Set on approximately 4000m² of fully fenced and beautifully landscaped grounds, the property enjoys a breathtaking outlook over rolling green pastures, with a tranquil blue gum forest as its backdrop all just moments from the vibrant Margate township.
Inside, warmth and craftsmanship define every space. Polished Tasmanian oak floorboards, bespoke joinery, and natural timber cladding create a calm, inviting atmosphere throughout. The spacious open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area flows seamlessly onto a generous entertaining deck, perfectly positioned to capture the afternoon sun and overlook the abundant gardens.
The main suite is a true sanctuary, clad in Tasmanian oak to create a private and serene retreat. It features a huge walk-in robe and a stunning ensuite complete with Velux skylights, floor-to-ceiling tiles, a walk-in shower with rainwater showerhead, and underfloor heating.

A newly added mudroom enhances functionality, providing the perfect space for country living.
The gardens have been masterfully designed to combine beauty, abundance, and sustainability. There's an established orchard, enclosed vegetable garden and chicken run.
