Yes, this one has a lot on offer for the hobby farmer or the self-sufficient minded.

The house is very spacious including the open plan living, dinging, kitchen as well as the wrap around covered decking where you can sit back and admire your property. The living has a fabulous central wood fire which doubles as a great pizza oven too, creating warmth in the cooler months and plenty of atmosphere. There are 2 bedrooms with a bathroom, laundry and separate toilet along with the open plan living on the ground level. Up the stairs is a mezzanine overlooking the living and with access to a balcony. The master bedroom is up here too, also with balcony access. This room is huge is the walk-in-robe and the ensuite.

Attached is the car garage with storage room. A 6x6m shed provides more covered parking and workshop space. Out the back another open shed is ideal for the hay and the tractor or to keep the firewood dry. Pens with stables are ideal and practical, your chickens will be the most spoilt around. All 4 paddocks are fully fenced and electrified, rotate your stock to maintain good recovery growth in the individual paddocks.

Fruit trees and netted vegie gardens will further assist with self-sufficiency and the northern exposure allows for solar panels to be installed. Rainfall is very good here with around 800-900ml a year on average, collected from the roof into approximately 45,000L of rainwater tanks. Backed up with the dam for the gardens and stock, you will have more than enough water.

Positioned between the ever-popular Cygnet and the picturesque Woodbridge, this is both practical and yet slightly tucked away and private. Hobart CBD is around 45 minutes and Huonville or Kingston are only 30 minutes. Available with the current tenants for the purchaser looking to buy now for later, the return is good and the tenants are looking after the property like it was their own.
