Heron's Rise, an extraordinary lifestyle opportunity with an income capable of supporting the mortgage.
This once in a lifetime opportunity is set in the gorgeous coastal township of Kettering, just one kilometre from the Kettering Marina. It sits on an elevated acreage with picture -perfect views over the D'Entrecasteaux Channel and Bruny Island from all dwellings. This private paradise has beauty and character at every turn.
All the property has been superbly maintained - the delightful cottages, large family residence, extensive outbuildings, fences, vineyard, duckpond, bore water supply, fire defense system, landscaped gardens and lawns, large productive hothouse, abundance of freshwater storage and the very loved paddock pets.
There are four accommodation buildings on the property, each of which has been extremely thoughtfully positioned, providing incredible privacy whilst maintaining amazing views for all occupants.
Upon entry to the property, one is firstly greeted by the “Wine Loft”, a generous two-story building with two bedrooms and an open plan kitchen dining and lounge. Underneath is a very large storage area that was purpose-built for optimal wine storage and is currently used as a gymnasium and storage for “toys”.
Further up the drive, positioned perfectly on a rise to overlook the whole property, is the main residence, the “Stone House”. This warm, comfortable, solar passive home, enjoys multiple living areas, a conservatory, office area, large farmhouse kitchen, and walk-in larder. Three of the four bedrooms have ensuites giving the home further opportunity for short stay income or privileged guest and family accommodation.
Next is the “Clocktower” with two bedrooms, open kitchen, dining and two living areas including a private raised lounge with amazing views over to Bruny Island, providing a gorgeous sunny space to rest, read and relax.
Finally, we have “The Studio”, a gorgeous open plan kitchen, dining, lounge and split-level bedroom area.
Every building has its own wonderful character and have been built with energy efficiency in mind. The quality and craftsmanship is second to none and our vendors have taken great pride in maintaining and developing the property sensibly throughout their custodianship.
All but the Clocktower are double glazed and incredibly comfortable all year round, providing cosy winter living and cool pleasant summer days. The use of Tasmanian timbers throughout is tastefully done, creating a unique feel to each of the spaces. Half of the land is level and the other gently sloping, divided into five paddocks along with garden areas all with water supply.
Planning approval has been granted for two additional studios under the same roof in another private setting closer to the creek and native bushland.
If you have been looking for an inspirational property, with a degree of self-sufficiency; that special place where you can feel safe with your whole family, earn an income and enjoy the most incredible lifestyle, “Herons Rise” is without a shadow of doubt, the best opportunity to explore on the market today.
