Substantial home & separate unit in prime location

Desirably positioned in one of Sandy Bay's most sought after streets, this property comprises a substantial family home as well as a separate ancillary dwelling at the rear, both on the one title. With an estimated combined potential weekly rental income of $1,200, this opportunity will suit astute investors, but will also appeal to large families, and to those who may wish to occupy one dwelling and receive rental income from another.<br/><br/>The main house retains many original features throughout. The two downstairs bedrooms are generously proportioned and both have built in wardrobes. A sunroom/study area in the front bedroom offers a sunny place to work or relax. Upstairs, the large master suite comprises a large bedroom with a sitting area, an ensuite, and a sun deck with views of Sandy Bay and glimpses of the water. The kitchen offers plenty of space to prepare meals and has ample storage, both in the timber joinery and the walk-in pantry.<br/><br/>Built in 2016, the one bedroom unit at the rear has a spacious open plan living area. The stylish kitchen is equipped with quality appliances and stone benchtops. The bedroom is serviced by a modern bathroom, which leads through to a walk in robe. A dedicated office provides the perfect place to work from home, and the laundry includes a second toilet, which adds amenity. From the unit, there is direct sliding door access to the 54sqm covered entertaining deck with remote operated blinds, providing fabulous indoor-outdoor living. With 21 solar panels and a 7.9-star energy rating, the unit can be kept comfortable year-round whilst keeping costs to a minimum. Heat pump hot water systems in both dwellings are a further economical advantage.<br/><br/>Outside the property continues to impress. The backyard is fantastic for entertaining family and friends whilst enjoying time outdoors. A small tank has been installed for watering the garden, which is fairly low maintenance. In the backyard there is a garden shed, and further storage can be found in the garage.<br/><br/>The home enjoys a superb location within easy walking distance of excellent local schools, the Sandy Bay retail and hospitality precinct, Hill Street Grocer, University of Tasmania, nearby parks, as well as the Hobart CBD.
