WHEN this gorgeous West Hobart family home hit the market, it was not just Tasmanians that had their eye on it.
In fact, St Andrews Estate Agents director Steve Yannarakis said he primarily received interest from Victorian buyers.
“It was snapped up by a Victorian couple who have had a lifelong dream of owning a Tasmanian property,” he said.
“They love Tasmania.”
While the home was technically sold “sight unseen”, Steve said a Hobart-based friend had inspected it for the purchaser and that FaceTime works well when showing a home to people that cannot get to Tassie due to the boarder closures.
He said it was a good tool.
“You can take people through a quite detailed inspection via FaceTime and help them to really investigate a property,” Steve said.
No.118B Goulburn Street was listed at “Offers over $1.2 million” and was sold in only a few days on the market.
Steve said his vendor was very happy with the result.
“It is easy to see what people liked about this property: it is north facing, has a magnificent garden and it is positioned at the epicentre of North Hobart, West Hobart and the city,” he said.
The house was built about 12 years ago.
The entry steps into a living, dining and kitchen zone that overlooks a cottage garden highlighted by a Heritage Listed walnut tree.
There are three bedrooms at ground level, a family bathroom and lower ground level cellar.
The upper level is home to a master bedroom and a study.
This delightful room has views toward the city and Mount Wellington.
Throughout the house there are dark stained hardwood floors, multiple french doors, an alarm system, built-in wardrobes to bedrooms and a high quality kitchen with 40mm granite benchtops, patterned glass splashback and quality appliances.
Outside there is a lined double garage with mezzanine storage.
