There is so much to fall in love with here... Set on 7 acres (3.009 ha) in Tasmania’s picturesque Huon Valley, this exceptional lifestyle property pairs breathtaking water vistas with a beautiful modern country home and lush fertile pastures. Elevated on the upper reaches of the block, the residence enjoys uninterrupted, panoramic views over gently rolling pastures, the Huon River, the surrounding hills and the Wellington Range beyond.
Access to the property is via a quiet no-through road, then through an electric gate providing easy access into the fully fenced house yard. The driveway loops around, leading you to a resort-style covered entry to the home. An impressive solid-timber front door invites you to come in and explore. As you step inside, the home is bathed in natural light thanks to the expansive picture windows that instantly draw you across the room to the beautifully framed river and mountain panorama. High ceilings, and the gorgeous timber floors create a wonderful sense of space and warmth.
Fully double glazed, excellent insulation and with the northern aspect, this is a very energy-efficient home, further enhanced with the rooftop solar set-up to help keep running costs low. For year-round comfort there is a multi-zoned ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning system as well as a slow-combustion wood fire in the main lounge providing a lovely atmosphere.
Down the hallway leads you past loads of storage through to the 3 bedrooms, all with built-in robes. The master suite includes a stylish ensuite and direct access to the covered entertaining deck, perfect for quiet morning coffees or taking in the spectacular sunrises and sunsets. The other bedrooms are serviced by a central bathroom for the family or visiting guests. Past extension plan approvals are available for a whole new Master Suite should that be of interest.
At the heart of the open-plan living is the dining table, taking full advantage of the views. The kitchen is cleverly inset overlooking the main living, and features stone bench-tops and quality appliances. The layout encourages both entertaining and everyday family living, with direct access to a covered deck where you can watch the changing colours of the river and surrounding hill throughout the changing seasons and even time of day.
The land consists of mostly level to lightly undulating pastures, thoughtfully laid out into well-fenced paddocks that are ideal for hobby farming, horses or a few head of sheep. Two dams, fed by a winter spring source, provide a natural haven for birdlife as well as practical water security for the property.
Situated between the historic riverside village of Franklin and the vibrant country township of Geeveston, this property offers a lifestyle rich area, with a strong community spirit, fresh local produce and year-round events to enjoy. The main hub is at Huonville, a convenient 15-minute drive, while Hobart’s CBD can be reached in under an hour via a very scenic route.
Whether you’re seeking a peaceful family retreat, space to have fruit trees, veggie beds and chickens or simply a place to immerse yourself in Tasmania’s natural beauty, this beautiful property delivers on every level.
