Bellerive Federation near Eastlands

This well-built 1905 weatherboard on a solid sandstone foundation has been totally updated for modern comfortable living. It’s only a 4 minute walk to Eastlands or a 7 minute drive to the city. The low-maintenance cottage garden has a friendly feeling as you approach the front door. From the vestibule entry stretches an arched hallway with picture rails and other Federation features such as four-panel solid doors, 10 ft ceilings and ceiling roses.


Northern exposure, big windows, new skylights and French doors bathe the spacious rooms in natural light and sunshine. The kitchen features double sink and breakfast-bar, and opens to a delightful dining area with original polished floors. French doors in the family room extend the comfortable living space onto the large private deck, a perfect place to admire the views of the mountain and across the busy Derwent to Sandy Bay.


Accommodation features 3 bedrooms or 2 plus study. A new family bathroom has a separate bath and a large shower, and the master bedroom has a new en-suite. A two-room outbuilding lends itself to multiple uses from shed/workshop to hobby rooms with electricity and wet area. The fenced patio and small low-maintenance garden with vegie patch is perfect for a barbecue or just sitting in the sun. There is off-street parking for two cars.


This delightful house has the charm of its age and the comfort of today – and it’s convenient to everything.
