255 Nelson Road, Mount Nelson TAS 7007

Privately nestled in a leafy pocket of popular Mount Nelson, this circa 1970s home is designed by notable Tasmanian architect Ray Heffernan, displaying his signature style with many classic retro features throughout. Enjoying a north-easterly aspect and bathed in all day sun, panoramic views of the River Derwent are a mesmerising backdrop in this truly impressive family home.

With level access from the carport to the main living area, the entry foyer opens onto the expansive open plan family room and well-equipped kitchen. Glass sliders onto the sun deck provide seamless indoor/outdoor living and the perfect vantage point to watch the Sydney to Hobart fleet sail to the finish line or the New Year's Eve fireworks each year.

Formal living is accommodated with a spacious dining room and classic 1970s sunken lounge which also opens onto a sun deck. The private master suite has an ensuite bathroom, built in robes, and opens onto the garden. An additional ensuite bedroom and two further double bedrooms, and a central family bathroom, cellar and laundry complete the floorplan.

A statement in 70s architecture, expansive glazing, timber accents and bold angles, combine seamlessly with tastefully implemented contemporary updates. Outside, picturesque gardens surround the home and are a tranquil place for the green thumb to potter. Out buildings include a garage/workshop adjacent to the carport, and flexible garden studio space with water views. Car parking for up to five vehicles is also a bonus.

Within easy reach of local amenities including public transport, Hill Street Grocer Sandy Bay, medical centre, Mt Nelson Shop and chemist, this sought after area offers a friendly local neighbourhood just ten minutes from the CBD, making this an exceptional opportunity to acquire a piece of Tasmania's architectural history and a generously proportioned family home.
