Imagine 2.246 hectares of tranquil rural setting, divided into 4 paddocks; well grassed, ideal for horses, sheep, or goats. Then there's the spring fed dam which provides year-round water and not to mention the 500 productive well aged blueberry bushes which grow the most divine fruit. The property used to be known as Red's Berry Farm and once produced a variety of the most delicious fruit, strawberries, cherries, pears and the still existing amazing blueberries. Although other fruit has since been removed the conditions of mineral rich soil and underground springs are still available to you as well as plenty of space for their reintroduction if that is an interest. Access to year-round crystal-clear drinkable bore water and a huge six to eight car garage/shed which can take all the equipment and tools will make it even easier.
The farmhouse, which was built in 1979, boasts two huge living areas and 6 bedrooms ( two with ensuite bathrooms) and has a floorplan that will accommodate a myriad of uses. It is quirky, homely and unpretentious.
Located in popular Allens Rivulet, just 10 minutes from both Kingston and Margate shopping and services, local schools nearby, with buses stopping at the end of the drive for local and city schools, and only 20 minutes to central Hobart. You can enjoy the best of both worlds, living the country dream but so close to everything the city has to offer. This is one of Southern Tasmania's most popular rural residential settings surrounded by trees, providing home to eagles, white goshawks and kookaburras. With fresh mountain air and crystal-clear water and a silence only broken by the sound of horses, sheep, cows and ducks: why would you want to live anywhere else?
Roll up your sleeves. With a bit of spit and polish the opportunities here are boundless. Come see the possibilities that this property boasts. I can assure you that you won't be wasting your time!
