Rich in character and thoughtfully expanded over time, this unique lifestyle property blends the charm of an original cottage with the comfort and flexibility of a much larger family home. Original weatherboard features and beautiful Tasmanian Oak floorboards remain a defining feature of the lower level, while subsequent additions have created a spacious and versatile floor plan that caters to modern family living.
The grounds have been lovingly established over many years and are a true highlight of the property. Mature fruit trees, productive vegetable gardens, ornamental plantings and established shade trees create a private and picturesque environment that changes beautifully with the seasons. During spring and summer, the gardens take on a park-like quality, with deciduous trees providing both shade and colour, while a seasonal creek meanders through the lower section of the property, enhancing the natural landscape.
A substantial covered entertaining deck extends from the main living area and provides an exceptional outdoor space for year-round enjoyment. Bathed in natural sunlight from its north-western aspect, it serves as an additional living area, perfect for entertaining, relaxing with family, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
Inside, the home retains a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with the original character of the cottage complemented by functional family living spaces. Two bedrooms are positioned on the lower level, and timber flooring adds warmth and personality throughout. The central living and dining areas are generous in size and flow effortlessly to the outdoor entertaining space, while a built-in study nook provides a practical work-from-home option.
The kitchen forms part of a later extension and features double-glazed windows, quality appliances and great bench space and storage. A well-appointed laundry, family bathroom and separate toilet complete the lower level, along with a practical mudroom entry designed for country living.
Upstairs, the home transforms into a private retreat with a substantial living area that could easily function as a parents' retreat, home office or additional lounge, and a generous bedroom, walk-in robe, additional dressing or storage nook, and second bathroom. The scale of this level provides flexibility for future adaptation, including the potential for an additional bedroom, subject to any necessary approvals.
Further features include multiple reverse-cycle heating and cooling systems, a highly efficient Sanden heat pump hot water system, secure electric gate access and ample off-street parking further enhance everyday convenience.
The rear of the property offers a wonderful balance of practicality and lifestyle appeal, featuring raised vegetable beds, a productive orchard with a variety of apple, pear and quince trees, a grove of mature birch trees, and a private firepit area tucked away amongst established hedging. The grounds provide ample space for gardening enthusiasts, hobby farmers, children and pets alike.
A large workshop shed is well equipped with power and has been utilised primarily as a workspace rather than vehicle accommodation. Additional garden infrastructure includes storage areas, potting facilities and chook runs, creating an ideal setup for those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle. The property is connected to town water and serviced by a septic system.
Set on a gently sloping parcel of land in a highly convenient semi-rural location, the property enjoys easy access to Mountain River Road, with Huonville, Kingston and Hobart CBD all within comfortable commuting distance.
This property presents an opportunity to embrace a relaxed country lifestyle, enjoy established gardens and productive land, and create lasting memories in a setting that is both peaceful and remarkably convenient. Please call or email us today for further information or to arrange an inspection.
