Stunning Home Spectacular Views So Many Options

Welcome to Oakfield, the original homestead and 50 acres of what was once a much larger rural property. Oakfield is located some 15 kms inland from the highly popular township of Forth on the Central Coast of Northern Tasmania and only a short drive from both Ulverstone and Devonport.

Oakfield will take your breath away. As an agent with many years of viewing property behind me, I have very rarely ever had the pleasure of walking through a home and property as stunning as this and one that has so much to offer for so many different applications and pursuits.

Whether you are seeking a superbly presented timber federation home with good quality acreage for equestrian purposes, a lifestyle farm where you can retire and run a mob of sheep or a small herd of cattle in heavenly surrounds, or perhaps you have the requirement for two separate and self-contained living areas that could be equally well utilised as your home with a stunning bed and breakfast facility or a private living area for a member of your family, Oakfield will easily cater for all these purposes and more.

The home is magnificent. Built in two stages, the original Oakfield homestead was built around 1920 in a typically highly attractive design of that period featuring wide covered verandas, high ceilings, plenty of space, good size bedrooms and of course, a large and roomy kitchen with a walk in pantry to cater for a larger family working on the land. The kitchen has been beautifully renovated while the main bathroom is superb and there is extensive use of natural high quality timber through both and throughout much of the home. The lounge and entertainment areas are full of charm and character and you cannot help but relax and be at ease in the ambience of this beautiful residence.

Yet there is still more to enjoy. In 2004 a sympathetically designed extension was completed which has added an amazing self-contained separate living facility to the home with many potentially different usages. Accessed through a common foyer but with a private entrance, this wing of the home could so easily be utilised as a stunning parents retreat, a superb living quarters for an elderly relative or a magnificent Bed and Breakfast facility (STCA), or it could very easily be let out to a permanent tenant.

With a huge bedroom complete with a beautifully appointed en-suite, the extension has taken advantage of the spectacular views of the rural landscape and rolling hills through the near wall to wall and floor to ceiling windows of the full size and very comfortable lounge area. A fully appointed kitchen and a spare room for storage complete this superb living space. All in all, the entire home has 307m2 of under roof space.

Back outside to the acreage and external facilities, buyers should not lose track of the fact that this is a genuine small lifestyle farm that will require stock to maintain the excellent pasture which is sensibly divided into manageable watered paddocks. The western boundary leads into a valley and creek and approximately 16 acres of the property here are naturally forested. The farm facilities include several small utility sheds, an excellent machinery shed, a double garage with storage space and a fully operational and high yield water bore. The home is surrounded by lovely cottage gardens and grounds.

All in all, Oakfield offers those looking for a small farm with a high quality and superbly attractive home, an opportunity to secure your dream at a very realistic price. Some furniture and white goods may be included in a sale. Properties such as these with so much to offer are few and far between. The owners have a real requirement to relocate and inspections from genuine buyers are highly recommended.
