3a Britannia Place, Bellerive TAS 7018

Nestled at the end of a private driveway in one of Bellerive's most sought-after and tightly held enclaves, Bellerive Bluff, this solid brick home is drenched in warmth and sunshine with picturesque views across the River Derwent to Hobart's cityscape and mountain peaks.

Open-plan and luxuriously spacious, the combined living and dining features extensive glazing, capturing majestic vistas and allowing the entire home to bask in an abundance of sunshine. A central open fireplace nestled in brick below a timber mantle and reverse-cycle air conditioning contributes to the optimal living conditions.

The living room extends out to a sun-soaked balcony, where the ever-changing outlook provides the perfect backdrop for al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining family and friends.

The large kitchen with room to dine-in comes fully equipped with premium appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher, and a Westinghouse oven with gas stovetop. Granite bench tops glisten amid honey hued Celery Top Pine timber cabinetry, with plenty of storage space and a handy retractable chopping block.

Comfortable accommodation comprises three light-filled bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes, and the master with an en-suite. The main bathroom servicing the home contains an over-bath shower, vanity, and storage space, with a separate toilet nearby.

Ample storage is available within large hallway linen closets, and the European laundry is tucked neatly out of sight, with plenty of additional storage space and direct outdoor access. Sub-floor storage is also on-hand under the house and under the front balcony, additional storage can also be found within the outdoor garden shed.

The grounds are fully fenced and secure, with a gated driveway offering ample off-street parking and a car port with level access to the home. The gardens within the generous allotment are low maintenance, with a path leading around the property to the easy-care lawns lined with established trees and lush, green hedges. Keen gardeners will enjoy planting fresh produce within the vegetable patches, and the lovely lemon tree bursts with citrus.

Location does not get much better than Bellerive Bluff and surrounds, with beaches, bike tracks, cafes, schools, shops, and popular restaurants all within a short stroll of the front door. Major supermarkets, Eastlands shopping centre, and the essential services in Rosny Park are just minutes away by car or public transport.

The city commute is soon to be made even more convenient with a ferry service commencing this month from Bellerive direct to the Hobart waterfront.

Spacious, sun-drenched living coupled with stunning views from a convenient location make this remarkable property in the heart of the Bellerive Bluff a highly desirable home on Hobart's Eastern Shore.
