Last Listing description (June 2022)

Brimming with style and sophistication, this exquisite home offers luxury and practicality in equal measure. Situated in a sought-after new homes area, the property's elevated position captures panoramic city, river and mountain views; and bushland right at the doorstep provides a peaceful ambience for this unique 2015 built residence.

Prepare to be captivated from the moment you enter through the grand double doors and into the vaulted foyer that runs right through to the magnificent open plan living area. Large and plentiful double glazed windows flood this generous space with natural light and highlight the endless views over Hobart and into the far distance. Two separate decks off the living area mean ample opportunities to enjoy warmer weather and fresh air, with easy indoor-outdoor flow.


The kitchen has been fitted out to exacting standards with soft close cabinetry, Smeg appliances, stone benchtops and an appliance nook. You can enjoy quiet, comfortable and quality living all year round with gas hot water, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning, and a suspended concrete slab underfoot.

All generously sized, light and luxurious - the sleeping quarters are all about comfort. The master bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite with floor-to-ceiling tiles, underfloor heating and a heated towel rail. There is a walk-in wardrobe in the second bedroom and generous built-in storage in the third, plus a TV aerial in all three rooms.

The family bathroom contains a separate bath and shower, under floor heating and a heated towel rail, with the separate toilet located adjacent. The laundry is easily accessible in the remote controlled double garage, and the workshop and utility space downstairs could be further developed to make a wonderful rumpus, teenagers' retreat or home office with connection to NBN completed.

If a low-maintenance outdoor space appeals, this is the garden for you! While the enclosed rear yard is full of beautiful leafy shrubs and grasses, there is no lawn to mow and no watering either, with irrigation already installed. The nicely sized 797 sqm block even includes a rainwater tank for use in the garden.
