This architect-designed haven is discreetly nestled on an internal block in Trevallyn that was once an orchard. This award winning home was built in 1984 and once featured in the Australian issue of "Home Beautiful". A very clever blend of Tasmanian timbers, second hand bricks, and large panels of glass gives this home the feeling of large open spaces and modern lines. The property is insulated from top to bottom boasting very efficient living. A large Count Rumford fireplace radiates warmth and ambiance in the winter, whilst in the summer months assists with air flow. The large glass windows capture all day sun whilst the solar panels on the roof recharge to make your power bills shrink. The home features a very clever use of its space consisting of 3 bedrooms upstairs, one complete with a loft style bed. A beautifully crafted stair case leads you to all bedrooms off a mezzanine level with a view of the living area. There are two bathrooms one upstairs with bath, bath/shower, vanity and toilet and the other down stairs integrated with the laundry with shower and toilet. Aside from the large open plan living, dining and study areas this home also has a second living room or 4th bedroom with storage.
The kitchen is a great size making it very easy to work in and boasts timber bench tops and black laminated joinery with yet another large window and great view of the lovely gardens and surroundings. From the sliding doors off the living you can access the deck perfect for alfresco dining or basking in the morning sun with that favourite book. At the back of the house you will find an undercover area / court yard and a single carport with dry access to the front door. This unique property is less than ten minutes' drive from the centre of town and only a short walk from Trevallyn's café, gourmet grocer, bakery, news agency and popular primary school.
