Situated on almost 24 acres of useable, gently sloping land is this 1920s home that has been tightly held by the same family for over 60 years. The original cottage has seen an extension over that time to become a comfortable, more modern family abode yet still retains the stunning, character features of the era. The lovely, pressed metal ceilings are almost whimsical in nature as the pattern changes with each room in the original part of the home. Even the patterned ceiling in the wide, timber-lined, central hallway with its pretty, round, floral shapes have one wondering at the creative artistry that motivated such a detailed display. Timber plays a big part in enhancing the warmth and appeal throughout, with exposed, natural timber flooring, wall linings and a feature ceiling in one of the extended rooms. The open plan, native Tasmanian Blackwood kitchen provides an inviting place to gather for casual meals at the breakfast bar or just a nice space to catch up at the end of the day whilst preparing dinner adjacent to the wood fire. A timber deck wraps around three sides of the home boasting an expansive, all day sun, entertaining area with a northern aspect. This also flows onto a paved courtyard meaning there's heaps of room for family functions. The bathroom features an enclosed, exterior atrium which, combined with the corner spa, allows an indoor/outdoor experience for the best in relaxation.
Outside there is extensive, well-established infrastructure in the form of sheds, carports, fencing and dams but, best of all, is the ultimate man-cave that is currently used for band practise with boys. Middleton itself is a quaint, waterside community only 40 minutes from Hobart in the D'Entrecasteaux Channel region of Southern Tasmania, known for its stunning scenery, the world class boating waters and the Middleton Country Fair. Schooling is just up the road at the local Woodbridge School, which includes both primary and high school options.
