5 Wallace Street

Positioned on an enviable parcel that leads directly to the water's edge, this late 1800's built home invites you to live a life dictated by the gentle tides and the shifting light of the Derwent River. Located in an exclusive enclave on the western side of the Bridgewater Bridge, this private, waterfront property is surrounded by lush, landscaped gardens, creating a sumptuous and secluded personal sanctuary for you and your family. Throughout the main living area, modern hybrid flooring offers a sleek, durable aesthetic, contrasting beautifully with the timber cladded walls and Victorian character of this meticulous home. For those cooler Tasmanian evenings, the residence is warmed by the soul-stirring glow of a freestanding Scandia wood heater, creating an atmosphere of refined comfort. The heart of the home is a sophisticated, upgraded kitchen - a culinary masterpiece featuring sleek stone benchtops, a high-efficiency induction cooktop, double oven and timelessly textured tile splashbacks. Double-glazed cafe windows make for easy entertaining, connecting the kitchen with you and your mingling guests outside. The master suite serves as a true private retreat, featuring glass stacker doors that open directly onto a secluded courtyard deck, perfect for a quiet morning coffee. Another bedroom incorporates a fabulous built in double bunk, perfect for kids sleep overs or for when the relatives come down for Christmas on the river. All 3 bedrooms are bright, light filled, with quality sisal carpets under foot. The indulgence continues in the expertly renovated bathroom, where a generous double shower and a deep, freestanding bath offer a spa-like escape. An internal laundry showcases some clever joinery and provides loads of storage space. Outside, the property is fully fenced for total peace of mind, complete with a charming cubby house and a massive powered garage and workshop that caters to any creative or professional pursuit. This is an invitation to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the river, whether you are launching a kayak for a sunrise paddle, casting a line, or simply admiring the local birdlife from your own backyard. If you ever wish to venture outside of your own personal playground, or take the dog for a trot, the coastal Dromedary walk starts just down the road. The property is located within a 5 minute drive of 2 shopping centres, a Catholic primary school and public high school, with easy access to public transport. The Brighton business hub is less than 10 minutes away whilst the Glenorchy city CBD is around 15 minutes drive, with the Hobart CBD a further 10 minute commute.
