You are immediately captivated by the natural surroundings and outlook at this idyllic location. As you approach this spectacular 4.4-hectare (10.86 acres) property through your private gate, know you have arrived somewhere unique, as this impeccable landscape of gardens, vines, lush paddocks, and bushland is spellbinding and welcoming. This is the perfect forever home for anyone looking for their own slice of tranquillity, or an inspiring place to kickstart a country holiday destination or even a paddock-to-plate cooking school experience in the homestead.
This expansive home has been expertly designed and built to capture the spectacular views from every window connecting you to these stunning surroundings and creating light-filled spaces throughout the home you will love spending time in. Energy efficiency is at the forefront of the design, with the home enjoying a northerly aspect, double-glazed tilt-and-turn PVC thermally insulated windows, ceiling, and wall insulation, and 5kw solar panels keeping energy bills to a minimum.
Immerse yourself in the comfort of the home’s interior enjoying the spacious lounge room soaking up the woodfire’s warmth on a cool evening, the sunny second living zone looking out to the property’s rural vista, or taking time out in the country-style kitchen to create a culinary masterpiece. The kitchen features quality appliances and a beautiful 700-year-old Huon Pine benchtop that was originally extracted from the Strathgordon Dam. The wide blackwood floorboards are a stunning feature throughout the lower level of the home and add to the home’s feeling of genuine grandness.
The upper level takes advantage of elevated views and high ceilings, with the bedrooms being a place of quiet retreat. The master suite impresses with two walk-in robes, dual bathroom toilets, and basins plus a bath to relax in after a long day.
There are multiple outdoor leisure and entertainment spaces including a front and back veranda to enjoy your morning coffee listing to the birdlife or enjoy sipping on one of your own crafted Rieslings watching the sunset. To truly entertain in style with family and friends, the pizza oven and vine-draped pergola is nestled in the paddocks and produced filled garden. The vineyard is planted with 20-year-old Riesling and Pinot Noir grapes irrigated by the spring-fed dam. The remaining 9 paddocks and grounds have a reticulation system in place ensuring any animals have plentiful water and the gardens are kept lush throughout the year.
This is a rare opportunity for anyone passionate about creating a self-sustaining healthy lifestyle to simply move in, start living, and enjoy as all the infrastructure and hard work has already been done. You will find an array of fruit-producing trees including pears, plums, quinces, lemons, limes, and oranges plus 2 bee hives for your home supply of delicious honey. The under-house purpose-built cellar will keep your preserves at a constant cool temperature and is the perfect place to cellar your precious vintages.
Only 30 minutes to Hobart’s CBD, a few minutes to the Marina and surrounded by cellar doors, vineyards, distilleries, cafes, and an array of artisan producers, so if you are inspired by nature, love being surrounded by the music of bird life and are looking for the opportunity to embrace the gourmet farmer within in a convenient sought-after location, then this property is the perfect opportunity.
