Overview

Classic Family Cottage

Consisting of just over 1.5 acres on the southern outskirts of Huonville, this classic country cottage gives you the chance to invest, renovate or have yourself a characterful first home. Surrounded by farmland and less than a two minute drive to Huonville's shops and services, this home is offering amazing potential. Invest, live in the home or renovate and bring her back to her former glory. Access is directly off the Huon Highway and as you drive up the tree lined driveway the house is well framed, and it is clear that this cute North East facing cottage holds decades of family memories. Stepping inside, it's apparent that the original charm from 1925 still makes for a special atmosphere, with original floorboards, picture rails, high ceilings and a wrap around veranda that has views all the way down to the Huon River and the surrounding mountain ranges. There are three large bedrooms, each with their own fireplace and plenty of natural light. An extension to the southern side of the home later in life provides a sunroom and extra bedroom, giving flexibility for a growing family or extra guests. The kitchen has been updated and still provides a functional space for day to day living, with a healthy amount of overhead cupboard storage. The bathroom has also been updated and offers a claw foot bath, a lovely nod to the character found throughout the rest of the home. A bit of tender love could bring this home back to its former glory. Outside, the surrounding yard is a mix of both flat and gently sloping land, and being fenced all the way around makes for an excellent spot for kids and pets to run around in safety. There is plenty of storage infrastructure with a healthy three bay shed (6m x 9.8m) on a concrete slab and an attached carport for undercover parking. The garden is parklike with scattered mature trees and various hedges dotted through the backyard. Huonville itself is the thriving heart of the Huon Valley, known for its natural surrounds, farm gate produce and strong community feel. Spend your weekends exploring nearby wineries, kayaking on the Huon River, or heading further south toward Cygnet, Franklin or the Hartz Mountains for scenic hikes and outdoor adventures. Hobart is just a 35 minute drive away, making commuting easy while still allowing you to enjoy the relaxed pace of life the Huon Valley is known for. Move in and enjoy your new home or as an investment, there are currently long term tenants already in place. Don't hesitate contact me today for more information or to arrange an inspection.
