155 Wiggins Road, Longley TAS 7150

On nearly five acres of stunning native bushland sits this charming timber cottage offering an ideal escape from the daily hustle and bustle, whilst still only 20 minutes from Hobart.

Built from western red cedar with celery top pine uprights and vaulted timber ceilings, this lovely home exudes charm and warmth. Perfectly positioned on the high side of the block, the views extend through the canopy of towering gum trees to Cathedral Rock, Mount Wellington and beyond.

Embracing the north-easterly orientation the open plan living, kitchen and dining spaces are bathed in natural light from the floor to ceiling windows that run the full length of the home providing warmth and spectacular bush and mountain views throughout. A fabulous, centrally located wood fire will keep the whole home snug during the winter months. Sliding glass doors give access to the lovely timber deck which enjoys full sun and dappled shady areas from established native and ornamental trees.

A well-designed floor plan has two bedrooms and a family bathroom at one end of the home and the master bedroom and ensuite at the other, to allow for privacy and separation. The laundry is practically situated near the back door giving easy access to the lovely fernery outside.

The property boasts 12 solar panels providing 3kW of power, an invaluable, spring fed dam plus a second dam and water tanks with over 30,000 litre capacity. For practical purposes there is a petrol pump to service the hydrant point and a roof mounted sprinkler system.

There is a large cleared and levelled area with a machinery shed and plenty of room to park cars and trucks. This space would also make an ideal building site for an ancillary dwelling or holiday accommodation (STCA).

Located at the end of a no-through road this really is your own private hideaway but if you ever feel the desire to venture out locally, the nearby Longley International Hotel is a well-known spot for live music and boasts the Longest Huon Pine Bar in the world as well as the coldest beer in Tassie!
