Peaceful rural outlooks across the Tamar Valley, beautifully established gardens and an exceptional collection of native Tasmanian timbers give this individually crafted Legana home its own character. Set privately on an internal allotment of 1.365 hectares (approximately 3.37 acres), the property combines generous family living with the peaceful surroundings of mature trees, manicured lawns and natural bushland. Built in 1990 and substantially extended in 2000, it offers space to gather, quiet corners to retreat to and craftsmanship that rewards a closer look.
Inside, substantial Oregon beams, timber-lined ceilings and handmade celery top pine window frames create warmth and texture throughout. Solid Huon pine benchtops feature in the kitchen and both main bathrooms with Myrtle cabinetry, King Billy pine cupboards and Tasmanian Oak internal doors adding to the remarkable timber selection. Solid brass door hardware and light switches, leadlight shades and a wide timber staircase further complement the home's individual style.
The country kitchen provides generous preparation space with a five-burner cooktop, double sink, walk-in pantry and an island bench with a granite insert. The adjoining dining area is glazed on three sides, drawing the garden into everyday life. A spacious lounge with a bay window and wood heater provides a comfortable gathering place while a separate family room offers flexibility for entertaining, hobbies or working from home.
Upstairs, a generous sunroom and family living area features high pitched ceilings, exposed beams and extensive glazing framing the surrounding greenery and river views. Three bedrooms occupy this part of the home with balcony access from one bedroom and a loft above providing another useful space for a study, playroom or creative retreat.
Positioned in its own private wing, the main bedroom is a spacious sanctuary with a substantial walk-in wardrobe, balcony and beautiful Tamar River outlook. Its generous ensuite features a restored original clawfoot bath, separate shower and Huon pine vanity. The second main bathroom offers a shower over the bath and excellent storage beneath its distinctive pitched ceiling.
Outside, the established grounds provide a setting that has taken decades to create. With the hard work already done, formed garden beds and sweeping lawns make ongoing upkeep straightforward, leaving more time to enjoy the serenity. Mature European trees sit alongside an orchard of more than 30 fruit and nut trees with berries adding to the seasonal harvest. A paved entertaining area provides a sheltered place to relax while the 80 sqm garage/workshop, double carport, garden equipment shed and large turning circle offer practical space for vehicles, projects and storage.
