Overview

This well-positioned home at 1 Kimberley Street offers a balance of investment potential and comfortable family living amid a growing community in Rokeby.

The residence welcomes you via a covered front porch leading to a slate-floored entry, setting a sense of warmth and durability. The spacious lounge room invites relaxation while offering captivating water views of Ralph's Bay. Enhanced with a Daikin heat pump and ducted air circulation system, the home maintains year-round comfort through efficient climate control.

Flowing from the lounge, the dining area looks out toward peaceful green paddocks, creating a serene dining experience. The adjoining timber kitchen is both functional and inviting, featuring a corner pantry and modern conveniences that support flexible cooking and convenience. The layout supports both connectedness and quiet retreat, fitting varying lifestyle needs.

Three bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes, are conveniently placed close to the family bathroom and separate toilet, ensuring practicality for families. The sizable laundry includes ramped access to the clothesline and yard, easing daily chores and outdoor access.

Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, this property includes extras that enhance lifestyle and utility beyond typical newer builds. A workshop and an expansive downstairs area previously approved for studio conversion provide ideal spaces for home office, rumpus, or hobbies. These flow from a long garage equipped with an electric roller door, supporting secure parking and storage.

Sustainability features such as solar panels, recent insulation enhancements, and a garden water tank underline the home's efficiency and eco-consciousness.

The fully gated backyard is a gardener’s delight, stocked with a variety of edible plants including potatoes, kale, rosemary, bay leaf, raspberries, grapes, apples, nectarine, apricot, and cherry. An existing covered courtyard presents opportunities for outdoor entertaining, with potential for further improvement to create a personal oasis.

Rokeby itself continues to develop, complemented by the convenience of a new shopping centre at Glebe Hill, plentiful services, and a swift 20-minute drive to Hobart city and airport, offering residents both tranquility and accessibility.
