4 York St, Bellerive TAS 7018

Built around the turn of the 20th Century in the early days of Federation, this home reflects the features of its colonial past mixing both Georgian symmetry with Victorian detail. Situated in a quiet area, the building's traditional past is evident from the street, but hides an elegant, modern extension at the rear, creating a stylish four bedroom, two bathroom home. Close to Kangaroo Bay and Bellerive village, 'Belle York' exudes charm and sophistication.

The original front part of the house has three of the four spacious double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, the master also having a generous, well-designed walk-through robe leading to a contemporary en suite. The family bathroom continues this theme with its quality modern fixtures and fittings, while the dark green tiles reflect those of an original fireplace. The hallway with deep architraves has polished floorboards that extend through to the next phase of the home: the stylish open-plan kitchen living space.

This modern area has been cleverly designed with spacious kitchen, dining and living areas, which open through large sliding doors onto the expansive entertainment deck. The fourth bedroom, part of the original home, is off this living space and has the versatility to be a bedroom, home office, study or media room. Underfloor heating is provided to the polished concrete living areas and bathrooms. The property also features six skylights, mudroom, laundry with ample storage, a third toilet and an entrance foyer from the driveway. The north-facing rear deck with its built in barbecue and fridges has all day sun and privacy: ideal for entertaining or simply relaxing throughout the year.
