Last Listing description (March 2017)

This 4 bedroom family home exudes the practical integrity of the late 1960s era. Built to last from bricks and terracotta clay tiles, the upstairs flooring is of high quality Tasmanian oak and begs to be exposed and polished.
The upstairs comprising of some 142m2 of living includes bathroom and separate toilet. The floor plan is perfect with each of the 4 adjoining bedrooms on the south side of the home, whilst the 2 expansive living areas and kitchen all face north and bask in radiant sunshine. These rooms benefit from an expansive, solid and spacious sun deck taking in world class City, Derwent Estuary, bridge, Casino, beach, Eastern Shore and suburban views.
The downstairs boasts another 98m2 open and partitioned area all with solid concrete flooring. There is another toilet on this level plus a second non functioning shower. All of this plus a lock-up single garage to the side. There is also good access to the well constructed foundations of the house itself.

Nestled in a corner of the huge 1070m2 parcel of prime West Hobart land is an absolute surprise. Council approved as a shed there is an approximately 80m2 stand alone shed/studio. Solidly suspended on concrete pillars and steel girders with power and lighting on tap. This structure offers those same fabulous sun and views as the home and will ideally lend itself to a variety of uses.
Well this truly is a unique offering with one more major attribute on offer, the fact that the property borders Knocklofty Reserve, its only neighbouring house is on the northern side.
All of this situated in what is fast becoming Hobart's hottest residential suburb.
