Character homestead on 18 Acres.

This magnificent federation home Circa 1915 has a prime location, set almost halfway between the quiet country township of Sheffield, the popular Town of Murals’ and Devonport, the home of the Spirit of Tasmania’. The setting very private yet allows you lovely views of the rolling countryside. Almost the first thing to catch your attention is the wonderful old trees in the garden; the Copper Beech is nearly 100 years old.

Inside you will be impressed by the size of the rooms, 5 large bedrooms would certainly sleep the largest family or make delightful Bed and Breakfast rooms. The formal dining room has an open fireplace and room for a table seating for 8 10 guests. The kitchen is Blackwood and the open plan dining/family area is warm and sunny with an open fireplace and access to a wonderful glass sunroom. The back porch is also a large glassed in area, catching the afternoon sun. The home is kept wonderfully warm in winter with a gas central heating system.

Outside, as well as the magnificent old trees, there are numerous outbuildings. The original brick stable are still standing solid and strong, a true testament to the good old days, and would have several uses besides stabling. Conversion to guestrooms would be an interesting concept. A large barn/machinery shed, measuring 26m x 14m would hold enormous amounts of farming equipment.

The paddocks are currently pasture used for grazing, but have been used for cropping in the past. There is a dam for stock water and irrigation and a spring fed for the homestead’s water supply.

This property gives you an opportunity not to be missed, country living close to town, the ambience of an era gone by and the chance to operate a magnificent Bed and Breakfast or a farm stay property in a popular tourist area.
