70 Waimea Avenue, Sandy Bay TAS 7005

An Oasis of Calm in the Heart of the City

Tucked well away from Sandy Bay's busy life and behind beautifully inspired English garden style gates sits this magnificent 1940's built home. The current owners have cleverly utilised the property and its land by installing solar panels for renewable energy and growing organic produce, beneficial to the owners, clients, guests and the community.
The property is set on a huge 1,915m2 of land and is north facing capturing all day sun. There are stunning views of Mount Wellington and the River Derwent, whilst feeling secluded in a hidden oasis. A significant bonus to this property is the short term accommodation business already set up, providing an excellent return and high occupancy rates.
The accommodation for the main house is split over two levels and comprises a main bedroom with an ensuite and ample storage, and in addition four double bedrooms with built-in robes located upstairs with a rumpus room. Further to the accommodation is a main bathroom, a laundry room with access to great outdoor entertaining areas and a main living/dining area separate to the kitchen. The separate and immaculate one bedroom chalet is currently being used as a licenced, council approved short term accommodation providing great extra income.
There are many extra features that the property has to offer throughout the home and chalet such as; Tasmanian Oak floorboards on the ground level of the main home, gold star solar tinting panels and solar strips for hot water, full insulation throughout, a filtered rain water tank (for drinking water), a wine cellar with a cooler room, flyscreens installed on every window and door of the property, honeycomb blinds throughout, gold star tinting on the windows in the chalet windows, kitchen window (main house) and stairs window and LED lights installed throughout offering energy efficiency. The home has been meticulously arranged in keeping with the Chinese philosophical system of feng shui thus harmonizing every item with its surrounding environment.
Outside there is a single garage with a roller door, double carport and an additional six off street parking spaces available. There are 5 water tanks, a huge enclosed vegetable garden and a fantastic wood fired pizza and bread oven located in the back yard. The grounds have been kept well and manicured.
Centrally located and close to all common services. Only a few minutes away from Hobart's CBD and Sandy Bay's shopping precinct, UTAS, popular parks and a plethora of Sandy Bay's well renowned cafes and restaurants.
