Ridgeway TAS 7054

Presenting as near new, this energy efficient family home nestles discreetly into the landscape and is located right next to Ridgeway Park, connecting directly to Wellington Park, with world class walking and mountain biking trails from your doorstep.

This home provides an escape from the hustle and bustle. Come home each day to a tranquil oasis, with relaxing spaces with a Nordic-inspired design.

A short stroll along the quiet streets of Ridgeway, where children are often playing and neighbours stop for a chat, take in amazing views of Storm Bay and Mount Wellington. The reserve and trails surrounding Ridgeway are a well-kept secret; on the trails you are unlikely to see another soul during your walks in the wilderness, with abundant wildlife including wallabies, bettongs, echidnas, bandicoots, eagles and owls.

This quality 2016 built home is extremely energy efficient with argon-filled double glazing throughout. All insulation options were upgraded during the build to achieve well over required 6.7 star rating.

Ground floor of the home consists of a beautifully designed kitchen, cosy dining and lounge room which provide privacy with thoughtfully placed windows, capturing the beautiful surrounds. The ground floor also includes a large garage, guest bedroom and bathroom, separate toilet and laundry, all with 2.7m high ceilings, creating a feeling of space.

Upstairs consists of a sun-filled family room which is linked to the kitchen below via the atrium, two large bedrooms with generous walk-in robes, study nook and a huge bathroom, with a scenic outlook from the bath. The upstairs floorplan gives flexibility with the addition of a single stud-wall to create a parents retreat converting the upstairs bathroom to an ensuite.

Outside there is a fully insulated 10 x 5m shed which has been built using the same construction as the house with timber framing and trusses and a very solid, sealed concrete floor. The shed has high efficiency windows and is lined with ply for practicality and style.

Every detail has been carefully considered to create a healthy home with low emissions products chosen and cross flow ventilation factored into the design. This home is heated by a quality Canadian-built wood heater chosen for efficiency and aesthetics.

New native gardens have been planted but there is plenty of room for you to add your touch, there is plenty of scope for a vegie garden, chicken coop and an outdoor bath by the creek would be a beautiful place to enjoy this wonderland.

Multiple flat parking areas have been created which is a rarity amongst Hobarts sloping blocks. The property is fully fenced with wallaby proof wire, however if you wish to let the wildlife in to enjoy their presence just leave the gate open.

Ridgeways attributes and community really has to be experienced to be believed, at the end of a no-through road and the only business a quaint native plant nursery, the scene of children riding bikes through the main street is a common sight. With only around 70 households within Ridgeway and large allotments, this semi-rural hamlet so close to Hobart is a very special place indeed. Its just so quiet and peaceful here.

Homes of this quality and within this setting rarely become available, this offering presents an opportunity not only own a piece of Ridgeway but to attain a well-built contemporary home where you dont have to do a thing.
