Across from magnificent Mortimer Bay Reserve area with Gorringe Beach and the Tangara Trail network this is a lovely, elevated yet level 5 acre position.
The brick homestead style home gazes across the bay to South Arm and beyond (with some help) and is set back from Gellibrand Drive for maximum privacy and to gain level play areas around the home. In an area of around 2 acres a second fence has been erected to contain the family pets. A circular driveway in front of the home has beautiful bottle brushes and banksia's to attract the multitude of native birds.
Easy care gardens, shrubs and native trees are positioned around the acreage and a vegetable patch with raised garden beds and fencing is in a watering position.
The lovely home has a walk around verandah, ideal for rainy day entertaining. The main entrance is delightful featuring stained glass panels, slate flooring and cyprus pine feature wall. The lounge has a high soaring ceiling with exposed oregon beams and new wood heater. A ceiling fan circulates the rising heat to the other rooms.
Double doors open to a spacious dining room with myrtle used as a feature. Off this area you can access outside or enter the bright cheerful kitchen with skylight and a brilliant two room walk-in pantry with designer built-ins.
The hallway has two skylights and two built-in storage cupboards; the bedrooms are doubles with built-ins with the extra-size master bedroom having a walk-in robe plus an en-suite.
The main bathroom includes a bath, separate shower and vanity and next is a separate toilet room. The laundry is also separate and large in size.
About 40 metres from the home is a garage building, with three phase power, which still has a shower, toilet and vanity and is insulated and plastered; the three rooms in this area offer the possibility to utilise the space as a teenage retreat or separate accommodation. Next to that is a storage shed.
This property offers a fabulous position, walk to the beach in minutes, or 6 minutes by car to major services and 25 minutes to Hobart. I've lived about 6 acreages away for about 30 years so if you want to know why we call the area "Paradise Peninsula" please call me and I will explain. Make your inspection A.S.A.P.
