"Wasatch" (circa 1924), has been everything Mark and Bridget could have ever wished for in a family home. This home has been all about fun times with their family and friends while maintaining a tangible sense of privacy and escapism from the bustle of city life! It provided ample space for their five young children to play and grow into adulthood both inside and out. Extensively renovated over the years to an impeccable standard, this incredibly private residence, hidden behind leafy, beautifully landscaped gardens that have featured in several Open Garden days, "Wasatch" has been the perfect home for entertaining family and friends on a small or grand scale...for any reasons and in all seasons. Your own exclusive day/night tennis court sits on a small portion of these unforgettable gardens, which total around 3,579sqm in area, and currently spans across two titles - providing downsizing options in the future, should this be a consideration. This property really must be seen to appreciate the impressive proportions, blending the old with new to create amazing living spaces that are both practical and stunning....flowing seamlessly into each other!
Multiple impressive living spaces blend the old with the new to create sensational spaces that are both practical and stunning! The indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces are large enough to hold sizeable social events - weddings, engagement parties, anniversary celebrations, teenage sleepovers, a multitude of birthday festivities, family and many dinner parties. Despite how large it seems, the house itself is very much a family home with the kitchen at the heart of it all.
With all the living areas on the entry level, the pure size allows for the four large bedrooms to sit comfortably upstairs along with the carefully designed family bathroom and the more recently renovated ensuite. A guest bathroom off the enormous open plan living space downstairs, is ideal when entertaining. From inside, you yearn to step outside into the established garden paradise, be it into the private brick-paved courtyard off the architect designed kitchen/dining space or out onto the balcony overlooking the full sized Super grass tennis court and the magnificent sunsets behind Kunanyi (Mt Wellington).
Ducted reverse cycle heating throughout the downstairs area and a mix of double glazing and Comfort glass ensure year-round warmth in this 1920's home.
The garden has been lovingly developed over the past 27 years into a rambling flora walk filled with rare, native and ornamental plants and garden "rooms" where you can sit and reflect and watch the wide variety of birdlife that are attracted to this lush suburban habitat. In fact every room in the house has a view of the garden that includes an automated watering system designed to take the hard work out of maintaining such an oasis within suburbia!
Hidden behind electric gates is a long driveway leading to a separate studio with adjoining garage and a triple carport - providing ample space for vehicles and even an art studio or workshop. Underneath the home itself is a huge storage area which is perfect for housing all those extras that you don't need on a daily basis but you want to keep within easy reach!
With some of their fondest and happiest family memories linked to this property - from bonfire nights, billy cart races down the driveway, playing hide and seek in the garden labyrinth, toasting marshmallows in the fire pit on the terrace as a brilliant sunset fills the sky over Kunanyi - Mark, Bridget and their five children have felt honoured to have been able to call "Wasatch" their family home. The flexible floorplan gave them the space they needed over the years, but now it is time for them to downsize now their children have "flown the nest".
It is hard to believe that such a treasured and quietly statuesque residence is nestled so close to the City, the North Hobart restaurant precinct, State and Private Schools and Hospitals, with a bus service in the street. Offering a luxurious yet practical lifestyle for a family who value their privacy and appreciate the convenience of being close to everything Hobart has to offer, this unique property is looking for a new generation to call "Wasatch" their family home.
