Consisting of 7 acres (3.01ha), this impressive Huon Valley lifestyle property combines a modern country home with a wonderful sense of space, well fenced fertile pastures, and amazing views right up the Huon River, perfectly framed by the surrounding hills and distant Wellington Range.
Access is via a quiet no-through road, with an electric entrance gate opening into the fully fenced house yard. The driveway loops conveniently around and leads to a generous resort-style covered entry carport, where an impressive solid-timber front door sets the tone for what lies within.
Stepping inside, the first thing to capture your attention is the view.
Expansive picture windows stretch across the living areas, filling the home with natural light and beautifully framing the Huon River and mountain panorama. High ceilings enhance the feeling of space, while rich timber flooring brings warmth and character to the contemporary country interior.
Designed with comfort and efficiency in mind, the home is fully double glazed and well insulated, with its favourable northern aspect helping capture natural warmth and sunlight. A large rooftop solar system further assists in keeping household running costs down. A multi-zoned ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning system provides year-round climate control, whilst a slow-combustion wood fire within a feature brick fireplace in the main lounge adds both warmth and a lovely atmosphere during the cooler months.
The open-plan living area forms the heart of the home, consisting of the lounge at one end and the central dining space perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the outlook. The kitchen sits cleverly overlooking the living zone, allowing whoever is preparing meals to remain connected with family and guests. Stone bench tops and quality appliances combine practicality with a clean, contemporary finish.
From the living area, there is direct access onto the covered entertaining deck – an inviting extension of the home and a wonderful place to dine outdoors, entertain friends or simply sit back and watch the landscape change throughout the day.
Down the hallway, there is excellent built-in storage along the way to the bedrooms. The master bedroom has its own stylish ensuite and also benefits from direct access onto the covered deck, creating a lovely place to enjoy a morning coffee while taking in the surrounding countryside.
The remaining bedrooms both come with built-in robes and are serviced by the central family bathroom, providing comfortable accommodation for children, family or visiting guests.
Should you be keen on 4 bedrooms, previously approved extension plans are available for an entirely new master suite, offering an exciting opportunity to further enhance the home if desired.
Beyond the residence, the property provides genuine lifestyle versatility. The land is predominantly very gently undulating and has been thoughtfully divided into well-fenced pasture paddocks. Whether your plans include hobby farming or simply enjoying the space around you, the property provides plenty of options. Currently there are a few sheep who would love to stay on.
Two dams, supplied by a seasonal winter spring source, add both practical value and another attractive feature to the landscape, while also providing a natural habitat for local birdlife. A garage/workshop is conveniently positioned between the house and access to the paddocks. A lean-to off the garage provides great extra shelter.
There is ample room to further develop the property around the lifestyle that suits you – establish an orchard, expand the vegetable garden, keep chickens, create productive garden areas or simply enjoy having open pasture and space between you and the outside world.
Perfectly positioned between the historic riverside village of Franklin and the vibrant country township of Geeveston with Port Huon nearby offering a Hotel for local pub style meals, a marina and indoor heated pool and sports complex.
The property places you within one of southern Tasmania’s most appealing lifestyle regions. The Huon Valley is renowned for its fresh produce, orchards, farm gates, markets, waterways and strong sense of community, with local events and attractions providing plenty to discover throughout the year.
Huonville, the major service centre of the region, is approximately 15 minutes away, providing a Woolies supermarket, schools, medical facilities, cafés and everyday services, while Hobart’s CBD can be reached in well under an hour along a scenic route through the valley.
