The large front lawn has been designed as a croquet lawn and you can find croquet, boules and bowls equipment at the home. The orchard also has a swing set and trampoline for the children. Ideally located in the popular bayside suburb of Lindisfarne, the home is less than 10 minutes to Hobart's CBD, 15 minutes to the airport and a short walk to Lindisfarne Village with all it has to offer including cafes, shops, parks and reserves and public transport.

This part of the Lindisfarne waterfront is lined by beautiful heritage homes that enjoy spectacular water & mountain views as well as fantastic peace & privacy. The location is safe, an easy walk to local cafes, supermarket & food-outlets. It's an easy 10min. drive to the Hobart CBD, 8min. drive to Eastlands mall or Bellerive Beach. Nearby Natone Hill & the waterfront walkway provide local walking & cycling trails & the nearby Geilston Bay & Meehan Range recreational areas provide great local mountain biking options!
