Situated just 30 minutes drive to Hobart Airport and 45 minutes from the city centre, Primrose Sands is an easy and scenic commute. Point Renard, named by DEntrecasteaux in the late 1700s, is where this superb two storey residence is located - the only property that boasts a stunning 270 degree panorama of Frederick Henry Bay to Norfolk Bay.
The westerly orientation takes in clear views of Mount Wellington; the southern view, the Tasman Peninsula through to Bruny Island, and the property is a vantage point to view the Southern Aurora. Sublime Primrose Beach is easily visible from this property as are the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets.
Primrose Sands is a wonderful location offering a myriad of leisure activities including sea kayaking, fishing, jet- and waterskiing, with a boat ramp for convenience nearby...and a world class viewing of frolicking seals, whales and dolphins and the presence of sea eagles overhead a special treat. It is also close to southern Tasmanias premier surfing beaches, notably Park Beach, Boneyard at Marion Bay and dramatic Shipsterns Bluff.
Primrose Sands represents excellent value as an affordable gateway to the Tasman Peninsula tourism trail that includes the Three Capes Walk, Port Arthur, Pennicott Tours, McHenrys Distillery and Eaglehawk Neck, or to Tasmanias East Coast vineyards. The annual Falls Music and Arts Festival at Marion Bay is a mere 15 minute drive.
The town has a local store and Dunalley, with its waterfront cafe and gallery, Bangor Wine and Oyster Shed, hotel and range of stores, is only 10 minutes away. The bustling Sorell township is a mere 20 minutes away and has supermarkets and all services.
This home enjoys a fabulous open and elevated waterside position and only a coastal reserve separates the property from open water. The house was built in 2014 and is cleverly designed to capture views from all rooms together with an abundance of natural light. The property offers a choice of living spaces with an upstairs living room complemented by an outdoor covered and heated al fresco area, and downstairs sitting / study / third bedroom and a sizeable deck, great for dining and relaxation. Living and dining areas connect seamlessly with the outdoors, effectively extending the accommodation.
Thoughtful attention to detail is apparent throughout; smoke detector activated lighting and alarms meet the highest safety standards and enable the property to be used as visitor accommodation. Windows are tinted and double glazed, keeping the property cooler in summer and cosy in winter, supported by thermostatically controlled heating throughout. Stacking glass doors to the upstairs al fresco dining bring the outside in, and a strip heat panel allows for all seasons enjoyment of this space.
A security system, automated lighting sensors, quality wool carpets and European appliances demonstrate a commitment to quality that is evident when you inspect this home.
Off the kitchen is a butlers pantry with a sink that doubles as a European laundry. The quality continues with the induction cooktop and soft close joinery.
There are two double bedrooms with built-in storage on each level with adjacent, stylish bathrooms. The downstairs sitting room serves equally well as a third bedroom if required with sliding doors for privacy.
A rare opportunity presents to secure this established and beautifully presented property, ideally situated with virtual water frontage.
