Situated on a quiet no-through road, 135 Palmers Rd is a delightful property on 1650m2 of land within a rural setting, and affectionately known as ‘Honeywood Rise’. Just 3 years old, the home is compact and well designed with double glazed windows throughout, as well as excellent ceiling, floor and wall insulation. A fantastic sun deck off the living takes in the magnificent views of the surrounding pastures, the Huon River, Kermandie River and Hartz Mountain range, an outlook which can also be enjoyed from each of the bedrooms and living. The land is flat to gently sloping and well set up with a chicken run, veggie patches, ornamental gardens, a workshop and a studio, and even space for a goat or two.
Inside, this two bedroom home packs a punch within the 88m2. Comprising an open plan kitchen, living and dining as well as 2 good sized bedrooms, a fantastic full sized bathroom and even a separate laundry. The bedrooms each have built-in robes, and large picture windows which beautifully frame the views as well as allowing natural light to stream in. The rooms are finished with block-out drapes when needed. Both bedrooms are spacious enough to include study desks enjoying the most wonderful river, mountain and valley views. The well appointed kitchen finished in modern matte black has everything you need to cook up a storm, and even a space large enough for a double-door fridge. The bathroom is spacious and stylish with a full walk-in shower, large vanity and toilet. At the other end of the home, a full sized laundry with extra toilet makes this area super functional and practical.
The highlight of the property has to be the living room which is light and bright and finished with Blackwood flooring. Via stacking sliding doors, this room opens up onto the front deck overlooking the magnificent river and mountains offering great indoor/outdoor flow. The living room is fitted with a reverse cycle air conditioner to keep you comfortable all year round and an ultra efficient wood heater that uses a fraction of the wood compared with traditional wood fires. The design of the home maximises passive heating with the winter sun keeping your power bills to an absolute minimum.
Outside, the property has been well set-up with a large chicken run, veggie patches and fruit trees that are coming along really well. The yard is fully wallaby-proofed to keep the critters out, and to contain kids and pets in. The ornamental garden has been designed to change with the seasons, and encourage the native bird-life to enjoy it year-round with the likes of Scarlet Red-breasted Robins and Superb Blue Wrens. Pittosporum hedging has also been planted for added privacy. Two containers have been cleverly put together to create a workshop and art studio, offering great extra space, and a permit is in place for a carport between the house and workshop, should that be of interest.
This delightful property would be ideally suited to first home buyers, or those looking to downsize into something manageable and sustainable. Situated just 15 minutes drive (approx.) from the Huon Valley hub of Huonville, and just under an hour (approx.) from Hobart CBD. The local shop is only 2 minutes down the road and the gorgeous country town of Geeveston is 5 minutes away with doctors, small supermarket, butcher and wonderful eateries. We can’t wait to see you at one of our open homes, or by book in a private inspection!
