Tucked away in the North-facing foothills of Hobart's Kunanyi-Mount Wellington, this home offers the perfect balance of tranquility and urban connection. And the views are spectacular! Beautifully designed (2014), the house is built with quality modern fittings, seamlessly matched with European-style traditional solid-timber joinery. With no visible neighbours or nearby buildings, it is hard to believe you're only 15 minutes' drive from Hobart's city centre and 5 minutes from the nearest Coles and Woolworths. The house is oriented North and has been carefully designed and built with passive solar principles and technology, ensuring that it stays warm all winter and cool in the summer. Virtually no extra heating is required to maintain lovely ambient temperatures inside. Acoustic insulation and double glazing throughout also ensure that it remains quiet, even during the fiercest of Tasmanian weather! You will also be wonderfully surprised by the internal air quality. The house is built as close to zero VOC (volatile organic compounds) standards as possible. It contains no melamine, MDF, Polyurethane, synthetic textiles, or off-gassing compounds that are recognised as modern health hazards. A 4.5KW solar system keeps your power bills low and the 80,000 litre rainwater system means you don't have to worry about water bills either. It also means you are showering in 100% pure Tasmanian sky water. There is NBN optic fibre to the premise making it a perfect oasis for home working and any other digital needs. There is also a 32 square metre studio, complete with full acoustic insulation, double glazing, and raked ceiling/exposed trusses - perfect for a creative space, teenager's pad, rental, or a granny flat project. The land package is very generous at 1.6 hectares or approximately 4 acres. It has been carefully curated to nurture the native trees and plants (predominantly acacia-sheoak) and provides an important corridor for native fauna. There have been sightings of spotted quolls, echidna, bandicoots and even Tasmanian devils on the property. If you are looking for a place where you can truly unwind and stoke your creative energy, this is it.
