What's around 5 Magnolia Rd

VERY SOLID REFRESHED HOME

This double brick, three bedroom house is located within 10kms from the Hobart CBD. It also sits high on the hill with Mount Wellington and district views. Backing onto the beautiful Meehan State Recreation Reserve offering a bush outlook from the kitchen window and great walking tracks nearby. With afternoon sun streaming into two bedrooms and the living room the home is light, bright and cheerful. The interior features polished woodwork and lovely 8'11 high ceilings, faithful to its solid 1963 construction. The house has been maintained by its current owner to a very high standard; The Daiken heat pump and power board have both been replaced, are less than 6 months old and therefore are still in Warranty. The kitchen has just been renovated and has a new dishwasher and a freestanding Belling induction cooker. All carpets and the kitchen / laundry floor are new. The house is insulated and has been freshly painted throughout. Secure fencing and tall gates on either side of the property mean a safe back big garden of more than 260sqm approx. for the kids to play, or the perfect blank canvas to create your landscaping masterpiece. The garage and storage under, is secure with plenty of dry accessible space for all the boy's-toys. Invaluable. For homeowners: Add a large rear deck for the outdoor lounge and the barbeque, then invite over all your friends. Set up a raised veggie patch in the sun across the back fence line, or go-to-town with that kitchen garden you've always wanted. This is a place to call home, a step into a suburb that is trending upwards. For investors: A great ROI with rental returns at $300 per week. Zero work required before you lease to a new tenant. For everyone: A well-maintained, solid house with nothing to spend on purchase and confidence into the future. - Recently refreshed brick home - Incredibly affordable opportunity - Stunning kitchen and bathroom - Large pet and child friendly yard - Views of Mount Wellington Year Built: 1963 Construction: Brick Veneer Heating: Electric

Up-front honest and totally professional

Alisha worked hard to be nominated as our real-estate agent, and we mean hard. She literally had to pound the pavement: Visiting the unoccupied house, turning lights on and off for us, coordinating key entry for tradies, etc. We cannot fault her market knowledge, or her sales professionalism. Where there was a tad of a problem was in communicating to us out-of-State owners, the intracies of the Tasmanian purchase process. We had (mistakenly) thought we understood the marketing timetable and the order of events, only to find ourselves having to make on-the-spot decisions because in reality, we had not understood when a Tasmanian Purchase Contract was irrevocable (even though we are experienced owners). As a suggestion: Perhaps a written document/flowchart of the order of events might be useful for those owners and buyers who are not from Tasmania. We didn't have a need to explicitly test Alisha's negotiation skills because she found our buyer within 24 hours of the house going on the market. What a relief! From the marketing information she provided (and months of our own research) we knew the offer we received was not excessive, but fair. When Alisha told us that this first offer from the buyers was their maximum bid, we trusted her to be telling us the truth (Credibility=5-stars). We accepted the offer with no negotiations. The three stars for Negotiation Skills are therefore a "not applicable" result. The fees for Alisha's guidance through the process were near enough identical to those quoted from other well known real-estate offices in Hobart. Buying or selling is an incredibly stressful time - even for an inexpensive property, it's a LOT of money. You may well find a cheaper sales representative that Alisha, but you won't find a better one. And in our opinion, buying or selling property is not the time to risk saving a few dollars in contracting to anyone less than totally professional.
