Harbour views or mountain views? Morning sun or afternoon sun? Inner city action or parklands retreat? Some of the quandaries of buying a house in Hobart. Here’s a home that won’t force you to decide.
11 Allambee Crescent enjoys a panoramic view from the harbour of the River Derwent to the pinnacle of Kunanyi/Mt Wellington. You can watch the sunrise and watch the sunset, year-round, from the privacy of the elevated living room. The back-yard soaks in the sunshine and offers possibilities for private outdoor entertaining.
The home is original in many of its features and presents an opportunity for renovation and modernization. The generous allotment slopes mildly towards the quiet terminating street and has ample room for an extension to the existing residence (STCA), if you thought you needed to. Off street parking includes a garage underneath with a large storage area.
Glebe is a highly sought-after location in Hobart. A 15-minute walk to the CBD. A 10-minute stroll to the North Hobart cafe precinct (perhaps a slightly longer stagger home?!). A short walk to the cul de sac at the end of the street will see you in the Queens Domain reserve with walking tracks and sports grounds. The Hobart Aquatic centre is at the other end of the road, with its pools, gym and sauna.
The only thing you’ll have to decide is which of these activities you’d like to do. Or you can just sit back and enjoy the views and sunshine.
The property is currently leased.
