Welcome to a piece of paradise, just 10 minutes from Hobart!
Marvel at the temperate rainforest, giant tree ferns, green pasture, listen to birdsong, watch native animals, delight in the seasons…
A unique residence, with a modern design, set within a small intimate community, is offered for sale, on its own strata title, for the first time!
Evocative and romantic, ‘Settlers Green’ is located 420m above sea level, in the foothills of majestic Mt Wellington. Adjacent to National Park, historical stone aqueducts and the famous ‘Pipeline’ walking track, the property also has direct access to numerous mountain bike trails and waterfalls. The region boasts a pristine environment, with clean air, pure water and abundant native animals, plants and birds.
The delightfully renovated 1-bedroom Stone Cottage has great presence, constructed from ancient rocks found on-site. A clever, flowing, efficient winning design melds old and new, featuring high ceilings, exposed solid stonework, timber-lined walls, internal windows, kitchen servery, French doors and compact service areas (including built-in robe & laundry).
Glass doors and colonial picture windows create a light-filled atmosphere and afford expansive forest views from the lounge, kitchen, with the bedroom also opening directly onto an under-cover garden patio. There is the opportunity to extend if you wish.
This distinctive restoration, with new plumbing & wiring, has great appeal, particularly given its clean, contemporary feel!
The Stone Cottage has easy access, with parking at the side. Terraced areas at the rear of the property scenically step up to individual seating and viewing areas. A grand set of private steps constructed from old bricks lead from/to the main car park where additional parking is provided.
The exclusive ‘Settlers Green’ eco-friendly property comprises 3 strata title lots, with fabulous common areas totaling over 5,000m2. Amenities include communal forest, large outdoor stage/entertainment deck, barbeque areas, garden shed and wishing well.
As an investment property, rent of $250 per week provides a great return.
Living in your new home, not far from cafes and beach, you will feel a sense of well-being, immersed in nature.
