Positioned up a quaint country lane, just 5 minutes from the centre of the main hub of the Huon Valley makes this property very appealing, add the valley views and the idyllic mix of pastures and bush with 38 acres (15.4ha) to play with and a recently built home, this is one of those properties not to miss.
Located just on the outskirts of Ranelagh, you are around 35-40 minutes from the Hobart CBD and yet in complete country bliss. The views from the house are of green pastural valleys with tree covered hills. It is as serene as it can be. Perched right up in the middle of the 38 acres, the house is accessed by a winding driveway that takes you through a patch of tall gums. The house sits in a lovely position overlooking the bush as well as the whole valley beyond. If you are seeking privacy, then this is it.
A full length verandah at the rear provides a level access into the house with plenty of cover. The front also has a full length verandah, but finds itself high off the ground adding to the feeling of being up high in the hills. Inside, there is a large open plan living consisting of the kitchen, dining and lounge. A wood fire provides warmth in the cooler months and the reverse cycle air-conditioner with keep you comfortable all year round. A heat pump hotter system is said to reduce your water heating costs down by around 70%.
At one end of the house is the master bedroom with own views over the valley and complete with a walk in robe and ensuite. At the other end is the family bathroom with a separate shower and deep soak bath, servicing the 2 spare bedrooms, which both have built-in-robes. Constructed of Colorbond, this is a very low maintenance home, allowing you to spend the time developing the property to how you'd like it.
Up behind the house is a huge flat area ready for you to develop as you wish. Currently there is an old shack that could be made into something more permanent with work and 2 containers with a roof between them for storage. A veggie tunnel is already there in the back corner with loads of room to put more in. This property has huge scope to allow you to be self-sufficient.
Beyond the flat area, there is a gate that leads straight into the best of the land. With some fencing upgrades, the pastures on this half of the property are good to go for animals. Have you always wanted a horse or some cows or a few sheep? On the other side of the house area, there is just as much more pastures, but a little rougher and a bit more slope. Over here there is a second access from the road up to a small flat spot, ideal if you wanted to put in some separate accommodation (stca).
Although mostly pastures, there are patches of bush which make the property very pretty as well as providing you with plenty of firewood. This is an ideal property for self sufficient living.
