Situated right on the banks of Browns River, with Kingston Beach Golf Club directly across the water and glimpses of Mt Wellington beyond - this gorgeous three bedroom weatherboard cottage offers an exceptional opportunity for those dreaming of a tranquil waterside lifestyle. Imagine kayaking on the river at dawn, your own private fishing spot, or just enjoying the peaceful comings and goings of life on the river from the comfort of the couch.
Built in 1925, this truly unique riverside property has clearly been a much loved and cared for home. It is in impeccable condition, and echoes the peaceful feel of its surroundings from the moment you step past the white picket fence and the pretty flower garden, filled with low maintenance plants and striking natives, attracting birds and other wildlife to the garden.
The living spaces are what make this property in such a unique location truly exceptional. Right through the front door is a light and bright sitting room, welcoming you into the home.
A lovely atrium window fills the spacious kitchen with natural light, and there is ample storage plus a gorgeous retro freestanding oven in this practical and appealing space. As with the rest of the house, the kitchen has been beautifully maintained over the years.
The absolute triumph of this property is tucked away right at the rear of the building. A generously sized lounge room with a magnificent picture window draws the outdoors in, as it looks directly out over the rear yard towards Browns River flowing right past the property. Just imagine spending a lazy afternoon sitting and watching the river, the ducks bobbing on the water and all the gentle activities of life on the water. This room is made all the more appealing with its crisp white walls, exposed timber beams and electric heating available for comfort.
There are three light and comfortable bedrooms, 2 with built-in wardrobes and a generously sized and updated bathroom, which includes a walk-in shower and plenty of storage. There is also an adjacent laundry and powder room with additional toilet.
A sliding door from the lounge provides level access right onto the covered patio and fully fenced and private rear yard, with a beautiful easy care garden. The property is situated on a 444sqm level block, which also includes a workshop with a view, carport and ample off-street parking.
Beautiful Kingston Beach is just a short stroll away, with a range of restaurants, cafes and charming boutiques on offer by the beachfront. The ever popular Kingston dog beach and Alum Cliffs walking track, plus a range of other recreational activities (such as rowing and sailing clubs) are also close by. Reach Hobart's CBD in just 10 minutes by car, or make the most of the excellent bus services right outside the door. Central Kingston provides extensive shopping opportunities, services and a vibrant community with many new developments and amenities currently underway.
