Heritage Terrace 5 Minutes From Central Business District

Have breakfast out in the sunny courtyard of this historic home. Inside, split-system air conditioning provides both heating and cooling, with a wood-burner adding to the cosiness. Hardwood floors and off-street parking are further pluses. Surprisingly larger than the facade alludes to, the terrace is positioned over two levels. Downstairs features an open plan living/kitchen/dining area, bathroom and second living area which is furnished with a sofa bed. The kitchen area is modern and is equipped with a washing machine and dryer. The kitchen flows into a courtyard area out the back for guests to enjoy. Upstairs is the master bedroom furnished with a queen bed. It should be noted that the property is historic and the staircase to the bedroom is steep - please see the listing photos in case this is an issue. The bedroom is fitted with a split-system air conditioner for heating and cooling, whilst downstairs is heated with a wood-heater. The terrace comes with 1 x off-street car park for guests to use. The terrace is all yours during your stay. Help is only a message or phone call away during your stay. Stock up at the Sandy Bay shopping precinct just around the corner in this picturesque suburb. Public transport runs regularly along nearby Sandy Bay Rd, although all inner-city attractions, including the MONA ferry, are an easy 15-minute walk. Public transport is only a few steps away on nearby Sandy Bay Road. The Metro Tasmania bus network runs regular services into the city and down towards the Sandy Bay University campus.
