Overview

Practical Self-sufficient Living

Positioned right on the edge of the quaint country town of Geeveston, this 1211m2 property has all you need for a self-sufficient lifestyle. Clever use of the land places the home in one zone, a shed and carport in the middle zone and a fully enclosed fruit tree and veggie bed garden complete with chicken coop creating another zone. The home offers an open plan living, dining and kitchen, with 4 bedrooms and a modernised user-friendly wet-room style central bathroom. As you enter the home, the warmth of the timber features welcome you to come in. The kitchen and dining are spacious with a practical and social layout. Overlooked by the large lounge setting, there is a central wood fire providing both warmth and a snug atmosphere. Backed up with a reverse cycle air-conditioner, you will be comfortable all year round. There are nice views of the surrounding hills and a native forest patch across the road. Well fenced keeping the family pets and kids safe, there is a myriad of flower beds that will create fabulous colour changes throughout the changing seasons. Located on a convenient corner lot, the 1211m2 makes this property potentially sub dividable (stca). Otherwise, it is an ideal as it is for growing your own food. This half of the property is dedicated to fruit trees of all sorts, veggie beds, a poly tunnel and a hot house for your tomatoes and capsicums. Produce beds are ready to go, plant out your garlic or make it a spud patch for some income. A fantastic chicken coop is all set-up for breeding and there is water available throughout the garden from a dedicated water tank. To continue with the self-sufficiency, there is a solar array on the roof, providing a great cost saving to the power bills. Between the food garden and the home, a cleverly placed carport with easy access through to the shed. The shed provides super practical covered workspace for the workshop and storage or can be used as the garage. The town centre is a short stroll down the road offering a choice of eateries, from an Old Bank setting to a Pickle and Wine Bar. There is a pharmacy, IGA supermarket and great butcher, not to mention some of the best sushi you are likely to try. Other services include schools, doctors, hardware and a fantastic park with playground and a rivulet that passes through complete with resident platypus. The main hub of the Huon Valley is at Huonville, 15 minutes away and a 50 minute drive to Hobart. Please contact us for more information or to arrange a private viewing.
