In an elevated end-of-court position, this comfortable and solidly built 70's high-set home has superb River Derwent views, an eye-pleasing but easy-care garden and offers plenty of potential for the lucky buyer.
Featuring gorgeous water views from the long balcony, living room and two of the bedrooms and Mount Wellington views from the open plan kitchen and dining room, the house offers inspiring vistas from sunrise to sunset.
Polished Tasmanian oak floors give the black-wood kitchen, dining and living rooms, passage and bathroom an earthy feel while the bedrooms are comfortable, spacious and carpeted.
The master and second bedrooms both have new built in robes while the roomy master ensuite sports a great retro-style sunken bath/shower cabinet and matching vanity. The second bathroom, (upstairs), is modern and neat and a third smaller bathroom, (downstairs), offers the opportunity to extend the living area. Internal paintwork throughout is recent so all the hard work has been done. The kitchen has a walk-in pantry and plenty of cupboard space. Storage is plentiful throughout the house.
A large reverse cycle air-conditioning unit plus wall and panel heaters are located throughout the house and there are ceiling fans in the kitchen and lounge room. There is also a feature open fireplace in the lounge room (not currently in use, but usable).
Downstairs, the garage roller door is conveniently remote controlled. You will find a nice surprise in the form of a built-in, newly carpeted rumpus room through a set of timber and glass doors inside the garage. Featuring exposed brick walls, a bar and sink and a built-in seating/storage bench, this space could suit a myriad of uses from a teenager's retreat to a music room, to a home office.
The garage has parking for two cars, a long workspace with exterior access and a huge concrete-floored storage space that could be incorporated, (with the third bathroom), to extend the living area.
Attractive hedges separate the house from its neighbours on both sides and the gardens are extensively landscaped in both the front and backyards. A high-gated, timber-fenced and paved courtyard/BBQ entertaining area lends a Mediterranean ambience to the backyard.
All things considered, this home is a real find and needs to be inspected to really appreciate its full potential. Don't delay, we can't see this one lasting!
