For many years now, Ranelagh has been one of the Huon Valley's most popular suburbs, attracting families and couples looking for quiet, stylish, residential living. Number 9 Baily Street offers a unique opportunity to buy a modern, upmarket home on a huge 1553m2 block, tucked up a quiet no-through road. This executive home features 3 good sized bedrooms, a terrific home office with built in desk and shelving, 3 well appointed bathrooms plus an additional powder room, a large underoof garage and workshop and a huge 9mx4mx3.85m shed for storing boats and all your other toys. Built in 2015/6, the home is fully insulated, and filled with modern details throughout. Properties like this are becoming rare so if you've been hunting for a large family home with room for everyone to spread out, this one is not to be missed!
As you arrive at the property, an avenue of ornamental pears lines the driveway and welcomes you home; these are a real sight to behold during spring and autumn! The entry to the house is through the main door on the lower level where you are welcomed into a tiled foyer leading you up the Tasmanian timber staircase to the main living area and kitchen. This living space is light and bright and offers two areas for watching television, or perhaps an area for the kids to play. The kitchen sits centrally on the upper level and is fitted with sleek white cabinets and Celery Top benches, as well as a large walk-in butler's pantry. This stylish kitchen truly feels like the hub of the home. Just off the Kitchen is space for an 8-10+ seat dining table for entertaining, or enjoying meals as a family. At the end of the main living space, sliding doors open up onto the 7mx3m deck which offers a lovely northerly aspect and also has an external staircase offering great connectivity to the backyard. This whole area offers excellent indoor/outdoor flow in the warmer months and has a spectacular view to the jewel of the Huon Valley, Sleeping Beauty. The house is kept comfortable year round with a reverse cycle air conditioner, and you could easily add a wood fire for extra ambience if you choose.
Upstairs, the main bedroom feels luxurious with double doors leading in, and space enough for a king bed, side tables, occasional chair and room to spare. There is a modern, spacious ensuite and full walk-in robe, too. At the opposite end of the upper level, a large second bedroom with built-in robe, fully fitted home office (or nursery) and second modern bathroom with additional powder room completes the space. On the lower level, the third bedroom and bathroom is nice and seperate from the rest of house, opening up the opportunity to have a teenagers retreat, granny flat for older parents, or perhaps even the option to use as self-contained accommodation (STCA). Also on this lower level is the laundry room which doubles as a utility room, an additional hobby nook ideal for crafts or models, and a HUGE amount of storage.
Outside, the main double garage is under-roof with an electric roller door and has space for 2 cars and internal access to the foyer. Behind here is a workshop currently fitted with 15amp power and a dust extraction system which can be purchased with the property. In addition, this space could be fully lined out as an additional rumpus room/games room, or even bedrooms if you don't need the extra workshop space. Out the back, a concrete drive leads down the side of the house to access the huge shed which has been purpose built to store a boat, as well as a plethora of fishing equipment. It could also house a caravan, camper trailer, vintage car or simply be used to house all your household bits and pieces. This shed has a remote roller door and 15amp power connected. The 1553m2 block is well set up with a mix of ornamental trees, fruit trees, a hot house and raised veggie beds, perfect for living a more self-sufficient life. The whole garden is irrigated with a fully automated wifi control to ensure your gardens thrive, even when you're not home. A CCTV security system with wifi control also ensures your home is safe, and makes this property ideal to 'lock-up and leave' if you're keen on travelling for work or pleasure. There is also the potential for a strata development should that be of interest (STCA).
9 Baily Street sits within walking distance to the Summer Kitchen Bakery, Ranelagh General Store, the Village Green, as well as the park and sports oval. There is a newly constructed footpath for walking or biking into the Huonville township, and the property is just a short distance from the Tassielink bus route to take you into Kingston, or Hobart CBD. Huonville has everything you need from a small country town including some of the best coffee in the state (we're a bit biased!), doctors, a hardware and supermarkets. Ranelagh is a short 30 minute (approx.) drive to Hobart CBD making this property idea for those commuting for school, uni and work. I cannot wait to show you through!
