A quiet sanctuary of 9 acres (3.701 ha) of rich, level, sheltered, north-facing pasture and bush includes a beautiful 2 bedroom western red cedar cottage; water, rural and bush views; a dam, and a large historic old apple and boat building shed, all 300 meters from the magnificent Huon River.
You could simply watch the abundant bird and wildlife from the three verandahs of this delicious light-filled cottage, or write that book, agist a few horses and receive a nice hay cheque each year. Or with a perfect site for a huge dam you could run a few horses or alpacas, plant a specialist crop like saffron or truffles; put up a couple of Eco cabins (with Council approval) - one for Woofers and friends, one for income - plant your own veggies and fruit trees, or landscape your own haven here. Do up the huge old boat-making and apple-crate making shed outside. Just stroll across the road to go fishing, rowing, or keep a boat on the tranquil waters of the beautiful Huon River. Local old-timers call this land "the best growing-paddock in the district". Rich deep topsoil, all-day sun, sheltered by trees and hills, this land has been run on organic principles since 1993. Careful thinning of the bush windbreak could give you big, immediate water views as well. Designed and placed to bring light throughout the house all day, the big central open-plan kitchen, dining and living area looks out to tranquil greenery, expansive verandas and river glimpses, wonderful for entertaining. Efficient gas heating, built-in wardrobes, undercover clotheslines and parking add to the snugness of this rural retreat. The fragrant garden is also planted for bird-attraction. 45 minutes to Hobart, 15 minutes to Cygnet's great cafes, galleries, festivals, supermarkets and schools – the much sought-after land in Lower Wattle Grove is selling fast.
