Situated on South Arm beach, this large property has been designed to maximise the panoramic views from Kunanyi/Mt Wellington to the north, across the River Derwent to Kingston, Blackmans Bay and Tinderbox, down to north Bruny Island and the beginning of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, and across the mouth of the Derwent as it flows into Storm Bay: what a vista! With only a strip of council land between the property and the beach, this view will not change.
The house is situated on a large level block with manicured gardens that are not only attractive, but also very productive. Built in 1992, the home is on two levels and has been finely maintained over the ensuing years. At the entrance level are two double bedrooms with built-in-robes, a bathroom, laundry and a spacious living room with views out to the water. Sliding doors open onto a patio with the sweeping lawns and garden in the foreground and the beach and river beyond.
The double garage is also on this level and has direct access to the house through the main hallway. Stairs, complete with an inclinator, lead up to the main living and accommodation area. The dining, kitchen and living spaces extend across the beach side of the home and are flooded with light, warmth and that stunning panoramic view. The kitchen is well-equipped with ample cupboard space, while sliding doors open onto a balcony from the dining area, an ideal space for watching the sun slide behind the mountain over an evening meal. Another two double bedrooms, both with built-in-robes, can be found on this level, plus a bathroom complete with bath and separate
shower.
A studio apartment nestles into the garden on the street side of the home. It contains a large bed-sitting room, a separate bathroom and a kitchenette. This versatile building is currently used for over-flow accommodation but could easily be turned into an art or music studio, or a small business proposition as a long or short-term rental (STCA).
This property is about lifestyle: direct access to a beautiful beach with all it has to offer from kayaking and fishing, to swimming, walking and relaxing; stunning views; peace and quiet of a beachside residence; and all a mere 35 minute drive from the Hobart CBD. Apart from these attributes, there is a local primary school, a general store and small shopping complex nearby, along with the combined RSL and Iron Pot Golf Club; while the larger shopping complex of Lauderdale is approximately 15 minutes' drive away.
