30 Montagu Street, New Norfolk TAS 7140

New Norfolk is beautifully situated on the banks of the Derwent River, a very scenic, easy commute of just 35 minutes to the CBD, an inner suburb by mainland standards. Originally named Elizabeth Town after Governor Macquaries wife, the town is steeped in history and the tourist gateway to the Derwent Valley.

Montagu Street dissects the town and hugs the riverbank. The Esplanade, a mere 2 minute walk from number 30, is stunning, with towering English trees and open parkland.

The opportunity to purchase a comparatively recently constructed single storey residence with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in the heart of the town is rare. Great storage and a huge laundry come powder room is in addition to the family bathroom. Contemporary styling, superb presentation with "as new" appointments, premium quality appliances including triple stack sliding doors, reverse cycle air conditioning, double glazing, central skylights and day / night custom made roller blinds.

With an abundance of natural light, open plan interiors extend seamlessly on three sides to enjoy alfresco living. The terrace at the rear is undercover so is practical in all weathers. The kitchen is lovely and the hub of the house, complete with a generous island bench and a fabulous butlers pantry. Living space is expansive and includes a designated dining space, a cosy study nook and informal seating adjacent to the wood heater as well as the main living area opening to the front deck and entrance hall. A snug or second living room off one of the bedrooms is a great spot to enjoy the afternoon sun.

The master bedroom is private and quite independent of the other bedrooms and includes an en suite and built in storage with a leafy outlook to the garden and local hillside vistas beyond.

The entire property is securely fenced in Colorbond Monument with a gravel parking apron for 4 vehicles.
The High Street is just a leisurely walk with comprehensive services and retail infrastructure. Award winning restaurants and antique / collectable haunts are also within easy reach as are a selection of schools.
There is much to recommend this community as a desirable destination and place to live and enjoy the environment...with national parks nearby, just a pleasant day trip away...breathtaking Russell Falls, the Salmon Ponds with the oldest trout hatchery in the southern hemisphere, Bushy Parks hop fields and oast houses, not to mention the winter wonderland of nearby Mount Fields snowfields.

An affordable opportunity presents to purchase and secure property close to Hobarts city fringe.
