The long time owner of this fully renovated and character filled 3 bedroom, 2 storey duplex is downsizing to an apartment and now needs to sell come auction day. He’s loved living here and this is reflected in the presentation of the home and the high standard of renovations.

Located just a short stroll from the Australian War Memorial and the lake and close to both the CBD and the very hip Braddon precinct, this is a genuine townhouse alternative. The other aspect not to be underestimated about this location is it’s proximity to the popular Campbell 5 precinct and it’s various bars and restaurants (including the relocation of the fabulous Lanterne Rooms).

The hand of an architect has been at play here and walls have been removed to open up the living area and bring more natural light into the home. The kitchen was relocated and replaced fully in 2007 and remains stylish and well appointed. The laundry and bathroom have also been beautifully renovated in the same style as the kitchen. A double glazed window added in the bathroom will help protect you from the elements on those frosty, chilly Winter mornings and an additional powder room off the laundry will provide amenity for your guests.

The home faces north and the open plan living spills through sliding doors onto a sunny, covered front deck. Other features include polished timber floors and a powerful mains gas fireplace which keeps the home toasty warm. All three sliding doors leading onto the front deck and those accessing the rear gardens are double glazed for greater energy efficiency and noise reduction. There is a carport under the roofline and a lock up garage completes the picture.

The location of the house in the front third of the block means that there is a deep backyard with plenty of room to extend.
