Last Listing description (September 2020)
Scarcely 40 privileged titles make up the Taronga Road precinct of historic Bonnet Hill overlooking the entrance to the magnificent River Derwent. With the Iron Pot light house in distant view - these mostly generous titles of the Bonnet Hill slopes enjoy all day sun and a privileged semi rural setting just 20 minutes by car from the Hobart CBD.
In 1839 Bonnet Hill was selected for construction of a probation station, housing convicts and soldiers who would build that section of the Channel Highway connecting Hobart with modern day Kingston Beach to the south. Identified now by the landmark shot tower' built in 1870 from stone recovered from the by then disused probation station buildings, discerning residents seeking privacy, elevated water views and a peaceful setting within easy reach of the city and airport, populate this area.
Among the larger residential titles at Bonnet Hill is this 2.1Ha 8-10 Taronga Road property reached by a sealed private access to the secluded home. Held by the present vendors since 2006 this property reveals a mostly fenced sanctuary like setting, enjoying the music of prolific native bird life in the morning sunshine and a selection of both natural bush and gently sloping grounds as an ideal location to raise a family in the freedom of the outdoors.
A defining feature of this property is an enchanting and security fenced running water feature behind the residence, framed in a stone paved courtyard, recovered from a former convict excavated small quarry dating to the probation station era.
Within this magical setting is a contemporary brick residence of 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms which with minor alterations could easily become 5 bedrooms - designed to blend with the surroundings and providing for loads of natural light entering through panoramic windows and skylights. The home is a centre piece of style, privacy and privilege encouraging an atmosphere of peaceful relaxation at one with nature', which comes with the property.
Among a long list of engaging features the well maintained home offers low maintenance slate and or terracotta tile floors, hi end kitchen and bathroom upgrades, Daikin air conditioning, quality European appliances and is beautifully decorated and furnished with an eclectic selection of artistic and personal tastes. A 2 car lock up garage and security system throughout will ensure the safe keeping of the premises, tools and equipment.
Including accommodation downstairs, the present expansive 364 sqm floor plan incorporates a parents retreat upstairs via a glass atrium encased stair case reaching the master bedroom with ensuite, private lounge and study or second bedroom with and secluded private deck overlooking the grounds perfect for relaxing with a favourite book.
A second lounge downstairs with a cosy wood combustion heater plus a den or library provide additional choices for family to relax, for casual entertaining or the enjoyment of guests staying over. Whereas the kitchen to dining areas are open plan spaces catering to larger group events, opening to a choice of out door areas both in front of and behind the home, depending upon weather conditions.
