Rowangreen – exceptional Fern Tree residence amidst heritage-listed gardens Positioned within the foothills of iconic kunanyi/Mount Wellington, immersed in the natural beauty of Tasmanian flora and birdlife, sits an exceptional family home, set upon two acres, offering expansive luxury in the tightly held locale of Fern Tree. Rowangreen, constructed circa 1916, is one of the original residences of the area. Period features, including traditional fireplaces, tessellated tiling, and exposed brick and stone, are now harmoniously housed with a respectful, contemporary rejuvenation for modern lifestyles. Beginning on the entrance level, numerous family living spaces each enjoy tranquil outlooks of the garden and bushland surrounds, while exuding comfort and warmth, with a combination of wood and hydronic heating for complete comfort. Open-plan lounge and dining lead to a sunny entertaining deck, allowing a natural indoor-outdoor flow. Further along, two further additional living areas invite complete relaxation. A gourmet kitchen takes pride of place on the ground floor, designed to complement the home’s natural setting through painted timber cabinetry, and timber and granite countertops. Premium appliances are inclusive, with an integrated dishwasher and refrigerator, and a Smeg oven with gas stovetop. Sumptuous accommodation is comprised of four generous bedrooms. Three, each inclusive of built-in storage and hydronic heating, occupy the upper-floor, including the master with a stylish en-suite with sleek black tiling. The fourth bedroom enjoys a private position on the lower-level, with direct access to a garden courtyard. The home is well-serviced, with an elegant main bathroom upstairs, complete with an over-bath shower, vanity, and a toilet. The laundry is also on this level, within close proximity to outdoor access. Another powder room is located on the ground floor. There is no shortage of storage throughout the home across both levels, including large cupboards on the upper-floor landing, numerous closets, and beneath the staircase. The expansive grounds are seemingly endless with garden paths weaving through the magnificent array of greenery at every turn. The grounds have been beautifully landscaped over many years, creating a secluded foliage-filled oasis, warranting heritage listing status. Outdoor entertaining can be experienced within complete privacy. The huge, elevated timber deck bathes in abundant sunshine with a north-easterly aspect, and there are numerous other al fresco spaces to enjoy throughout the gardens. The extensive allotment backs on to the heritage-listed Pipeline Track and also enjoys immediate access to breath taking walking trails and waterfalls, and there is just over 2 acres of private, titled land to explore that is equally as stunning. A double garage, an extensive driveway lined with majestic trees and additional off-street parking areas complete the vast property. With an incomparable level of peace and privacy, and with simply stunning rainforest surrounds, this superb and spacious family residence is truly a home that connects living space to its natural environment, providing a superior level of comfort without compromise in a highly desirable Fern Tree location.
