Positioned at the end of a rural cul-de-sac and then down a private driveway, this 9.25 acre (3.74 ha) property offers great privacy and with preliminary costs and work already all done. Set high up in the hills of Franklin, the air is fresh and the surrounds are of tall gums with ferns to discover. There are hints of the view over Franklin through the trees of the Huon River and rolling green hills down below, as well as a great view of Mt Sleeping Beauty out to the north.
At the end of the driveway, you arrive at a large cleared area prepared to comply with fire safety regulations and a building site ready to go. There is underground power already connected, the soil tests are done, the fire management plan is done, the septic plumbing plans are done, there are even house plans should you be interested in those too. Depending on what you’d like to build, most of the preliminary work is already complete.
Set on 3 levels, the first is currently used for an on-site caravan, should you want to live there whilst you build. The next level has the power connected to 3 small storage sheds complete with concrete floors, ideal to store your belongings whilst you are building. Next is the large prepared building site. The options are open for building on the flat pad, or build just in front of that, keeping the flat area for behind the house. Either way, your front deck will be elevated with a north east aspect and with further selective clearing, will benefit from amazing views.
Surrounding the cleared site there are big, gracious gums and the other half of the property is completely covered with native bush, providing a fabulous setting with plenty of exploring to do. This is wildlife heaven. You will get wallabies, quolls, wombats and even possibly hear the odd Tassie Devil. There will be swift parrots in the trees amongst many, many other birds and topped off with majestic wedge tail eagles circling above. This is a wonderfully peaceful and natural setting with a clear canvas right in the middle of it all, ready for your creation.
The quaint historic riverside town of Franklin is only 5 minutes by car down the hill, Huonville is a further 10 minutes up the road and the Hobart CBD is a picturesque 45 minute drive. Please contact me for further information or to arrange a meeting on-site.
