Some homes offer a wonderful place to live. Others offer the chance to create something even more special. At 25 River Road, Port Sorell, you really can have both.
Perfectly positioned opposite the peaceful Panatana Rivulet, this beautifully updated home enjoys one of Port Sorell's most sought-after settings. Whether it's an early morning paddle on the river, dropping in a fishing line after work or simply enjoying the ever-changing water views from the front deck, life here moves at a much gentler pace.
Originally built in the 1940s as a holiday shack, the home has been thoughtfully transformed over the years into a spacious family residence without losing the relaxed coastal character that makes it so inviting.
The open plan living area is a wonderful space to relax, entertain and spend time together, with the magnificent double brick fireplace and wood heater adding both warmth and character. Large windows frame the outlook and welcome plenty of natural light inside, while double glazing throughout the home provides comfort no matter the season.
Four bedrooms provide flexibility for growing families, with the spacious master enjoying a modern ensuite, while the remaining bedrooms are well serviced by the updated family bathroom. Updated wiring, plumbing, near-new floor coverings, re-cladding and insulation all mean much of the hard work has already been completed, allowing you to simply move in and enjoy.
Step outside and you'll discover another reason this property is so appealing. Set on a generous 1,252m² block with dual street frontage, there is room for everyone. The backyard offers established lawns, veggie gardens, fruit trees, a chook house, entertaining areas and plenty of room for children and pets to enjoy. A large, powered shed with excellent access from Griffiths Street provides ample space for vehicles, a workshop, caravan or boat, with the added bonus of an adjoining carport.
Then comes the opportunity that truly sets this property apart.
The rear portion of the land already has full Development Approval for a strata subdivision, complete with approved plans for a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a double garage. With the approvals already in place, the next owner has the rare opportunity to build, invest, accommodate family or add significant future value without the time and uncertainty of navigating the planning process.
The location is simply outstanding. Panatana Park is only a short stroll away, offering swimming, picnic facilities, playgrounds and open green spaces, while the cafés, shopping, medical services, golf course and beautiful beaches of Port Sorell, Shearwater and Hawley Beach are all just minutes from your doorstep.
Homes in this location are always tightly held, but finding one that combines an updated family home with genuine development potential is exceptionally rare. Whether you're looking for a forever home, an investment in your future or both, 25 River Road offers an opportunity that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
