12/8 Margaret St, Sandy Bay is a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom Unit and was built in 1975. The property has a land size of 38m2 and floor size of 27m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in October 2023.
Positioned on the top floor of this 1970's era apartment building, TheBae is an award-winning example of small space living. The modest footprint has been cleverly designed to maximise every possible square-metre available, and a has finished-build quality of the highest standards.
Completed in 2018 the property features a light birch plywood-clad interior, with vaulted ceiling and skylights that wash the apartment in year-round natural light, as well as double glazed timber windows that frame the water views whilst providing warmth in winter and protection from summer sun.
On the rear wall of the home, large bi-fold doors open to reveal a full kitchen with bespoke cement sheet surfaces and Australian-made brass tapware. Behind a second substantial door you will find the striking bathroom, clad in deep-red tiles giving a nod to the 1970's heritage of the building.
Throughout the apartment are a selection of carefully curated fixtures and fittings, such as the matt black ceramic basin by local artist Lindsey Wherrett, the mid-century light by Bernard Schottlander and the custom built daybed by Andrew Otto.
Situated next to the picturesque Marieville Esplanade, the apartment captures stunning water views of the river-Derwent and is only a short walk from the Hobart CBD, Battery Point, and Salamanca Place.
The apartment is currently utilised as short-term accommodation with a highly profitable track record and whilst it would suit a myriad of different buyers, lends itself to continuing operation as short-term accommodation, a stunning pied-a-terre in a sort after location.
