Overview

Incredible Waterside Home Designed to Offer a Flexible Solution for Every Stage of Family Life

Step outside your own gate to walk along and explore the beautiful waterfront reserve, which feels like an extension of your own backyard. Watch the stunning evening sunsets reflect across the River Derwent, with the impressive new Bridgewater Bridge and the distant outline of Mount Wellington creating a spectacular backdrop. This waterside residence is incredibly private, both from the street and once inside. Positioned in a peaceful no-through road surrounded by quality family homes, the property enjoys all-day sun and offers everything a family could hope for, and more. Set on approximately 1,059sqm of beautifully maintained gardens, all the hard work has been done for you. Raised garden beds and the gently sloping grounds create the ideal setting for young children and family pets to play safely. Downstairs features a newly developed, fully approved granny flat, guest accommodation, or self-contained teenage retreat, complete with Blackwood floorboards, allowing occupants to come and go independently. This light-filled, modern space includes a generous bedroom with ensuite, a kitchenette, and water views from both the bedroom and living area. Glass doors open onto a private courtyard where you can relax and enjoy the peace, privacy, and beauty of this special location. External stairs provide easy access between the upper and lower levels, while a side path offers stair-free access. Nothing has been left to chance here, with the exterior freshly painted and featuring a new dishwasher, two hot water cylinders, 16 solar panels, induction cooktop, ducted heating throughout, and an abundance of space. There is so much room that you'll enjoy deciding where to place your furniture among the multiple, opulent living areas. The Curly Maple timber cabinetry in the kitchen is truly unique and reflects the exceptional quality of this home. The sheer size of the kitchen surpasses most, allowing multiple "family chefs" to work side-by-side while remaining connected with guests in the dining area or even those gathered on the expansive rear deck. Designed for year-round indoor-outdoor living and entertaining, the deck is fitted with bistro blinds, providing shelter from the elements whether relaxing in the afternoon sun or dining outdoors with family and/or friends. Every room in this gorgeous home is bathed in natural light thanks to large windows, neutral colour schemes, and spacious proportions that perfectly frame the breathtaking views unique to this location. Upstairs, the three bedrooms are all generously sized, with the main bedroom featuring a walk-through robe and practical ensuite. The second bedroom could easily serve as an alternative main bedroom, thanks to its convenient access to the two-way bathroom, thoughtfully designed to suit the busy needs of family life. There is also a smaller room on this level that is ideal as a study, with direct access to the living area. This room could easily be enclosed and used as a fourth bedroom if required. Better still, all bedrooms include built-in robes, ensuring ample storage for everyone. The open-plan living area is particularly impressive for both its size and outlook. Every window frames stunning water views, while the remarkable sense of privacy creates an atmosphere that is both peaceful and captivating. Imagine how effortlessly entertaining will become, with seamless flow between the indoor living spaces and the outdoor entertaining areas. Outside, the grounds are divided into a front and rear yard. The front features a double garage with remote-controlled doors and enough parking for up to four additional vehicles, including a boat, trailer, or caravan. The backyard provides gated access around the downstairs accommodation and includes four raised garden beds within beautifully landscaped gardens, ready for the new owners to continue enjoying the rewards of all the hard work already invested. This is an exciting opportunity for families seeking space and a home that can adapt to life's changing circumstances. Whether you have interstate or overseas visitors who need comfortable accommodation when they visit, teenage or adult children wanting greater independence while remaining close to home, or an ageing parent who would benefit from living under the same roof while maintaining their own autonomy, this home offers a flexible solution for every stage of family life. Whatever your needs, this home can accommodate them all-and it's less than a 25-minute drive to the Hobart CBD, approximately 15 minutes to Lindisfarne and Eastlands, and even closer to Glenorchy.
