18 Nixon Street, Sandy Bay TAS 7005

This circa 1890 Victorian home is located in an iconic row of nine terraces just a stones throw from Marieville Esplanade. These homes rarely come up for sale and for good reason as they exude street appeal, retaining ornate Victorian character inside and out.

The floorplan is typical of the terrace house, with the lower level accommodating a living room with original fireplace, dining room and kitchen. Beyond this is the laundry and bathroom. The back door opens onto a sunny paved rear courtyard offering a low maintenance space to relax outdoors, whilst still allowing the green thumb to potter about. The rear gate opens onto the off street park on title at the rear a bonus in the area that also allows access into the courtyard without going through the house which is a rarity in terrace living.

There are two generous bedrooms upstairs. The master has BIR and doors opening onto the balcony offering some lovely filtered water views. Furthermore, there is natural gas for hotwater, cooking and heating which ensures a cosy home during the cooler months. The row is strata titled and this dwelling has enormous potential for conversion as short term accommodation to generate additional investment income.

With an unsurpassed location close to local schools, UTAS and just a short stroll to the shops, cafes and amenities of the Sandy Bay, Battery Point and the CBD, this terrace presents an exciting opportunity for purchasers seeking a home with character and charm that also offers a vibrant lifestyle.
