This solidly built, brick home was the original farmhouse for the area prior to the paddocks being subdivided into smaller allotments. Not surprisingly, it therefore occupies one of the prime positions of the area. With only a narrow crown reserve separating the allotment from the waterfront, the property affords magnificent 180 degree views over Mortimer Bay and the Derwent Estuary through to Hobart City and Mount Wellington.
The land itself is gently sloping and comprises mostly pasture which is perfect for those wishing to keep a few animals or even a pony or two. There are numerous garden spaces surrounding the home including a small orchard as well as suitable areas for growing your own vegies, roses etc. The land surrounding the home has been completely rabbit proofed. Also on the property are numerous outbuildings including under cover parking and sizeable workshop spaces for the home handyman.
The home itself is very spacious with several living areas. Floor to glass windows in all rooms ensure plenty of sunlight all year round and of course take in those superb water views. The main bedroom is surprisingly large complete with generous size ensuite. The remaining bedrooms all have built in storage whilst the other two bathrooms have both been renovated to a high standard.
The kitchen is roomy and contains quality appliances together with a scullery. The entire home is connected to an efficient, central electric heating / cooling unit plus there are also two wood heaters. Solar roof top panels complete the picture.
There is much to talk about regarding this special property. If living the country lifestyle while still being close to services (including the Hill Street Grocer at Lauderdale) is your aim, we highly recommend your inspection.
