere 8 minute drive to the heart of the Hobart CBD.
