This updated 1900 period home is all within a stone’s throw of Salamanca and a host of local galleries, cafes, and restaurants…with the famous Jackman & McRoss Bakery Cafe under a 200m level walk from the house!
The brand-new improvements include a roof restoration, new 7.5m * 1.4m deck under the front bullnose veranda, rear spacious and sunny courtyard with a 5.3m * 3.8m rear entertainment deck (and an established productive lemon tree), new carpet in the large bedrooms (with honeycomb blinds), a large walk-in double shower bay plus a separate bath tub, and new flooring in the laundry/bathroom area.
The home is ready to move into, features beautiful original newly restored hardwood floorboards with the possibility to add further value by re-modelling the bathroom/laundry zone (given how spacious it currently is) and adding another room down the track (STCA). The open plan lounge/dining zone are bathed in light and are open to the kitchen.
Located in one of Australia’s most liveable suburbs, the home is situated between the historic Princes Park, Kelly’s Steps and the famous Jackman & McRoss bakery café, the property is close to the vibrant Hobart CBD, Salamanca, the waterfront precinct, and the Sandy Bay shopping zone, and is private, quiet, and secure.
