25 Moores Road, Middleton TAS 7163

The d'Entrecasteaux Channel might be one of the hardest names to pronounce, but it's one of the prettiest places to live and this absolute diamond of a property overlooks it all. The delightful family home plus chalet style Bed and Breakfast on over 36 acres approx. has commanding views of the Channel and is only about 2 minutes from the boat ramp, jetty and village shop - and the wonderful, scenic fishing grounds of the Channel. Nearby Middleton beach is a great spot for the kids. This village is one of the prettiest in Tasmania and even has its own annual festival, yet it is only 35 minutes to Hobart on one of the most scenic drives imaginable, and less than 15 minutes from the picturesque Kettering marina and car ferry to Bruny Island.

The two bedroom home is a treat with some surprising features. Modern yet full of character, neat as a pin and with breathtaking views in all directions. The sunroom makes a great breakfast room summer and winter, taking in the early morning sun across the water with its fantastic Bruny Island views. This is truly a home to enjoy every minute of the day.

The approximately 40 sqm approx chalet is perfect extra accommodation with bedroom, bathroom, lounge and kitchen, either as a Bed and Breakfast or for family and friends when they come to visit. It also sports a large deck overlooking the impressive sweep of the Channel.

The sunny land is a nice division of about 2 hectares, (approx. 5 acres) of pasture and the balance easy-care bush - providing a winter wood supply for the cosy fireplace and a lovely backdrop, but requiring virtually no work. There is a vast water supply, not only from the approximately 26,000 gallons of tank water, but also a handy dam. Run a few sheep or goats to mow the grass, or consider planting a small vineyard - you won't run out of water. The region is part of the Huon Wine trail -ideal for viticulture. A shadehouse and approximately 9 x 3 metre vertical board timber shed, (so characteristic of the region), will assist in this venture. At the edge of the property is a winter creek - follow it up through the bush on your own adventure trail to find a charming man-fern gully and some terrific rock formations.

This rare gem of a property simply won't last long on the market, so don't miss your opportunity.
