Supremely located in one of Acton Park’s premier enclaves, this substantial, luxurious and functional family residence will be sure to impress even the most discerning purchasers with the high level of quality accommodation on offer. Acton Park has long been regarded as a prestige rural residential suburb, with easy 15 minute access to Hobart and the Salamanca precinct, 5 minutes to Hobart Airport and of course, so close to pristine Seven Mile Beach and several renowned Golf Clubs.
Enjoying a private and premium 5 acre holding, surrounded by professionally landscaped and beautifully tended gardens, this property has been recently remodelled with particular emphasis on indoor/outdoor flow, offering six individual living zones (591 m2 total area) presenting simply outstanding function for entertaining on a grand scale together with ease of everyday living for the larger family. Neutral and modern colour choices throughout are complimented by top quality floorcoverings and richly polished solid Tasmanian Oak flooring, with the 2.7 metre ceilings accentuating the sense of space and light throughout.
Solid double doors at the entry lead to the grand formal living room, an elegant and gracious space for more formal entertaining occasions or serene evening relaxation. The main living area of the home boasts a fabulous, top quality Hamptons style kitchen with only the highest quality European Appliances throughout, whilst the ingenious butler pantry provides another Ilve electric cooker, dishwasher plus abundant storage and work space cleverly concealed but easily accessed from the main kitchen area. Forming the focal hub of the home for the present owners, considerable time and effort has been taken in maximising the functionality of this area, with dining and lounge spaces, and access to either the expansive north facing deck or covered outdoor entertaining area at the rear directly adjacent to the barbecue pavilion.
The accommodation is second to none beautifully proportioned bedrooms all with inbuilt wardrobes, and the opulent master suite is a feature in itself boasting both walk-in and inbuilt wardrobing, complimented by a stunning ensuite bathroom appointed with only the best European fittings. At the other end of the home, the children or guests bedroom wing also boasts a luxurious and spacious new bathroom appointed with a striking sense of style. In fact, should you require a fifth bedroom, the teenagers retreat or childrens playroom has separate outdoor access and would delight independent older children or possibly in-law accommodation as there are kitchen facilities in place. The laundry/utility room has been intelligently redesigned and impeccably renovated to suit the demanding needs of a very busy family, with expansive full wall inbuilt storage, integrated washing and drying facilities and additional toilet, plus direct access outdoors.
Vehicle accommodation is provided by the internally accessed double garage which also has a full wall of inbuilt cupboards for storage, plus parking on the forecourt and separate drive way leading to the front paddock with room for 20+ cars and direct gate access to residence’s main entry. Also, the separate barn allows for additional undercover parking inside, with adjacent carport.
Whether you choose to just enjoy the space and seclusion offered by the totally level five acres, or require space for the equine inclined members of the family, this property is simply ideal. The barn is easily converted to stables (existing tack room and wash down facilities) and the Tasmanian Equestrian Centre, a choice of two local pony clubs, plus an array of local horseriding instructors are all only five minutes away, not to mention the renowned Tangara riding Trail and picturesque Five Mile Beach where horses are permitted year round.
The timeless exterior of this exemplary residence conceals sleek and sophisticated interiors created by the present owners with no expense spared. Modern style melds perfectly with the ultimate in family function, complimented by top quality appointments throughout, culminating in a very special property that truly is a step above.
