High ceilings, Sandstone fireplaces, timber floors burnished to a dark hue and many more wonderful features make this 1880s home an absolute treasure. There is an iconic country kitchen including a Slow Combustion Range set into the fireplace; a bench top made from a single stab of timber; a huge walk-in pantry/storeroom; and the modern convenience of a gas stove.
In the main part of the house, there are 3 double bedrooms plus a single bedroom/study; a large living room; a cosy sitting room; a nicely renovated bathroom with a claw-foot bath; and a long sunroom. Along the front of the house is a wide veranda which is a delightful spot to sit and look out over the gardens to the beautiful countryside beyond.
There is also a conjoined flat with a king-sized bedroom; cosy lounge with a near-new heat pump; a galley kitchen and a bathroom designed for aged or disabled occupants. Other renovations include: new wiring, including safety switches; and a new septic system.
Surrounded by beautiful gardens with a large pond as a feature as well as espaliered apple trees and a huge, netted vegetable garden, the house sits on approx. 1857m2 of land. There is a deep bore with good quality water ensuring plenty of irrigation to maintain the gardens. Next to the house is a Colorbond, double garage.
This property is approx. 20 minute drive to Oatlands which has a Medical Centre, District School (Kinder to year 10), shops, cafes and much more; a 5 minute drive to the Community Club at Tunnack ; around 50 minute drive to the large shopping centres of Sorell; and under an hour to Hobart.
