Beautiful quiet rural property with many rare and unusual cool climate trees, shrubs, perennials and bulbs.The freshly painted circa 1920 house features a large verandah, renovated kitchen with dishwasher, deep pot drawers and double glazed window.
The combined lounge and dining room has lovely stained glass features and a huge picture window giving great views to the garden and valley beyond. Reverse cycle air conditioning and saxon wood heater will keep you cosy. The large, fully insulated side room with double glazed windows and sliding door would make a great studio or gym. A double carport off this room is currently being utilised as accommodation for one car and a huge amount of firewood for easy access.
There is a small orchard including heritage apples, cherries, peaches, nectarine, almond and a hazelnut grove. Also a netted berry patch with many raspberries, brambles and blueberries. A large organic vegetable garden, hot house and two chook sheds makes self sufficiency a reality. Good pasture currently supports three Scottish highland cattle and two calves. Water is plentiful with a spring-fed dam, bore and three rainwater tanks, with irrigation around much of the beautiful gardens. There is also a winter-flowing creek along the northern boundary.
The house has 11 solar panels with 2.5kw inverter and a heat pump hot water system, greatly reducing power bills. The large powered workshop with another adjoining vehicle space (enclosed on 3 sides) and two garden sheds will give you ample room for those outdoor projects. All this just 45 minutes from Hobart CBD!
