Set in well organised, private gardens this tastefully renovated cottage lies at the heart of a rural block of almost 1 acre. The surrounding area is well tended farmland and the property boasts extensive views to Bass Strait, the Dial Range, Black Bluff and the Blythe River Valley. Vegetable, fruit, cottage and woodland gardens adjoin a small grazing area at the rear of the property.
A simple 8 minute drive takes you to the main street of Penguin and also some of the North Wests finest beaches. The local school buses stop at the front gate and it is an easy commute to the City of Burnie and Ulverstone or Devonport.
The brick cottage of approximately 166m2 is fully insulated and features 3 bedrooms and a large open kitchen/dining/living area. The kitchen and bathroom have had a major, recent update and there is an excellent rear entry/utility area and covered patio. Beautiful stained glass features, Tasmanian Oak flooring and a spacious Celery Top timber deck round off what really is a lovely home.
Complementing the cottage design is a double garage and workshop of around 60m2 adjacent to the home and a centrally located independent triple carport and garden/pump shed.
The surrounding well established cottage and woodland gardens are simply stunning. Fruit trees are integrated with both exotics and natives including many of Tasmanias iconic species. Fencing and hedging create a beneficial micro-climate and a stand of eucalypts provide a continuous supply of firewood. A fresh water bore compliments the rainwater tanks providing a reliable, ample water supply for the highly productive vegetable, fruit and berry gardens.
An ideal walk-in, sustainable lifestyle property particularly suited to those who value a quiet, safe and productive environment
