Superb location, water views, classic family home

Located in the heart of Sandy Bay, this spacious, solid brick, four bedroom home built in 1936 has not been offered for sale for half a century. Situated on a private, internal block, it has beautiful water views across the Derwent River, gently sloping lawns with established garden and mature trees, and driveway access from two streets. Combining a mixture of late inter-war architectural features reflecting growing prosperity with touches of popular Art Deco, the home has well-proportioned rooms, large windows and a sense of space conveying genteel charm and style.

With no street frontage to consider, the house has been built facing the river with a northerly aspect, thereby maximising sunlight and water views. Across the front, the beautifully proportioned dining room and adjoining sitting room are on one side of the entry foyer, while the spacious primary bedroom occupies the other. The kitchen and separate laundry extend behind the dining room, offering an ideal space for remodelling either as separate entities or combined to create a contemporary, open-plan living zone. The options are numerous and exciting. Two bedrooms and the family bathroom run along the rear of the home, while stairs lead down to a large fourth bedroom or living space, along with internal access to a secure double garage. All the bedrooms have built-in cupboard spaces and other storage cupboards can be found in the hallways.

The driveway from Derwentwater Avenue sweeps up to the front of the house showcasing its attractive façade. The lawn slopes gently down towards the river and is framed by bushes and mature trees, amongst which is a delightful garden gazebo, perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea or evening drinks. This is a low maintenance garden with scope for a new owner to develop as desired. The driveway from Ilfracombe Crescent approaches the house from the rear and joins the other driveway along the western side of the home. An attractive, practical paved patio area extends along the back of the house, an ideal space for alfresco living.

This property is in a most popular area of Sandy Bay: it is not only close to both public and private schools, UTAS and public transport, but it also has easy access to the Sandy Bay shopping precinct and the recreational water activities of Marieville Esplanade. It has been a much treasured family home for the past 50 years and is ready to be loved again in the 21st Century by another generation.
