Welcome to 811 Sandy Bay Road - a charming circa 1920s weatherboard residence that is rich in character and local history. Formerly known as the lighthouse keeper's house, 'Blues Point', the home is privately positioned at the end of an internal driveway off Pauldon Drive, nestled behind manicured hedging and established gardens.
A wrap-around verandah with original shiplap detailing frames the north-eastern side of the home, capturing a unique, sun-drenched outlook across the Derwent River.
Inside, the home's warm and inviting ambience is immediately apparent. Beautiful original features including stained glass windows and doors, picture rails, and skirting boards have been thoughtfully preserved. These are complemented by recent updates including fresh paint throughout and refurbished Tasmanian Oak flooring, offering a sense of light and continuity across the living spaces.
The open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area forms the heart of the home, kept comfortable year-round with a Masport wood heater and reverse cycle heat pump. The farmhouse-style kitchen balances charm with functionality, featuring a Fisher & Paykel double dishwasher, a generous walk-in pantry, and dining area.
Accommodation comprises three well-proportioned bedrooms, a sunroom, and a centrally located bathroom complete with a classic clawfoot bath. A separate studio, accessed via the rear courtyard, offers flexibility and could be used as a home office or workshop.
811 Sandy Bay Road also features a single garage on title with access from Sandy Bay Road, along with off-street parking along the western boundary.
Energy efficiency is well considered, with solar panels helping to minimise electricity costs year-round. The established, productive gardens provide both privacy and a wonderful outdoor environment, ideal for families or those with a passion for gardening. A garden shed and additional storage shed complete the offering.
Ideally located, the property is just moments from Pearces Park and within easy reach of Alexandra Battery Park and Long Beach, where a selection of cafés, restaurants, and local amenities can be enjoyed.
