Offering the best of country living this property remains in the hands of the family that built the homestead over sixty years ago. Dominated by picturesque rolling country landscape the property offers a comfortable home and premium land with rich and fertile soil that was once used as hop fields and a market garden. Recently refurbished, the brick and tile home with attractive wraparound bull-nose verandah is situated on over a hectare of gently north-sloping land with boundary to the Lachlan River.
Built in 1956 the home offers the character of the fifties era and modern convenience. Enter the home via original double doors to the lounge room with two sets of double windows. Through to the spacious open dining and kitchen area. The sleek finishes of the kitchen and neutral hues are warmed by the rich patina of the timber cross beams on the ceiling and window frames. The hall leads to three good sized bedrooms, two with large built-in robes and bathroom. Off the kitchen is a separate laundry and second toilet. The north facing rear verandah is wide enough for alfresco dining and provides tranquil views over the land to the Lachlan River. There is a substantial double garage/ workshop. If you are yearning for the ideal lifestyle this rural sanctuary is ideal and offers enormous potential.
The property is located just 30 minutes from Hobart and 5 minutes from New Norfolk, the major town in the Derwent Valley. Classified as a Historic Town, New Norfolk is a thriving community and presents a combination of picturesque scenery, history and all services.
