First time to the market for 36 years this Circa 1971 266sqm brick and tile family home is true to the era and ready for renovation. The 4 bedroom residence has a sunny northerly aspect with views to the mountain and lower Sandy Bay and includes - a self contained 1 bed unit with separate Aurora metering offers potential lodging for investors seeking a Hobart base - while the rest of the property upstairs earns rental income and pays for the property.

A selection of Tasmanian timber walls featuring Oak and Myrtle demonstrate pride of ownership from years gone by and a full length sun deck plus a hard wearing timber parquetry floor in the family room with sheltered courtyard area off, are all attractive design features of any era.

The close proximity to child care facilities, primary and secondary schools, Nutgrove beach and the University of Tasmania Sandy Bay Campus, lower Sandy Bay shopping including a bottle shop, news agency and IGA supermarket enables both convenience and wide range of choices catering to your individual tastes, just a short distance from this home.

The floorplan includes 3 bedrooms upstairs all with built ins plus 2 bathrooms and could easily expand to 4 bedrooms by building in the study/media room. Thus with the unit downstairs - the home would then achieve 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms from a low cost alteration.

Access is gained downstairs from the generous undercover 2 car carport to both the house with internal stairs, or the downstairs unit on the ground level with room for a further 2 vehicles OSP in the driveway. Public transport stops on Churchill Avenue adjacent to the property for the absolute maximum of convenient, independent living in this location.

The 2 Coolabah Road floor plan captures great views from the kitchen/dining and lounge rooms. Hobart by night is an enchanting panorama and many a dinner party will have occurred in these rooms among family and friends enjoying this inspiring back drop. The kitchen as the hub of the home provides an efficient work space with easy access to appliances and storage as well as a large, open servery through to the family room which is also an excellent entertaining space.

Home heating is provided by a Panasonic heat pump and IXL wall heater upstairs while the unit downstairs offers 2 x slim line panel heaters to keep that area cosy during the Winter months. With neutral décor and drapes, presentation is generally in good condition for age. The property could be let ‘as is' in current condition or will make a wonderful renovation project to return 2 Coolabah Road to a very stylish home over time, in this location.
