Welcome to Greenslade, a tranquil and elegant 1900s farmhouse beautifully nestled on 2 hectares (5 acres) of breathtaking waterfront land overlooking the pristine D'Entrecasteaux Channel. Lovingly updated by its current owners, this property seamlessly blends timeless charm with tasteful modern enhancements.
Set amid picturesque beautifully landscaped gardens, the farmhouse boasts a charming pitched roof and wrap-around verandah adorned with stunning wisteria and rose climbers. Inside the home, original period features—polished timber floorboards, high ceilings and decorative archways—are complemented by a fresh, contemporary palette scheme through the home.
The homestead features three generously sized bedrooms, each radiating its own unique character. The master bedroom is a true retreat, offering soothing views via the french doors to the lush garden and the shimmering waterline beyond. This is complemented by a spacious dressing room and a beautiful light-filled private ensuite which boasts a generous layout complete with a sumptuous bath, creating the perfect space to unwind while soaking in the surrounding beauty.
The second bedroom features a custom-built desk positioned under the window, inviting views through to the vibrant front garden, making it an ideal space for work or relaxation. The third bedroom adds to the charm, with french doors that open to the wrap-around verandah, beautifully connecting the indoor space to the tranquil surroundings.
At the heart of the home lies a spacious living room, featuring a built-in wood fire, intricate ceiling rose and french doors that frame delightful garden views. Adjacent to this is the dining room, which seamlessly opens onto the expansive verandah, creating the perfect indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining. Imagine enjoying warm evenings with a glass of wine in hand, watching the boats glide across the waters of the Channel. The updated kitchen complements this inviting space with its generous bench and cabinet storage, induction stovetop, making it a functional yet elegant centrepiece of the home. Both the dining and kitchen areas offer picturesque views of the blooming gardens and sparkling water beyond.
Outside, the property unfolds into a picturesque wonderland of English-style gardens, bursting with vibrant perennials that provide year-round colour and charm. Meandering paths invite exploration, weaving through the lush lawns and the established orchard where mature apple, pear, plum, apricot trees and more, lead to a serene gazebo perfectly positioned to take in the breathtaking views of the Channel. At the heart of this enchanting landscape lies the large lily pond, a striking feature that sets the tone for the estate, with its flourishing water lilies creating a magnificent focal point.
The gardens offer countless places to pause and unwind, while trails wind through the bushland, leading to a peaceful creek line. Here, you can wander down to the waterfront beach, ideal for splashing in the shallows or simply soaking in the natural beauty. Even push the boat out and glide across the channel to Bruny Island for a quiet picnic.
Adding to the property's allure is a rustic studio, a creative sanctuary waiting for its new owners to make their mark. With its own private deck the studio offers the perfect spot to relax and admire the sweeping vistas.
Practicality meets charm with substantial outbuildings that includes a workshop, machinery shed, carport and ample storage rooms. Whether for simple relaxation or creativity, this property offers a lifestyle of endless possibilities, perfectly complementing the timeless elegance of the homestead.
