PRETTY as a picture, this Tyrolean-style alpine cottage is an inspiration!
True tree-change, the charming home is an idyll for the artiste, a bonus being a close-by and self-contained studio/chalet.
Located high on a ridge in the southern foothills of iconic Mt Wellington, there’s a view toward Cathedral Rock and the freshest of air is lightly scented with eucalypt from surrounding gum trees.
The residence is on two levels with a high pitched roof and sundecks on both levels accessed through sliding doors.
On the lower level is the living/dining room with a most efficient woodheater, an adjoining German Beech kitchen with marble worktops, good storage, bench-space and European appliances and a bathroom with toilet.
Upstairs are two good sized bedrooms with built-in wardrobes.
The back door opens to a grand covered entertainment area with a stone chiminea and a roofed walkway to the studio with its wood heated living area/work area, kitchen,and laundry and bathroom with another toilet.
Attached is a double carport and a woodshed.
The grounds about the buildings are well cleared with established gardens and ponds.
While the property is nicely secluded at the end of a long tree-lined driveway, there still are neighbours within cooee and Hobart city is but a 20 minute drive away on sealed roads, either via Kingston or along the scenic mountain-side Fern Tree route.
Picturesque in the extreme, this is a Hooker one looker! So be quick.
