35 Beach Street, Bellerive TAS 7018

This is a perfect property for families, professional couples or (soon-to-be) retirees, in much-sought-after Bellerive. There is great potential for development now... or at some time in the future, to accommodate two units (STCA).

Beach Street enjoys a prime location, beautifully central on the Eastern Shore within easy driving or bussing distance to Eastlands and Shoreline Shopping Centres...also, within easy walking distance to The Quay, the Bellerive village retail and restaurant precinct, as well as Blundstone Arena and the beachfront. Located on the upper side of Clarence Street, at the intersection of York and Beach Streets, number 35 is a mere 1 minute walk to public transport and there is also a choice of schools in the vicinity with Bellerive Primary School closeby.

The scene from the spacious, open plan living area takes in Hobart and encompasses a lovely view of Mount Wellington. A productive and leafy garden with its combination of natives and exotics (including dwarf fruit trees and an established pottager for the sustainability enthusiast!) provides interest and even a degree of privacy, with seasonal colour year-round, a lovely foil for the cream-coloured, rendered house which sits well on the level allotment. From this vantage point, there is even a tiny glimpse of the River Derwent, a reminder of how tantalizingly close Bellerive Beach is!

The interiors are surprisingly generous and have been fastidiously maintained and enhanced with flair. The master bedroom has a wall of floor-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes and an en suite. The other two bedrooms have walk-in storage and are currently presented as an artists studio and reading room respectively. The study is wired for the 21st century and includes NBN connection. The family bathroom includes a bathtub and a separate shower. A powder room and an extra toilet adjacent to the laundry service the accommodation.

Other fixtures include two Fujitsu heat pumps, a security alarm system, electronic gate and external lights on motion detectors. The kitchen is well appointed with timber cabinetry and granite benchtops in charcoal hues...in addition to a fabulous walk-in pantry.

Features from the original 1960s abode, the twin fireplaces, some of the original oak flooring and a remnant of the wrought iron balustrade on the faade, are evident and lend character and style to the contemporary (interior and exterior) renovation.

There is a ceramic tiled utility room (or conservatory / casual dining space) with double sliding doors to the carport. A covered outdoor entertaining area next to the garage is sheltered and brilliant for all weather alfresco dining. A small terrace at the rear is very private and a nice spot to sit and enjoy garden. A real bonus is the off street parking for at least 3 cars plus the carport and a fully wired garage.

Act fast as this one wont last...a wonderful opportunity presents!
