Positioned in a sunny and elevated pocket of Cygnet, 17 Norris Street offers a rare combination of space, privacy, views and proximity to the centre of town.
Set on approximately 1 hectare of predominantly level and gently sloping pasture, the property provides an unusually usable parcel of land for such a central Cygnet location. With a broad open area through the centre of the block, there is excellent scope to consider a future home in a position that takes advantage of the sun, outlook and surrounding space, subject to the necessary approvals.
One of the property's real strengths is its setting. From the land there are sweeping views across Cygnet township, with the main street and surrounding countryside forming part of the outlook, while in the distance Port Cygnet Bay can be seen with yachts dotted across the water. It gives the property a strong sense of elevation and openness without the steep access often associated with many of the hills surrounding the township.
The land itself is mostly clear pasture and offers plenty of room for gardens, animals, sheds or simply the space to enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle. An established character timber shed of approximately 7m x 6m is already in place, complete with a lean to, power and plumbing, providing useful storage and a great starting point for anyone looking to make use of the property straight away.
Being located towards the end of a quiet no through road adds to the sense of privacy, yet the centre of Cygnet remains within a moderate walk. Importantly, the route back into town avoids the busier highway environment and provides relatively easy access without the steep climb found in many of Cygnet's more elevated residential areas.
That proximity to town is a major part of what makes this property so appealing. Cygnet is known for its strong community, cafes, restaurants, schools, shops, local produce, arts and crafts and its popular yacht club, all of which are close at hand. Huonville is around 20 minutes away, while Hobart is approximately 50 minutes by car.
With Cygnet continuing to grow, the size and position of this land may also provide longer term opportunities for an owner to explore, subject to zoning, planning requirements and council approval. Its location close to the existing township gives it an added dimension beyond that of a typical rural lifestyle block.
For buyers wanting room to build, space around them and a genuine connection to the heart of Cygnet, this is a particularly hard combination to find.
Private, sunny and spacious, with broad township and water views, usable land and the convenience of being able to walk into town, 17 Norris Street is a distinctive parcel of land in one of the Huon Valley's most sought after townships.
Rates approx. $1,500 pa.
