This irresistibly charming 'cape-cod homestead' inspired country cottage, with gabled roof and postcard perfect dormer windows, constructed with sturdy sandstone block, sits proudly atop a quiet, sunny hill in Taroona on the fringe of Sandy Bay where the water views are spectacular.
Renovated in 2016, and set up for low maintenance living, the home will appeal to home owners, investors (previous achieving $600 to $620 per week during the past four years), and even potential short-term accommodation owners (subject to Kingborough, not Hobart, Council approval).
Adorned with custom architectural elements including cathedral style, exposed timber beams in the ceilings and French style red Cedar window frames, the home is charming inside and enjoys a striking street presence from the outside.
The generously proportioned, family sized house is set over three levels and has a floorplan that will allow flexibility as your family grows. There is a place for everyone's quiet time, and spaces where the family can come together too. A small fourth bedroom is currently set up as an office for easy work-from-home flexibility.
The kitchen and informal meals area is on a split level to the living and formal dining room above where the open plan is warm, relaxed, and comfortable with earthy brick and soft timber textures warmed by a fabulous Convict Sandstone open fireplace, or reverse cycle air conditioning for year-round climate control.
Upstairs via a staircase with attractive timber banister is the spacious master bedroom with ensuite that has been designed to allow one to soak in and connect with the forested outlooks while you soak in the suds - a perfect way to start or end the day's activities. There are appealing water views to the Derwent River across to Tranmere in the distance from both of these upstairs double bedrooms.
The compact gardens surrounding the home are well established with low maintenance native trees, plants and shrubs whilst also featuring a paved private courtyard at the rear nestled among the leafy surrounds. There is off street parking for two vehicles to complete the package.
There are beautiful coastal walks and bush trails nearby and its location is within 12 minutes' drive to the CBD, 6kms to everything that prestigious and vibrant Sandy Bay has to offer, and a short 4-minute drive to Taroona beach and immensely popular Taroona High School - the convenience a lifestyle here would be hard to beat.
