SOUTH HOBART
11 Ferndene Ave
Three-bedroom Californian bungalow
House size: Approx 120m2
Land area: 311m2

WITH delightful views to Mt Wellington and its awe-inspiring dolerite rock feature The Organ Pipes, this exquisite 1930s home has all the craftsmanship associated with the sought after Californian bungalow design.

Well-located close by the caf precinct of popular South Hobart, the sunny property also is close to shops, schools, services, sporting facilities and the St Johns Private Hospital. And while the Hobart CBD is walk-able, public transport is conveniently near.

On the sunny corner of Ferndene Ave and Wentworth St with its historic homes, the property has a new hand-crafted front picket fence and at street level, a single garage with a panel lift door.

There’s the traditional scalloped gables and deep front verandah with tulip fretworked railing and leadlight entry to the bright entrance foyer and central hallway with a timber archway and polished floorboards.

There are three good sized bedrooms with picture rails and one having polished floorboards as well as a decorative arched fireplace. The other two are nicely carpeted with one having a floor-to-ceiling, built-in wardrobe.

The spacious carpeted lounge also has picture rails as well as a built-in book case, a wood stove set into a fireplace and a Daikin reverse cycle air conditioner.

At the end of the passage is the family/dining area with double doors to the rear barbecue courtyard, another Daikin air conditioner and a terra cotta tiled floor that extends into the adjoining Blackwood kitchen with good cupboard and bench-space and a white tile splashback. It also includes a dual sink and a Simpson stove with solid hotplates, grill and oven and a range-hood.

An adjoining vestibule provides access to the neat bathroom with a bathtub, separate shower bay, vanity unit and a Tastic light/heater/exhaust and there’s a separate toilet.

The laundry is accessed from the courtyard and the entire rear section could be re-design
