Overview

Delightful Hobby Farm

If you've been on the hunt for affordable small acreage in the Huon Valley, this fantastic cottage may be just what you're after. Perched along a quiet road, this cute 1960's cottage has been upgraded over time, but still oozes country charm. The home sits on just over 2 acres of pasture and bush with a creek line running through the property. Inside, the home features 3 good sized bedrooms; the main bedroom is spacious, and features a large built-in robe. In addition, there is also a central study which would make a great home office or simply a kids play area. The family bathroom has been recently upgraded and now features a large walk-in, frameless glass shower. A large, light filled living room sits at the back of the home and is bathed in light from the large picture windows which overlook the land. The kitchen is finished in a lovely country aesthetic, and the French doos opening onto the large deck creates wonderful indoor/outdoor flow for entertaining. Outside, the land extends up behind the house and is an ideal size for those wanting fruit trees, veggie patches and some smaller farm animals. Low maintenance tiered gardens extend off the large deck and a shed and carport off the side of the property is a useful space for storing all your gardening equipment. There is also an added bonus of two Titles at this property, so some potential for future development, if that is a consideration. Castle Forbes Bay is a short distance from the riverside township of Franklin, and around 10-12 minutes drive from the Huon Valley Hub of Huonville. We look forward to seeing you at one of our open homes! NB: This delightful country home is tenanted until June 2022.
