Spacious family option

THEREARE lovely views over the city to the harbour and the Meehan Range from this two-storey family home on a leafy, sloping block.

Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, the property is only a minute or two’s drive to the city centre or the restaurants and cafes at North Hobart, while schools also are nearby.

Asealed driveway leads up from the street past a leafy, established front garden to a double garage and a glass-enclosed portico before a tiled foyer with a cathedral ceiling.

From the foyer there’s an internal door to the spacious garage-workshop with its automatic panel lift door, a laundry and an office or small bedroom with built-ins off its rear.

Double doors from the foyer open to a spacious, carpeted lower living area with a wall-mounted electric heater and a sliding door to a covered, cement-paved outdoor area with a high natural rock wall. Adjoining is a bathroom, a powder room and two bedrooms with builtin wardrobes.

Carpeted stairs lead up to a landing, which provides access to the main living area with a reversecycle air conditioner.

There’s a step-up dining room with a polished timber floor which overlooks the foyer void and, through its towering front window, has views to the River Derwent.

Opposite is a breakfast nook with a sliding door to a concrete barbecue balcony with privacy provided by the rear rock wall.

Next is a modern kitchen with a tiled floor and granite bench-tops and breakfast bar. It includes easy close cupboards and drawers, a walk-in pantry, a ceramic cooktop with a tile splashback and exhaust flue, a wall oven and grill, and a microwave nook.

Adjoining is a sunny, carpeted living room with a water and mountain outlook.

Also upstairs are a powder room and two more bedrooms. The master has a walk-in wardrobe and a spa ensuite bathroom with glass brick windows, while the other has a built-in wardrobe.

Alarge formal lounge also could be used as another bedroom if required.
