Phone enquiry code for this property : 4443

Positioned in an exclusive enclave of Sandy Bay, enjoying peace and privacy, the home is set in an elevated position and captures all day sunshine and tranquil river views.

Decorated in classic whites with period features, this home has double cavity brick construction that is warm and welcoming. Polished timber floors, two open fireplaces as well as an old Irish slow combustion wood heater warms the home the old-fashioned way. Three heat pumps or reverse cycle air conditioners are an alternative for easy climate control. Natural gas is also connected - never run out of hot water.

As you enter the home through the front sunroom, take time to enjoy the river views. At night time the lights of Wrest Point Casino, the Tasman Bridge and historic Battery Point make this a superb area to relax.

The main lounge room with open fireplace is a large area that is great for entertaining - sit back in front of an open fire and enjoy a wee dram.

Two bedrooms capture the sun throughout the day, with the main bedroom enjoying river views. Being double cavity brick, the peace and silence allows you to enjoy a great nightrsquo;s sleep.

A formal dining room with open fireplace was once a third bedroom, and flowing on from the current kitchen, this room is another area to sit and enjoy conversation or can be utilised as a third guest room.

The kitchen/dining room is a light filled room with slow combustion wood heater and boasts views of Mount Wellington. Off this room through double doors, a large sun deck flows out into a generous sized private backyard. Perfect for outdoor entertaining, enjoying the afternoon sun or a BBQ with family and friends.

The main bathroom has a shower over bath along with a toilet and is classically decorated. An additional combined bathroom and laundry has a large flat access shower and toilet with grab rails for the infirm.

The garden boxes in the yard have provided so many different vegetables and give a self-sufficient lifestyle of home-grown food. The many established fruit trees also provide seasonal enjoyment of the diverse range of Tassie produce.

The home has current city council registration approval for Airbnb where part of the home can provide an income. The solid construction of double cavity brick provides the potential to go up one level in expanding the residence and maximising river views, which cannot be lost due to lsquo;topside of the streetrsquo; positioning. The land size and position could also be utilised to build an auxiliary dwelling so the options for a separate granny flat would not be overcapitalising in this area.

Close to gourmet Hill Street and Lipscombe Larder, UTAS Sandy Bay Campus, The Hutchins school, Waimea Heights Primary School, 10 minutes to Hobart City Centre, Battery Point and Salamanca Market. The white sands of Long Beach plus numerous coffee shops are a short stroll away.

Set against an ever-changing river backdrop amid high calibre residences in a blue-chip leafy street, 3 Ilfracombe Crescent is a home ready to move into immediately. This property is a residence to be enjoyed for generations, a rare find in such a tightly held locale.
