579 Shark Point Rd, Penna TAS 7171, Australia
Stylish Living at the Paris End!
Blessed with a stunning panorama, this contemporary beachside abode is situated at the ‘Paris end’ of Penna according to locals, in terms of shelter from prevailing winds coupled with easy access to the water’s edge as only 12 properties along Shark Point Road enjoy such access to the beach on the coastal reserve.
Penna is a quiet rural residential locality on the edge of vibrant Sorell township and Midway Point…just a 25 minute easy commute from the city fringe.
Hobart Airport is a mere 15 minutes away en route to the city and the historic township of Richmond, a tourist mecca, is a 10 minute scenic drive through vineyards and rolling hillsides.
Electric gates at the top of the aggregate driveway secure the property and from this vantage point a tantalising moving water vista is immediately apparent through an over-sized glazed entrance door.
Closer inspection reveals expansive open plan living designed to embrace the waterside spectacle, the proximity of Frederick Henry and Barilla Bays seemingly on the edge of the living space akin to an infinity pool. Lovely features include lofty ceilings, composite timber accents and light wells strategically placed to ensure an abundance of natural light.
An earthen path leads to a relatively beach inaccessible to the public and protected by a narrow coastal reserve.
There are 3 double bedrooms and studio accommodation with a bathroom, a real bonus perfect for a home office /gym or extra sleeping accommodation with independent and easy access to a landscaped garden, a superb outdoor space complete with twin Java stone freestanding baths and a fire pit for relaxing al fresco.
The accommodation is serviced by 3 bathrooms and a combination laundry/butler’s pantry. Two of the bathrooms are ensuite. The family bathroom exudes luxury, exposed copper piping and a skylight strategically situated over the bathtub enhance this space.
Stunning open plan living/dining is breathtaking, an expanse of double glazed glass spans the length of the rear facade, exposing close up Pittwater views.
The living space with clean simple lines is generously proportioned and opens to a sheltered timber deck with a pergola at one end.
Minimalist design is disciplined and complements the owners’ individual flair and style.
The kitchen commands immediate attention with creative hexagonal tiling, quality appliances and expansive work spaces. A butler’s pantry with plumbing and laundry facilities is convenient and provides extra storage.
Hidden value is represented by, double glazing ,solar panels with power grid and an irrigation timer system for the garden.
