'Avalon' - Tucked away in the tranquil surroundings of 185 Longwood Road, Bagdad, this delightful country home offers a serene escape on over 13 acres of land, perfectly zoned for landscape conservation. With its charming stone foundations and chimneys, the home radiates a classic appeal that feels like it's been part of the landscape for generations.
Inside, you'll find 4-5 generously sized bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 living areas, a studio/home office space, a double carport, a versatile workshop or storeroom, and two additional outbuildings (The Potting shed and the Barn) including one with a historic stone chimney from the original land grant era. The Barn has its own wood heater and would easily convert to extra accommodation (STCA) or a perfect man cave. The property offers stunning valley views from both sides, with dramatic escarpments and distant peaks adding to its picturesque charm.
Once a cosy retreat for visitors, the home features a warm and inviting lounge with a stone fireplace and wood heater, ideal for unwinding after a day spent exploring the outdoors. A spacious studio measuring 5m x 10m provides endless possibilities for creative endeavours with a north-facing orientation.
Built from Tasmanian Oak with a stone foundation, this property has been thoughtfully restored by the current owners, blending historic charm with modern comforts. The large kitchen offers plenty of potential for further updates, allowing you to put your own stamp on this unique space.
The home includes two bathrooms, each offering its own appeal. The original bathroom retains its character with a separate toilet, and the second bathroom has been recently updated. The property is well-equipped with an upgraded switchboard, multiple water tanks with a pressure pump, and satellite NBN availability—though a mobile booster might be needed for reliable mobile service.
For those who love gardening, there are two fully enclosed vegetable gardens mulched and ready to plant. The conservation covenant and landscape conservation zoning ensures that the natural beauty of this land is preserved, allowing native flora and fauna to thrive. The property is already a haven for native wildlife, including wombats, wallabies, and a variety of bird species, and there is a fully fenced area for your dogs as well.
This recently renovated home boasts original polished Tasmanian oak floorboards, and spacious rooms, and oozes charm and character. It's a true piece of Tasmanian paradise—are you ready to make it yours?
