About this property

River & Mountain View Retreat | Sleeps 8

  • Wake to sweeping views across the River Derwent towards kunanyi / Mount Wellington from this beautiful four-bedroom Howrah retreat. Sleeping eight, the home combines stunning timber floors, spacious open-plan living, a superb kitchen and a sun-filled deck made for enjoying the outlook. Set on a quiet street, you`re just minutes from shops and dining, around 15 minutes from Hobart CBD and 20 minutes from the airport.

    Welcome to a beautiful and spacious Howrah home where sweeping River Derwent and mountain views set the scene for your stay. Positioned on a quiet residential street, this four-bedroom home sleeps up to eight guests and offers the perfect combination of space, comfort and convenience. Whether you`re visiting Hobart with family, travelling with friends or simply looking for somewhere with room to settle in and enjoy the view, this is a wonderful base on the Eastern Shore.

    From the moment you step through the front door, the home`s beautiful hardwood timber floors make an immediate impression. Follow the entrance through to the main open-plan kitchen and dining, where natural light, generous proportions and the outlook across the River Derwent towards kunanyi / Mount Wellington create a fantastic heart of the home.

    The large kitchen has been designed with plenty of room for families and groups to cook and gather together. There is an abundance of preparation and bench space, beautiful marble-style benchtops, an electric cooktop, two wall ovens, microwave, dishwasher and a large double fridge and freezer.
