This native garden oasis has a lot packed into just over half an acre (2270m2). Positioned high up in the hills and surrounded by an array of native gums with a beautiful timber home that faces due north and has views over the valley, makes this a very appealing setting. There is also a separate self-contained studio, ideal for visitors.
Fully fenced and secure, the first impression you feel on arrival is the great sense of privacy and wonderful welcoming atmosphere created by the gorgeous gardens. Cleverly designed, there are many garden rooms or sections to explore and discover, making great use of the entire property.
The house has wrap around verandahs and a fantastic covered deck from where you can sit back and take in the views and soak up the sunshine that streams in through the trees. Inside, the open plan living with cathedral ceilings provides a great open space and brings the outside in through a gorgeous picture window.
The kitchen is large and practical and clear defined spaces are set out for the lounge and the dining table. The bedrooms are warm and have a homely feel. The house is kept snug in the cooler months with a slow combustion wood fire and cool in the summer with the verandahs. There is also the option of the reverse cycle air-conditioner to set at whatever your comfort levels are.
The separate studio accommodation is just off to the side with its own verandah that overlooks the garden and enjoys the native surrounds. Inside, it has a lounge with it’s own built-in wood fire and bedroom with shower and toilet facilities. This studio has great character and adds great appeal to this property.
A BBQ shelter provides another spot to escape to in the garden as does the gazebo which offers a cracking view down the valley and is a fantastic vantage point to gaze out to Mt Sleeping Beauty. Just below this is the small orchard of fruit trees and a second access ideal for the wood deliveries or your boat.
The other end of the garden provides yet another spot with a small pond and veggie garden. On the way to this, you will pass by the chook pen. Under the house there is a small workshop or great extra space for storage. This property is super practical, amazingly well maintained and clearly loved by its current owners. Within 10 minutes of Huonville and 40 Minutes of Hobart in Tasmania’s picturesque Huon Valley. Please contact me anytime for further information or to arrange an inspection to see for yourself.
