203 Binalong Bay Road, St Helens TAS 7216

The views from the homestead on this rural seaside farm are expansive with credit to landscaping the elevated house site. Georges Bay at St Helens greets you every morning with changeable light of every season. The southern boundary of the property is approximately 2.6km of the George River before it flows out to sea.
The large, modern 3 bedroom brick homestead boasts sitting, dining and lounge rooms whilst an informal family dining area is an extension of the kitchen. Barely 3 years old, the home was custom built for the Owner with quality in mind from start to finish. Noteworthy features include double glazing, modern heating and cooling systems, soft floor finishes and French doors onto the generous verandah. The house was built to display volume and substance.
Under the same roofline (insulated from the main home by a large garage) is a separate guest suite, namely a kitchen, double bedroom, bathroom and living area. This area is wonderfully located for extra accommodation (guests, house keeping staff).
The high rainfall catchment from the pristine hills and mountains of the Welborough and Pyengana valleys in Tasmania?s north east become the source of the George River. It meanders along the farm boundary leaving ?safe? sandy beaches in its wake. Picturesque clearings have been carved out of the native forests along the river banks for recreational purposes.
Farming pursuits could incorporate a small flock of breeding ewes for prime lamb production. Likewise, cattle would thrive on the pastures along these river flats. The current Owner supplies product to Pyengana Premium Meats, a providore for locally grown meats in St Helens.
Extra farm shedding structures include a double roll-a-door machinery shed, work shop and sheep yards.
Water supply for livestock and the vegetable garden is pumped from river whilst house water is sourced from roof catchment.
Land capability is approximately a 50% split pasture and river flats and 50% pristine native forest.
