20 Chittys Road, Franklin TAS 7113

Perched up in the hills of South Franklin, this 7.5 acres (3.048ha) property is the ideal mix of well fenced pasture and lush native forest. As you arrive at the property, the access is off the quiet no-through road via a formed gravel driveway that takes you onto the land through big double gates, with views out to the Huon River and the surrounding forest and rural pastures all set out in front. Add a lovely walk through your own tall gums that winds down through towering tree ferns to your own section of Fleurtys Rivulet at the bottom to complete an amazing combination.

The cleared area provides you with a blank canvas to start designing your new lifestyle. There are choices as to where to position your new home (stca). Where will the shed, the fruit trees and the veggie garden go? To the side there is the beginning of a landscaped native garden area with shapes already cut into the gully for ponds and a walking track that goes down through the many newly planted native plants, past a large stand of Tassie Wattles, down to a garden shed at the bottom corner.

On the other side, a gate leads you out of the fenced area along a walking path that is like the start of many hikes. This one quickly descends into the wattles on the edge of the gorgeous gumtree forest and then you are ducking under ferns as the trail heads down the hill. The atmosphere changes dramatically from an open sunny position to this fairy-land environment - it is hard to believe they are right next to one another within a short stroll. The trail pops out to the Fleurtys Rivulet which is a lovely little rocky creek that flows all year round. This forms part of your bottom boundary.

All of this is just down the road from the historic, riverside township of Franklin which offers choices in eateries and community involvement. This quaint section of the Huon Valley is located only 10 minutes south of the main Hub at Huonville, where you will find all your major services including supermarket and doctors. The Hobart CBD is 45 minutes away should you need to commute for work. Please contact us for further information or to arrange a meeting on site.
