Nestled in the natural beauty and peace and quiet of the Glenfern Valley this 100 acre property could be your piece of heaven in the bush. Located 10 minutes from the bustling town of New Norfolk, and around 50 minutes from Hobart this could be your perfect retreat for weekends, or a permanent residence within commuting distance.

The property consists of beautiful trees perfect for thinning for firewood and many tall straight specimens perfect for milling into valuable timbers for use on building a home (STCA) or for sale. Many dozens of tonnes of timber is already on the ground waiting to be turned into logs, timber sleepers, and firewood. The property also possesses its own gravel pit for driveway repairs and could be extended to sell gravel for profit.

A small well planned orchard of mostly heritage fruit varieties has been planted into a rich soil/compost mix to get a good start, and they have been espaliered for increased fruit production and ease of maintenance. The acre around the fruit tree rows has been fully fenced to allow for expansion and putting in additional rows of fruit trees and garden beds.

A 6m x 11m colourbond shed has been built, insulated, lined, and wired ready for solar power. The shed collects more than enough water in the new poly water tank beside it, and the shed itself includes some building, fencing, and agricultural materials/tools, and some furniture that can all be yours with the property, making it easy for you to get going in this rural landscape. An existing pole house style partially walled shed sits behind the colourbond one, and is perfect to convert into firewood storage or into a chicken coup or animal shelter.

The 4 acres of useful space around the shed have been cleared across a flat saddle of land with a North facing aspect that takes in sweeping views of the Glenfern Valley below and even the lowest of winter sun. The clearing is sheltered from southerly weather and can often be thoroughly beautiful and sunny even though the valley and New Norfolk below can be blanketed in cold fog and cloud. The land is perfect for fruit trees and berries, and vegetables in raised garden beds, and average rainfall supports all current trees and berries without irrigation, and could easily provide enough clean pure rainwater for an individual, a couple, or a family with animals.

You can also receive the results of a soil test done on the clearing in preparation for building a larger home, engineering drawings and details for the 6m x 11m colourbond shed and photos documenting the construction of the sheds concrete slab, and the shed itself. The property is also in 2 titles making resizing and selling off a portion of the property easier if you wish, although the privacy and distance from near neighbours are great features of this land.

This is hidden gem of land with superb features and potential for the right buyers. Its gorgeous sunny northerly aspect, superlative valley views, abundant clean rainwater, privacy, low price, and proximity to New Norfolk and Hobart will make you love it. It is a little piece of heaven on a hill.
