If you are looking for a lifestyle change and a lifestyle property...

"Forest Ridge" is a beautifully maintained 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom brick home on a 5 acre block, offering a family quality lifestyle living. Elevated on the block, the sunny north-easterly aspect, natural bush and gorgeous water views provide peace and solitude ensuring you will enjoy this home in all seasons. Set on an amazing 5 acres in one of Tasmania's premium locations, this property is simply stunning with a mature vineyard and spectacular views, overlooking the vineyard, rolling hills and Kettering Marina.

It is a simple, comfortable entertainer featuring 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 extra powder rooms and a large kitchen/dining/living space that opens out onto a lovely deck. The well insulated brick home features a large centrally positioned kitchen and open plan living area, the internal living areas providing seasonal comfort and every window in the house absorbing the spectacular views. Adjoining this area is a more formal lounge and dining area complete with woodheater and heat transfer system. The master bedroom opens off this and features a walk in robe and en suite. There is also a second bedroom and powder room on this floor. The remaining 3 bedrooms and family bathroom are up a short flight of stairs and the views of the Derwent River from here are even better.

Downstairs the infrastructure includes a 7.1m X 4.2m workshop with concrete floor, and a wine cellar for storing up to 10,000 bottles. Adjoining the workshop is another large space which could be used for anything from cellar door, home office to games room and much more. There is a large powder room on this level.

Outside, this beautiful property consists of approximately 1400 vines planted about 20 years ago. If you are a budding winemaker this boutique opportunity provides unlimited scope for further improvement. The viewing deck/entertaining area is newly built and highlighted by the stunning views of the marina. The property is energy efficient, offering a 10KW solar power system.

The stunning views and the private neighbourhood provides a feeling of serenity and isolation, but you are in fact only 2 short kilometres from the delightful Kettering village with its popular marina and Bruny Island ferry service and only a half hour drive to Hobart CBD.
