Have you been dreaming of a home and farm like those found only in Country Style magazine? This could be the new home of your dreams. Situated overlooking Roberts Bay on the Huon River Estuary, you would be hard pressed to find a more peaceful outlook for your morning coffee or afternoon wine.
The character filled home has been extensively renovated over the past few years and now includes a high-end kitchen fit out with Siemens appliances including a double oven (steam and microwave as well as normal convection) with an automatic cleaning function, semi-integrated dishwasher and an induction cooktop. The huge walkthrough pantry contains a butlers sink and the whole kitchen opens out through dual French doors onto a north facing deck for sunny mornings with water views.
The entire home from top to bottom has been upgraded. With the sumptuous bathroom now containing a large freestanding soaking tub, a separate waterfall shower and a heated towel rail to add to the comfort levels. The hotwater for the house is provided via a super efficient Steibel Eltron Heat Pump unit, said to save you up to 70% on running costs.
All rooms of the home, (only excluding the laundry), enjoy water views. The renovations have been sympathetic to the style and age of the home. Leaving intact character features such as fireplaces, pressed tin ceilings, and timber floors. But adding modern creature comforts such as insulation, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, two new wood heaters and LED down lighting throughout.
The impressive features of the property don't end with the home, as it's located on almost 50 acres of prime pasture. There are 3 spring fed dams that resemble lakes, which have irrigation connected to gravity feed stock troughs and taps throughout the farm and grounds.
The current owners have been running 20 head of cattle and have still been able to cut approximately 95 round bales of hay, 130 small squares of hay and 40 round bales of silage every year.
There are multiple shed and workshop spaces ideal for running the farm, great for storage, or for other future potential uses, let your imagination run wild. There is 3 phase power already connected, should you want to try your hand at woodworking or welding equipment for farm maintenance projects.
Then there is also the large timber barn which is very impressive. It is massive and packed with past history including some of the original timber shingle roof under the iron. A wall displays some of the old apple packing labels, no doubt the property was once an apple orchard years ago. There are large sliding barn doors and an extra high roller door to allow tall machinery in.
Separate to the home at the opposite corner of the property, there is the bonus of a studio. This was an original pickers hut and is now ideal for visiting friends and family. Also overlooking the water and has its own entrance.
We have not had a home and farm of this caliber for quite sometime and it is located within a sought after location. Cygnet Coast Rd is a very quiet river's edge drive that is used more by people walking their dogs than cars. If this is the type of home you've been waiting for, now is the time to give us a call, send us an email or come to one of our Virtual Open Homes on Facebook. Have a look at the video, and there is a 3d full virtual walkthrough the home. Otherwise if you can, we would love to show you around in person.
