Ant's "Fluff-Free" Description...
Some homes you look at. This one you settle into.
Perched high and private above Kingston on roughly two and a half acres, this white weatherboard two-storey home is pointed straight at the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, Cape Raoul and kunanyi / Mt Wellington.
Come for the view, stay for the space, the sheds, the gardens and a lifestyle that is genuinely hard to find this close to Hobart.
THE GOOD STUFF:
1. That view. Wake up to the Channel stretching out to Cape Raoul and the mountain standing guard, then have your morning coffee to the exact same picture. It never gets old.
2. Roughly 2.5 acres of established, park-like gardens with mature blackwoods, deciduous and flowering trees, stone retaining walls and wrought iron gates. Bare feet on the lawn, room to roam, space to breathe.
3. A generous, sun-filled living room that flows to the dining zone and out to not one but two sun rooms, so the light follows you all day and the whole family still fits at Christmas.
4. A brand new kitchen sitting right at the heart of it, close enough to the action that the cook never misses the conversation.
5. Four bedrooms plus a study upstairs and a separate office downstairs, so everyone gets their own corner and working from home is properly sorted.
6. A pond, a sheep paddock and a tennis hit-up area, the sort of backyard that turns weekends into an event without you ever leaving home.
7. Enclosed vegie gardens and a separate fenced patch with fruit trees, ready for you to grow your own and hand the kids a wheelbarrow.
8. A big double garage plus a large separate shed, so the cars, the trailer, the mower and every project you have been putting off finally have a home.
9. Smart and self-sufficient, with solar, bore water reticulation and serious rainwater storage, plus a backup generator for total peace of mind when the weather turns.
10. Two Daikin heat pumps ducted through both floors, so the whole home stays comfortable no matter the season.
11. Rural quiet at your door and the town at the bottom of the hill, roughly 12km to Hobart with Kingston's shops, beaches and schools just minutes away.

Bring your boots and your imagination and come and stand on the lawn.
