MOUNT NELSON

612 NELSON ROAD

IN just 10 minutes, the owner of this modern family home could drive to the very centre of Hobart’s CBD.

However, from its tranquil bush setting on more than 4000 square metres of land, one would be forgiven for thinking they were a world and a half away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Elevated and set back from the main road by way of a sealed private driveway, this expansive two-level, four-bedroom ably provides every modern convenience for family living.

Through the glass atrium entrance, the comforting expanse of this 300sqm house is immediately evident.

At the front of the home, an inviting living and dining space is bathed in all-day sunshine and warmth, with gorgeous floor-to-ceiling windows framing the glistening pool and Thunderstone terrace amid established trees.

The functional kitchen is equipped with stainless-steel appliances, including a Bosch oven and cooktop, Miele dishwasher and a Fisher & Paykel fridge. There is ample bench, cupboard and shelf space as well as a walk-in pantry.

To the rear of the home, a large family room creates seamless indoor/outdoor living.

This room opens to a paved terrace overlooking the reserve to the rear.

There is a separate room adjacent with access to the rear garden. This room would be ideal as a home office.

One of the upstairs wings is completely self-contained. It features a bathroom, walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and a kitchenette with space for dining. It also has a staircase for external access.

From the hallway, the second and third bedrooms branch to the left and right, while the generous master suite, at the end of the hall, includes built-in wardrobes, a small dressing room, an ensuite and balcony access. Bay windows provide additional natural warmth while looking down to the gardens below.

The family bathroom, the third on this level, contains a bath, a large vanity, shower and toilet.

Downstairs, entertaining options are seemingly endless. The rear courtyard features a custom-built brick wood-fire oven for alfresco cooking.

The solar-heated pool, which is encased by glass balustrades, has recently been fitted with new filters, while the luxurious outdoor spa is perfectly positioned to enjoy the beauty of the bush in complete relaxation.

The expansive and level back yard is fully fenced and backs on to a reserve.

There is a powered garden studio, a private pond and multiple garden sheds for the ease of garden maintenance.
