142 Waterworks Rd, Dynnyrne TAS 7005

With all the benefits of suburban living coupled with the advantages of a country lifestyle, it?s hard to believe that this picturesque property is only 3.5 kilometres from the GPO. Imagine sitting on the deck on a warm day, sipping your favourite beverage whilst watching the children play in and around the creek knowing they are within view. And if this area doesn?t provide enough options for outside activities, a mere 750 metres from this idyllic property is the entrance to Hobart?s Waterworks Reserve, a popular picnic, barbeque and recreational spot for locals.

The additional block of land of some 1.77 hectares on its own separate title is one of the features of this property which sets it apart from all the neighbouring homes. Currently inhabited by chickens and sheep, its uses are many and it stretches all the way to Romilly Street. There is the possibility of developing this block, subject to council approval of course. The majority of the area is native flora but the section closest to the house has been cleared and has some wooden frames covered with wire and netting. The bridge which crosses the stream (Sandy Bay Rivulet) and provides pedestrian access between both blocks looks like something out of a picture postcard.

The 229 m2 home is of generous proportions and sits on a block of approximately 1,100 m2. The 2 storey house has 5 bedrooms, one of which is utilised as a study, 2 bathrooms (1 of which is an ensuite), a sun soaked upstairs living room which looks out towards the nearby hillside and neighbouring walking track, a massive open plan lounge/kitchen/dining downstairs (fitted with ceiling heat), a deck overlooking the leafy valley and a separate laundry which provides access to a secret room which is great for storage or which could be developed further.
