A very clever design using modern materials has created this stunning six bedroom home. It overlooks farmland, and enjoys almost a kilometre of North Esk River frontage.
The home has been positioned so as to absorb the uninterrupted rural views, north along the river flats and east towards Mount Barrow.
And all so close to Launceston city and airport.
Designed as a family home the ground floor provides two areas for dining, two living rooms, a large office and double bedroom and bathroom. There are a number of french doors’ which allow generous outside access.
An open sunlit entrance foyer also provides staircase access upstairs to five bedrooms and three bathrooms. Again, the use of large glass doors and windows dominate the theme of this home providing natural light and country views from every vantage point.
A galley kitchen enjoys a northern outlook and has convenient outside access via an enormous walk thru pantry. A cosy, casual eating area surrounded by glass, provides views of water through the garden trees. Polished concrete floors contain the luxury of electric floor heat.
There is town water and also irrigation water from the river this is all laid out to support the hundreds of specimen trees the owner has planted for the generations to come. Lucerne pastures provides lucrative income for sale of fodder after the irrigation and harvesting season.
Irrigation water rite from North Esk River via Roses Rivulet. Three phase power and pumps are installed.
The total area is subdivided into ten paddocks using modern electric fencing.
Lucerne pastures were established three and five years ago over approximately 17 acres of river flats.
