This property offers a great country lifestyle with plenty of charm. Nestled in the picturesque Huon Valley there are lovely rural, valley and surrounding mountain views. Positioned near the beautiful Huon River estuary and only a stroll into the centre of the historic riverside town of Franklin, the house sits on the edge of a large 3328m2 lot (over 3/4 acres) and is surrounded by easy-care, established gardens. There are fruit trees including apricot, cherries, apples, pear and plum cherry with an array of other ornamental plants to really set the scene. Next to the house is a fully fenced pasture paddock allowing for a few sheep, a goat and a pony. A chook pen out the back will supply you with fresh eggs and there is plenty of space to establish your own veggie garden.
The house is bright and airy and has timber floors throughout. The kitchen and dining have plenty of that country charm and include some modern day luxuries, such as dishwasher and even comes with a wall-mounted coffee grinder. The bathroom is central to the bedrooms and includes a shower over a bath and toilet. The 3rd bedroom makes a great sitting room with views out to the surrounding mountains. The main living room has large picture windows bringing the lovely mountain views inside. Fully set up with fixed line internet and Austar ready, this house offers a great country charm without missing out on todays technology. Heating is from a built in slow combustion wood heater with a system to duct the heat into other rooms.
At the rear there is a covered area, a separate laundry with second toilet, a workshop or tool shed and further storage. The covered area opens up to a concrete area in the garden which is perfect for your outdoor setting.
For your shopping, Huonville is only 5 minutes away. Here you will find all your shops and services, such as supermarkets, doctors, hardware, banks and mechanics, just to name a few. Hobart is only a further 35 minute, picturesque drive, making it an easy and pleasant commute if you need to access Hobart on a daily basis. The town of Franklin is very quaint and offers a variety of eating houses, antiques and a large grassed public foreshore. Franklin is also the home of the wooden boat centre and Living Boat Trust.
