If your idea of life in the country means peace and quiet, chooks scratching about in the garden, and fields of lush pasture laid out before you, but not weekends spent mowing acre after acre, or repairing miles of fencing…then this characterful weatherboard cottage in the pastoral locale of Holwell, sitting cosily on a 3638m2, almost 1 acre allotment, and only 7 minutes from the thriving Beaconsfield shopping precinct, could be your answer!
This charming lifestyle property offers three king-sized bedrooms, spacious open-plan living, options for outdoor entertaining, and an established and bountiful orchard. High-ceilings and polished boards feature in the living room and country-style eat-in kitchen, and there enough original features still intact to delight aspiring renovators, such as a cast-iron IXL wood-fired range in the kitchen fireplace that is in excellent condition. An as-new “Ultimate” brand wood fire in the living area provides warmth and ambience during the Tasmanian winter, or venture outside in the warmer months and relax on the wide verandah with a cool drink and indulge in the very best of summertime in the countryside. There is plenty of pantry storage in the kitchen, gas cooking, and ample room for gatherings of family and friends. From here, there is seamless access to a sunny verandah, and nearby sheltered entertaining area.
The three out-sized bedrooms boast neat paint and carpet, and delightful pastoral views. A mezzanine in one of the bedrooms is a quirky feature and provides extra floor space for storage, study or place to sleep. These rooms are serviced by a bathroom with two showers (one over a bathtub) and vanity with plenty of storage.
Outside, there is a carport and attached wood shed, garden shed and aviary. An established orchard provides an abundance of apples, pears, cherries, hazelnuts, figs and peaches. Hope you have been saving your jam jars!
