This low-maintenance home has recently been upgraded to include double glazing and freshly painted inside and out. The solid mud brick construction creates an excellent thermal mass, further adding to the energy efficiency, along with the solar panel array. This is country living without the high costs. Sitting on a just over 2 acres (8862m2), there is a perfect combination of gardens with food production enclosures, a large shed, an amazing water feature and a private forest to enjoy.
Positioned down around the peninsula out from the vibrant township of Cygnet, this location, within popular Lymington is just 200m from the shoreline of the Huon River Estuary. This is a great spot to pop a small boat in or your kayaks for a paddle in the evening light. Cygnet Coast Rd is a peaceful scenic route that follows the coast. You are more likely to pass someone walking their dog than a car here. Next door is a family owned and operated Blueberry Farm known as Tru-Blu and have been around for over 40 years now.
Stepping inside the house, there are 2 separate living areas at either end of the home. One is the main lounge with a free-standing slow-combustion wood fire and big glass sliding doors to a small sundeck. At the other end, the family room is also the dining her there is another built-in slow combustion wood fire, both keeping the home snug in the cooler months and providing a lovely atmosphere. Central in the home is the kitchen. There is a clever servery through to the family room, connecting the kitchen with the dining area.
The rear of the home is made up of a possible 4 bedrooms and the central family bathroom, complete with a separate shower and bath. Three bedrooms come with walk-in-robes, the master suite has a double robe and is the most spacious room. A second toilet is located off the laundry, which also provides access out the back to the covered entertaining deck. This is a great spot overlooking the back garden, dam and forest.
As you arrive at the property, a clever loop driveway creates a dual access in and out of the property and easy access to the large shed. The shed provides a double garage with a lined studio at one end, ideal for the workshop, art room, or even the home office. A small lean-to off the side is handy as is the larger covered area around the back.
Be self sufficient with your own food production. There is a poly Tunney, and a huge veggie enclosure. Another smaller enclosure will provide you with more Blueberries. The real feature is the dam that feels like you have a small lake complete with an island, right there in your backyard. A track leads past this up into your own forest. There is enough firewood here to keep you going for many years.
Supplies are available in Cygnet only 10 minutes by car, along with all your basic services such as doctors and schools. There are some great shops and cafes to enjoy. The main hub of the Huon Valley is at Huonville within 30 minutes.
