Just on the outer edge of the charming township of Dover, this classic 1940s weatherboard home sits on a generous, flat parcel of approximately 2,519m². Positioned near the tranquil Dover Rivulet and surrounded by established greenery, the home offers a refreshing space and invites a classic Huon Valley lifestyle. With thoughtful updates completed in recent years, including a stylish new kitchen and bathroom, this home presents as a comfortable and inviting residence while still offering scope for future personalisation.
Inside, the home retains its original character while benefiting from modern upgrades that enhance everyday living, with original features such as Tasmanian oak floorboards, classic dado walls and ceiling roses adding warmth and telling of a bygone era. The flexible floor plan allows for a variety of configurations, currently offering three bedroom spaces and multiple living or dining zones, easily adaptable to suit families, those working from home, or buyers seeking room to spread out. The updated kitchen is both functional and stylish, providing ample storage and workspace while sitting comfortably within the heart of the home. The bathroom has also been tastefully modernized, adding a fresh and contemporary feel. Two fireplaces provide warmth and ambience through the cooler months, creating cosy living spaces to retreat to at the end of the day. The home’s layout invites you to make it your own, whether that be through entertaining, family living, or quiet relaxation.
Outdoors, the property offers excellent lifestyle appeal with an abundance of usable space and practical infrastructure. A fenced rear yard provides a safe area for children to play, while the north-facing, split-level deck is the perfect spot to soak up sunshine throughout the day. A large apple barn tells the story of the area’s orchard history from years gone by and, at approximately 200m², offers exceptional versatility. Ideal for vehicle storage, machinery, hobbies or projects, the space is equipped with three-phase power. Attached to the workshop is a garage along with additional storage areas, providing practical solutions for everyday needs. A woodshed sits conveniently close to the home, ensuring firewood is always within easy reach, while the nearby laundry offers straightforward access to the clothesline. The flat block provides ample opportunity to further enhance the outdoor spaces, whether through veggie gardens, established landscaping, or keeping a few chickens.
