103 Watsons Road, Glen Huon TAS 7109

The Huon Valley is one of Australia's most picturesque locations with rolling green hills, mountains and rivers; it's easy to see why so many of us choose to call it home. Nestled within this beautiful Valley, in the foothills of Glen Huon, sits this gorgeous 1890's cottage, oozing charm and character everywhere you look! The home sits on a quiet street on 5254m2 of land, and would be ideally suited to both a small hobby farm, or further development (STCA). The home itself would make a wonderful permanent residence, or a quaint Airbnb set amongst pretty, low maintenance gardens and paddocks.

The home instantly welcomes you as you drive up the road and notice the classic 1890's Australiana facade with a high pitched roof and wide wrap-around verandah. Entering through the front door, the wide hallway leads into the home and past the first 2 bedrooms. These rooms are spacious and boast lots of original character including original windows with new timber shutters, high skirting boards and solid timber doors. The hallway continues further and leads you into a rich, timber library complete with an open fireplace; the perfect spot to curl up with a book and a local tipple. The third bedroom is situated opposite the library and fitted out in the same relaxed aesthetic as the other two rooms.

Beyond the library, the home opens up to a large open plan kitchen and dining room, flowing into the spacious lounge room. This area truly feels like the hub of the home with features such as pressed tin ceilings, rustic timber floors and lots of windows allowing light to flood the space. The instagram-worthy kitchen has been designed in a relaxed, stylish aesthetic with chunky timber cabinets, concrete benchtops and a classic concrete trough sink with brass tap to finish the picture. Not only is this kitchen gorgeous, it's also super functional with a large oven, dishwasher, walk-in pantry and timber island bench. Just by the sink, a door opens onto the verandah allowing lovely summer breezes to fill the home and over by the dining table, a woodfire keeps this space cozy in the cooler months. Beyond the living area, a central family bathroom with euro laundry built in is very quaint, and is also just by the backdoor for easy access when you're in the garden.

The property offers so many options outside depending on your requirements. The land is zoned Low Density Residential offering development potential, subject to council approval. If development isn't your thing, the gently sloping pasture paddocks are ideal for use as a small hobby farm with plenty of room for chickens, goats or a sheep or two. To the side of the property is a small timber carport, garden shed and wood store, and further down the back, a large lined studio with power could be used as a workshop, gym, or simply as extra storage.

Glen Huon is situated just 5 minutes (approx.) drive from the Huon Valley Hub of Huonville where you'll find all the things you expect from a small country town, including supermarkets, doctors, schools and butchers, as well as great cafes and Japanese, Korean and Indian restaurants. Huonville is approximately 30 minutes drive from Hobart CBD and is well connected by public transport for commuting to school, work and uni. Please call anytime for more information.
