Situated in one of the Huon Valley's most picturesque and sought after locations, is this gorgeous 1920s Federation style character home. On just over an acre of well-established gardens and trees with a fully fenced pasture paddock, there is a lot to love about this property. Surrounded by, and overlooking lush rolling hills, you will feel like you own lots of pastureland, but without actually having to look after any of it. Beyond the lovely rural setting are views of the surrounding mountains including a glimpse of Mt Sleeping Beauty, simply beautiful. There are multiple shelters and garages and well set-up dog kennels. The owners currently operate as breeders of super cute Boston Terriers.
As you arrive at the home, you can't help but be charmed by the gorgeous, silver birch-lined driveway and classic front verandah complete with timber fretwork. The house yard is fenced off and access is through remote electric gates. Inside, the home consists of 3 bedrooms, all with built in robes and serviced by a good-sized family bathroom. The recently upgraded kitchen provides a stylish and functional space, which leads seamlessly through the living area and out onto the side deck, which overlooks the neighbouring pastures. This open plan space creates a wonderful area for family and friends to gather, with a wood fire to keep you snug and provide a lovely ambience. At the rear, there is a huge enclosed entertaining area, which would be ideal as a kids playroom, art studio, sewing room or games rumpus room.
Outside, the pretty gardens are made up of a mix of natives, ornamental trees and fruit trees. There is also plenty of lawn for the kids to play on, or to enjoy a picnic on a sunny afternoon. A large gravel area makes it practical for parking and maneuvering. The large front paddock is ideal for farm animals such as sheep or a cow or two. Otherwise this is great space to potentially develop further into a small orchard, berry patch and veggie gardens. The property has an abundance of outdoor infrastructure including a chicken palace, shelters, garage and workshop shelters. Self-sufficiency is further enhanced with a solar system helping to reduce your power bills.
Should the dog kennel set-up be of interest, the kennels are registered with the Huon Valley Council for dog breeding and complies in all respects with the regulatory authorities. The kennels consist of 10 bays 13m x 3.8m and come complete with a washroom. The owners have been breeding Boston Terriers for years now and have a fantastic reputation. More information is available should this part of the property be of further interest.
Located just 10 minutes drive from the Huon Valley hub of Huonville and approximately 30 minutes drive from the Hobart CBD makes this not just a great rural farmhouse, but also a commutable home from Hobart should that be required. The surrounding zoning protects the neighbouring land from further development, ensuring the wonderful privacy of this property is maintained for the foreseeable future.
