Situated on around 77 acres of prime agricultural land, it offers any prospective purchaser an endless array of possibilities for further business growth, tourism and farming - as well as a home for owner-operators. The property showcases breathtaking 360 degree river and valley views, taking in the Huon River, the Hartz View Mountains and surrounds.
