Nest or invest in these gems

IN up-and-coming West Moonah, this Springfield house was an easy choice for our favourite of the week in the upper end of the market.

It boasts over 6000sq m of land plus a large family home with five bedrooms, two bathrooms and two living areas.

The veranda is a great spot to kick back and enjoy the mountain views and birdlife.

On the lower level are a rumpus, two bedrooms and a laundry. Upstairs houses up to four more bedrooms, the main bathroom, kitchen and dining areas, a living room and a deck that wraps from the dining space to the master bedroom.

The house sits adjacent to the Parkwood Gardens development, which means in the future it will have driveway access to Creek and Lenah Valley roads, making the city a six-minute drive.

It also has existing approval for a 1600sq m block to be subdivided off the house.

Over on the Easter Shore, Bellemont Ct is home to this three-bedroom house in a quiet street.

Each bedroom is a generous size and fitted with built-ins.

The floorplan includes a large lounge, a modern kitchen, a dining area, a sun room with large windows and a wraparound deck.

Downstairs the house has a laundry, rumpus and bathroom.

The property is fully fenced and landscaped, including a barbecue area.

And at the more affordable end of the market, this singlebedroom Sandy Bay apartment is located just a stone’s throw from UTAS.

Set on the ground floor, it has a spacious living area and open-plan kitchen space plus a separate bedroom and an upgraded bathroom.

The apartment comes furnished.

Currently it returns $300 per week on an 11-month lease.

NBN is connected to the property.
