Secluded and private, this 40.47-hectare, (100 acre approximately) property with a solid, eclectic cottage, is right out of the pages of a storybook classic.
Approximately 60 acres are under a conservation covenant, so will remain untouched and unspoilt for future generations, with the remaining 40 acre 'living zone' being a mix of towering eucalypts, blackwood's and native grassland, an amazing space for a retreat or the purchaser who wants a nice quite country hideaway.
A traditional all timber settlers' cottage with an iron roof is the property's key focal point. Buried deep within the property boundary on a north easterly facing ridge, this quaint country cottage oozes charm and character and will help a new owner rediscover the true value of peace and solitude.
The home presents 3 bedrooms, two down and a loft above. The bathroom is cute with a dash of quirkiness, and the kitchen is reminiscent of a traditional farmhouse kitchen and diner combined, and even offers a classic slow combustion wood fired cooker. A front and back veranda, exterior wood room, and a couple of internal storage lofts keep the home functional. Cottage standouts include beautiful timber floors, freestanding wood fire, and solid round 'bush post' supports in the living area.
The outside infrastructure is impressive. A big all steel farm shed with concrete floor and a rear extension with timber floor give a home to vehicles, tools and equipment. A workshop that is clad in field stone, is a great little building with a thousand uses.
The property is serviced with mains power electricity, on site waste is dealt with a septic tank, and house water is harvested from the shed's roof, stored in a quality tank, and delivered with a pressure pump. A large property dam gives exterior watering options and is situated in a seasonal water course that runs through the property.
This wonderful offering is located almost at the end of a quiet no-through country road and backs onto one of the region's largest bush land reserves that would take a lifetime to explore. A new purchaser will also be able to share the environment with wedgetails eagles, wallabies, wombats, devils, quolls, bandicoots and a plethora of birdlife.
While providing solitude and tranquility, the property is only a 15 minute drive to Deloraine, the gateway to Cradle Mountain and the Great Western Tiers and equidistant both Launceston and Devonport.
Property enquiries, in the first instance are to the selling agent, with inspections strictly by appointment only.
