3/178-180 Channel Highway, Taroona TAS 7053

This superb, 170m2 in all, penthouse apartment is situated on the sunny side of the complex in the leafy suburb of Taroona bordering Sandy Bay, around a 15 minute scenic drive from Hobart’s CBD.This spectacular home certainly has the WOW factor in spades. Occupying a prime position in what was once the Taroona Hotel, converted in 2009 to a luxury apartment complex.Estuary views just don’t get any better than this, offering 180 degree panorama looking towards the wild Ocean which takes in fabulous eastern and western shores views plus Bruny Island to the south east. The apartment itself is on the seaside of the building and experiences none of the usual traffic noise associated with a highway address. Infact my vendors have witnessed a close up view of a becalmed Sydney to Hobart yacht race (eventual) winner, and the birth of a baby whale at Hinsby Beach (directly in front of this complex). The proportions of the living areas are extremely generous ideal for a relaxing evening with a few wines or a dinner party taking in the ever changing moods of the Derwent Estuary so close at hand.If enjoying superb world class views, whilst cooking dinner, is on your bucket list, you simply wont find any better venue than this spacious European applianced kitchen. All of the windows are double glazed all adding to the quiet warm persona of this outstanding property.Both bedrooms are extremely spacious, the master complete with well equipped ensuite bathroom. The main bathroom is enormous and in my opinion the floor plan could easily be re-configured utilising some space to create a 3rd bedroom if required. This property really is a stand out with north facing sundeck, boasting access from both bedrooms and living area, perfect for BBQ or alfresco dining. Add to this a well maintained lift access, secure garage, parking under (also offering lift access) and much more external parking, there are also well positioned CCTV security cameras on every corner of the building.And by the way the area previously operating as a lounge bar is now closed with the owner’s intentions being to renovate, as residential living, in-keeping with the rest of the complex.There is a highly acclaimed caf just a stone’s throw away and the beautiful Hinsby Beach is within a short walk. Lower Sandy Bay and Kingston are within a pleasant easy drive in opposite directions.
