IT has been decades since this Salamanca Mews apartment has been on the market — and who wouldn’t love the chance to snap it up?

For anyone hunting for an inner-city pad, they would have to look far and wide to try to find a more perfect position than this Battery Point home.

The location of the complex — between Gladstone Street and St David’s Park — offers easy access to vibrant Salamanca Place, Hobart’s waterfront precinct and the CBD.

Hobart’s finest restaurant­s, cafes, bars and specialty stores are on its doorstep.

Whether it is time to pop to Salamanca market to grab some fresh produce, or to indulge in the precinct’s live events like Dark Mofo or the Taste of Tasmania, this is as prime as prime positions get.

This ground level Mews apartment offers a fresh and light-filled living and dining area plus a spacious balcony with a north-facing aspect.

Apartment living does not have to mean sacrificin­g space. The living dining area here measures 6.7m x 7.1m, not unlike many houses.

The paved outdoor area makes the living zone feel larger still. It wraps around the home on two sides and measures over 110sq m. It also has an undercover area for shade when the summer sun is shining.

The living area also includes an open plan galley-style kitchen with a large pantry, tiled floor and plenty of bench and cupboard space. The kitchen and the living and bathroom areas have underfloor heating.

The home has been freshly painted, and it feels cosy and warm with its new top quality wool carpets. Entry into the home is via a hallway with two bedrooms located to the left.

The main bedroom is larger, and it includes the convenienc­e of an ensuite.

The home has two bathrooms, the main located almost in the centre of the floorplan, and next to the second bedroom and the living space.

Adjacent there is a separate laundry. The apartment complex has a secure entry car park on the lower ground level with lift and stair access. This apartment includes one parking spot.

The Salamanca Mews apartment complex was built in ’94 and is a highly maintained and beautifull­y landscaped place to live.

Battery Point’s unit market is Tassie’s No.1 for price, with the latest realestate.com.au figures showing a $80,000 gap between Battery Point and second-placed Hobart.

There were 28 Battery Point unit sales in the past 12 months and a gigantic 43.7 per cent increase in the median unit price, just another example of the level of demand for this neighbourh­ood.
