Situated just 7 minutes drive from the City of Devonport (home port for the Spirits of Tasmania), is this truly magnificent property. Set on just over 2 Ha (approx. 5 acres) this brick home has a "welcome home" feel which greets you as you drive up the hotmix sealed driveway to the large carport and garage area.
Walking through the archway into a well established and low maintenance back garden reveals the very well planned and practical undercover entertainment/barbecue area with the use of 2nd hand bricks as pavers adding to the rural enchantment of this area. Together with the bull nose verandah along the rear and sides of the structure the immediate yard area of the property lends itself to family living.
The double storey home has four bedrooms.
The master bedroom (with ensuite, large walk in robe & extra storage area) and well positioned parents retreat (currently used as a home office) are all situated at the top of the Blackwood & Radiata Pine staircase and enjoy the brilliance of the morning sun. With timber floors, exposed beams and raked ceilings in this area, the upper level of this home is perfect for some quiet time or could be ideally suited as space for the teenager needing a bit of extra room.
Downstairs accommodates three bedrooms, the recently refurbished master bathroom (with separate glass shower recess), separate toilet, laundry and ample linen and storage cupboards.
Slate floors welcome you into the open plan kitchen, dining and lounge room where the use of local timbers compliment the rural location of this home. The good size kitchen boasts Blackwood bench tops and breakfast bar. There is a dishwasher and double sink and the walk in pantry compliments the kitchen area which has views to the side yard and paddocks of the property.
Two steps down from the dining area takes us into the recently re-carpeted lounge room with large sun catching windows and a free standing barrel wood heater which, together with the ducted heating system to the rest of the house, more than adequately keeps the house warm during the cooler months. The lounge has a brick feature wall and makes use of local timbers in the walls and raked ceiling.
A slate area leads through a glass sliding door to another paved and grassed yard area.
The property itself boasts:
Large garage/workshop area with toilet and shower facilities;
Smaller outbuildings and sheds located conveniently around the paddocks;
More than ample water supply provided by roof run-off to underground tank and clean drinkable bore water (new pump on bore & tank);
Large hard stand area;
Well established (15 years) strain of eucalypts along northern boundary;
Established macrocarpa pines;
Plenty of privacy from the road frontage;
School bus service at lane entrance.
The property is located only minutes from the City of Devonport and the historic townships of Sheffield (Tasmania's "Town of Murals") and Latrobe ("The Platypus Capital of Australia"). An award-winning vineyard is only 4-minutes from the home and boasts some of the finest Tasmanian wines available.
The Internationally Accredited Lake Barrington Rowing Course is only minutes away and is open for family recreation purposes, boating, skiing, etc. daily. Cradle Mountain is only 35 minutes from the property and the grandeur of this area must be seen to be fully appreciated.
This property is truly unique and has endless possibilities for your "seachange".
