60 King Street, Sandy Bay TAS 7005

This idyllic c1837 3 bedroom cottage was designed and occupied by the colonial surveyor Edward Dumaresq and is conveniently located just metres from Sandy Bay shops and restaurants, nestled amidst established gardens with plenty of old world charm and history.

From the moment you step through the front door you are instantly greeted by original features of the Victorian era. The open plan kitchen/lounge stretches the rear of the property and has undergone a careful renovation to include granite benchtops and island bench whilst still maintaining original charm.

A natural gas fireplace has recently been installed which offers instant and cost effective warmth, whilst the floor to ceiling windows capture all day sun and look out to the quaint courtyard which is brimming with established yet low maintenance trees and plantings.

The 3 bedrooms are located at the front of the cottage, with the main bedroom including built-in wardrobes and new flooring and the 2nd bedroom featuring an original fireplace and mantle. A separate formal dining room also features an original fireplace and could alternatively be used as a 2nd lounge or even 4th bedroom.

Located on the opposite side of the hallway is the spacious family bathroom complete with a sunken bath. The internal laundry has direct access to the courtyard for added convenience and the property also features 2 generously sized garden/storage sheds and remote controlled single carport.

Rarely does a property of this unique nature enter the property market and together with the enviable location creates a golden opportunity to secure a piece of Sandy Bay history.
