Renovated with a view to resort-style living, this property comfortably blends Victorian era features with conveniences for our modern lifestyle. The home offers formal and informal living spaces with classic character features from the era including ornate cornices and ceiling roses, beautiful Baltic pine floorboards, grand front entry, front bay window and verandah. The upper level offers indoor and outdoor dining (on the deck) with the kitchen being the hub for a gourmet cooking experience. Granite bench tops and St George appliances, integrated dishwasher, fridge plus breakfast bar are cleverly arranged in this functional space. The spacious formal lounge is a quiet retreat at the front of the home, while the main bedroom and bathroom are located on this level at the rear boasting a calm and sunny morning ambience.
The home downstairs expands into two more bedrooms, one with small ensuite, laundry with additional toilet (to service the pool area), large rumpus, indoor pool complex and huge outdoor patio. This is the place to enjoy all year round swimming with solar heated pool and vergola for that fresh air experience. The patio offers potential for a roof-top garden or a great area for the kids to play. The adjacent small pool room’ makes a playhouse or sun room for the patio.
Garaging is unbeatable here, with a triple garage as a massive space for two vehicles, plus home gym, office or trailer storage. Access is available via the Elphin Villas driveway, exiting out to Racecourse Crescent. There is an additional parking bay at street level on Elphin Road. With the concept of low maintenance top of mind, there is very little garden to look after. The front courtyard is beautifully fenced and planted with a small formal garden.
Located within walking distance to the CBD, Launceston Aquatic and Gym centre, parks, schools, sporting facilities and shops, this property would suit a family with teenagers a professional couple or young minded retirees.
