Close to the historic village of Richmond and just 40 minutes from central Hobart, "White Kangaroo Valley" is a beautiful rural property dissected by the White Kangaroo Rivulet.
Your privacy and seclusion is assured once you drive onto "White Kangaroo Valley". It can be accessed either by bush track courtesy of its frontage onto Brown Mountain Road or via White Kangaroo Road and is an easy commute to the city.
The circa 2000 sandstone block Australian-Colonial style homestead is one of the finest examples of country living available, with every room finished with tasteful, quality fittings. There are beautiful polished timber floors and a central wood fire in the formal lounge and formal dining area. There are classic terracotta tiles and European appliances in the large country kitchen and living area. The grand master bedroom is complete with an atrium windowed spa ensuite in a prime, private position in the house. The other 5 bedrooms are all doubles and are serviced by 3 bathrooms. French doors from the kitchen open to a sunny, paved courtyard at the rear and from the front and the north, doors open on to a magnificent wide verandah to relax and entertain on or simply to view and appreciate this beautiful natural property.
The 97 hectare farm has approximately 35 hectares of cleared open land and of that about 20 hectares is excellent arable country. On the rich river flats along the White Kangaroo Rivulet that dissects the property there is a 4,000 tree cherry orchard. The balance is native bush with plenty of fire wood that provides some rough grazing. Included in the sale is a 36 megalitre water right and a diesel powered extraction pump to fill the 20 megalitre dam above the orchard. With the irrigation infrastructure that is already in place this property would also make a sizeable vineyard, or suit any food based primary production. Guest accommodation huts along the rivulet would be a sensational addition to the property. All suggestions (STCA).
For those looking for a magnificent home on a beautiful rural property with river frontage there are few better examples than this.
