Secure your Channel lifestyle...
There is nothing more energising than securing a tree change in southern Tasmania within walking distance of the DEntrecasteaux Channel. Situated on the high side of Woodbridge Hill Rd, nestled amongst gumtrees, this solid 2-storey home offers space for a growing family or your own piece of retirement tranquillity in a highly sought-after area of the Channel.
North-facing with all-day sun, on a gently sloping block and just a couple of minutes drive to the popular Woodbridge Village and the iconic Peppermint Bay, this property offers picturesque views across the DEntrecasteaux Channel to Bruny Island and beyond providing some of the most amazing vistas and sunrises. It will be hard to drag yourself away from the ever-changing views of the Channel visible from the garden, lounge, kitchen, dining table or your favourite spot on the deck!
This comfortable, light-filled, brick and tile home draws warmth from the sunshine that streams in the windows during the day but also has a Lopi wood heater, heat pump and panel heaters for those colder days and nights. The massive covered deck around two sides of the house allow you to take in the views, enjoy a quiet coffee, entertain friends or let children play outside whatever the weather.
The home has been tastefully renovated with bamboo flooring and quality carpets and a sensational, gourmet kitchen with stone benchtops, soft close doors and drawers, top of the range v-Zug wall oven, Smeg induction cooktop and Siemens dishwasher, which provides loads of storage options with two pantries (one walk-in) and great design features like the nook for the all-important coffee machine. You will enjoy doing the washing in the up-to-date large laundry with spacious benchtops, deep sink with pull-out mixer tap (perfect for filling your Vacola bottling urn) and massive floor to ceiling linen cupboard with sliding doors. The 3 good-sized bedrooms all have built-ins and each have a lovely view of the surrounding tress and gardens.
The downstairs rumpus provides endless possibilities whether as a teenage retreat, an adult hideaway or a home theatre and entertaining space. It leads to a large undercover parking area for 3 cars beneath the deck providing dry access to the house in all weathers.
The property consists of approximately 1.4 Ha or 3.4 acres of mostly cleared pasture with separated, fenced paddocks and a dam. Around the home there are raised garden beds, chook house, small hothouse, a pickers hut just waiting to be converted into a studio or she-shed, space for children to play and plenty of scope to add your own touch to the landscaping. A large, under-house, 3-bay garage with additional cellar will please anyone who is hankering after a tucked-away workspace that is still connected to the main house.
The highly regarded and popular Woodbridge K-10 School and Marine Discovery Centre is just down the road as is West Winds Community Centre with Wombats Childcare and leisure activities, the local shop, post office (voted best in Tasmania in 2017), community hall and churches. You can call Peppermint Bay Hotel your local and a sensational indoor heated swim centre is just up the road at Woodbridge Hill Hideaway. The Channel and nearby Huon Valley offer the best in Tasmanian views, produce and lifestyle so you will treasure the short, scenic drives to pick up your fresh farm cheese, smoked salmon, berries or stone fruit, artisan chocolate or a visit to a vineyard, the many local beaches and waterways.
This home would suit a family wanting space for various activities or a couple looking to secure a tranquil place in a friendly, caring community. School buses stop at the front gate and provide direct routes to Woodbridge and Peregrine Schools plus connections with school buses to public and private schools in Kingston. There is a MetroTas bus service to/from Hobart that departs from Woodbridge Village and stops at Hobart College for senior secondary students.
Being only 15 minutes drive from the cultural hub of Cygnet with its annual Folk Festival, 20 minutes from major supermarkets and services in Kingston and approximately 30 minutes to the Hobart CBD, what better way to escape to the country yet with easy access to all conveniences!
