Rarely do you stumble upon a property that tugs at your heart strings and makes you wish you could buy it. As the sales agent, I live on a working farm, but upon my first visit, I thought I would love to buy this property, if my circumstances were different.
If you are the type of buyer who appreciates a beautiful garden in a gorgeous setting on just under 1 acre of land (3805m2), then you had better come quick.
The owners have lived here for 30 years and have established this small piece of paradise from a bare paddock. The home was built in 1880 and has undergone most major renovations except for the kitchen.
The roof and guttering is near new (2016). The home has been rewired and most parts re-plumbed. There is gas hot water (2014) and a 5 kilowatt solar system added 5 years ago. The owners are in credit for the summer and their power costs for the whole year is only around $300.
The property has three large rain water tanks, but in the last few years Tas Water now supplies this area. So water is endless.
The home has lovely terracotta tiles throughout, has been replastered and a few walls removed to offer open plan living. The lounge room has a gorgeous French door that opens out to a large family deck which is covered and offers sensational views across the gardens to the mountains with snow in winter.
Words cannot describe the peaceful and tranquil feeling at this property.
Dad will be equally impressed with the wide access off the main road for a large truck or caravan, and room for multiple vehicles.
The Colorbond 4 bay garage with workshop is also an added bonus.
The only thing that you will need to do is to install a new kitchen. There is also a wonderful pantry room off to the side for extra storage.
Other features include a large wood fire with ceiling fan that heats the whole house, an extra toilet in the laundry area, easily accessible from outside. Various established fruit trees and two water fountains that stay as part of the garden features.
NBN is available, but not hardwired to the property. Towers are now located in the area.
This property ideally suits a variety of buyers including retirees who enjoy gardening, or a small young family, as the yard is fully fenced and safe for pets and young children.
Located on a school bus route. Lilydale township is a only 9 kilometres away, for most conveniences.
Launceston CBD is a 28 kilometre or 22 kms to the Mowbray shopping precinct.
