This original Federation-style home has just been modernised to comply with all of today’s building regulations, yet maintaining original old world charm. Facing due north and set on a level and manageable 1984m2 block (half an acre), you will have plenty of sun and space. This delightful home has 2 good sized bedrooms downstairs along with the family bathroom. Upstairs is the parent’s retreat, a spacious master suite overlooking the neighbouring pastures through a lovely picture window. Many original features remaining include the high ceilings & skirting boards, classic doors, characterful sash windows and polished timber floors throughout.

In keeping with the rural surrounds, a handcrafted country timber kitchen with white porcelain trough-style sink complements the home. A large, central wood fire in the open plan living area easily heats the whole home due to the new insulation in the walls and ceiling as well as the clever north aspect. The open plan incorporates the living, kitchen and dining and seamlessly all blends with the outdoor entertaining via corner stacking sliding doors that open onto a covered deck.

The land is in these parts is very fertile, lending itself perfectly to creating veggie beds, fruit trees and a garden. Add some chickens and have fresh eggs every morning. The gated entrance is a real feature and completes the wonderful character from the front. This leads to a good sized shed, ideal as the garage, workshop and storage. Situated on a quiet country road, you are only 5-10 minutes away from the local township of Huonville which provides schools, supermarkets, doctors, cafes and gift shops, along with a variety of other small and large businesses. A picturesque 30 minutes drive makes it a commutable distance to and from Hobart’s CBD. This property really is the perfect balance of location and lifestyle.
