5 Derwentwater Avenue, Sandy Bay TAS 7005

"Kia-Lama" is located in one of Sandy Bays most sought after streets. Built in the 1940's, this character home has so much to offer its new owner. There is everything from high ceilings, original fireplaces and picture rails throughout to being so peaceful, quiet and conveniently located!

The main entry to the property is via a grand foyer featuring parquetry flooring and an art deco front door. To your left is a separate dining area with access through to the kitchen that includes quality floorboards throughout. To your right, a cosy living area with an exquisite sandstone fireplace. In addition to the main living areas there is a second living/family room leading onto the outside paved area, a large laundry room with an ensuite bathroom and a study/bedroom.

Once you reach the top of the traditional staircase there are three bedrooms all of large size with fitted built-in robes and two from which you can glimpse the River Derwent. There is also a main retro style bathroom located on this level.

There is an abundance of parking inclusive of a double garage and four off street parking spaces. The garage has lockable roller doors and could be easily used as a workshop.

Outside has beautiful leafy green surrounds and is perfectly calm and peaceful, even given the location. The yard is fully secure for pets and children with lemon, walnut and grapefruit trees.

Only a five minutes' walk to Sandy Bay Village and so close to all common services such as the UTAS, private schools, public transportation and shopping centres.

This property would suit a large family wanting extra space or an astute investor. Whilst the property is beautiful in its present state it could be renovated for a more classic contemporary style, the bones are certainly there!

If you think this property may suit you please do not hesitate to contact Rob for a private inspection.
