Marieville Esplanade is a much sought-after location, close to the boundary of Sandy Bay and Battery Point. Opposite parkland and beach, this stylish 2 – 3 bedroom modern property has views across moored boats to the Derwent River and the hills of the Eastern Shore. Built 10 years ago, the home has maintained the integrity of the area whilst accommodating 21st Century modern living. On the ground floor is open-plan living with river views. Sliding doors open from the dining area to a courtyard and garden with prudently planted trees and shrubs allowing sunshine, shade and privacy; whilst the living area with its modern gas fire offers cosiness for grey winter days. The well-appointed kitchen has quality cabinetry and appliances, and a laundry and separate powder room lead to a spacious double garage giving easy and secure access to the home, plus valuable off-street parking. On the upper level the master bedroom has stunning views of the river: an ever-changing scene. An en suite and walk-in wardrobe complement the master suite whilst a second bathroom and spacious bedroom complete the upper floor accommodation. A wall has been removed to form the spacious second bedroom; if replaced will return two smaller bedrooms or a bedroom and home office. Having experienced the appeal of the house and the garden, further delights are in store: not only a well-appointed workshop but also a charming studio, the latter situated at the end of the courtyard – an ideal area for outdoor entertaining. The workshop is neatly gated at the rear of the house in a utility area. This property, being close to many popular facilities, is in a prime location: within walking distance of Sandy Bay shopping centre with its many commercial and retail services, the Sandy Bay campus of UTAS, and the delights of historic Battery Point with its numerous cafés and restaurants; two sailing clubs are a few metres along the Esplanade; a children's park is across the road; and the Sandy Bay Bowls Club is around the corner. This is an ideal, low maintenance property for the discerning buyer.
