The traditional faade of this delightful residence belies the very spacious, modern extension beyond. Respecting tradition, whilst also embracing the contemporary style, was the key consideration given to the practical, efficient floor plan and intelligent use of space.

The interior colours reflect warmth and a welcoming aesthetic, successfully mixing modernity with period features. An abundance of natural light floods the living areas, courtesy of the full length double glazed windows and doors leading to the private courtyard and stunning rear garden. The extremely functional kitchen, incorporating family dining, displays Myrtle cabinetry, granite bench tops, Tas Oak flooring and large timber framed doors strategically placed to create a feature of the adjoining original sandstone wall. Three of the four double bedrooms are on the lower level, together with the spacious family bathroom, complete with free standing claw foot bath, generous walk-in shower and concealed laundry.

Two distinct areas that meld perfectly, create a cosy hub for adult interaction as well as allowing ample space for children, with French doors opening to the fully secured and very private rear garden where the cubby house, veggie patch, flower beds, meandering pathways and ‘verandah’ provide a safe and secure haven for many hours of fun and relaxation.

The fourth bedroom is incorporated in the upstairs extension together with an ensuite and copious amounts of storage. For quiet adult time, there is also a reading nook where sunshine streams through the angled windows and fresh air can circulate through several Velux windows.

Solar panels and solar tubes assist with the electricity and hot water with thermostatically controlled radiant ceiling heating, floor heating and a feature gas fired heater providing warmth and comfort. This delightful property comes complete with new wiring, new plumbing, gas and electric cooking, exterior lighting and power, garden shed, espaliered fruit trees, exotic plants, established specimen trees, pretty front cottage garden and off street parking which may be extended if required.

For those who appreciate the position in the absolute hub of Battery Point, within an easy stroll to Salamanca Place, Sandy Bay shopping precinct, the City centre and only metres to all that is associated with this superb, much admired and very desirable historic location.
