29 Jacksons Road, Franklin TAS 7113

It is the heritage styling of this home despite the relatively recent build that makes it so special, along with the sheer size and the panoramic river and valley views on offer. Positioned up on the bank, right in the middle of 7.8 acres of lush pastures with an old apple & pear orchard, this grand home really is something special. It all starts with the driveway that leads you to a loop drive at the entrance to the home. The vistas right down the river become apparent at this point. The full wrap around verandah deck draws you in, including the large entertaining area that is accessed through French doors from the kitchen and dining area which forms part of a vast open plan living space.

The family room is at one end and a more formal lounge is at the other end. Here there is a faux wood fire heater for great ambiance and the main living area is kept comfortable with a reverse cycle air-conditioner. The period features of this home include the gorgeous timber floors throughout and the extra high ceilings as well as the ornate verandah balustrade. The recent construction of the home though, means it comes with all the modern day comforts including excellent insulation and double glazing down the entire southern side.

The grand master suite is at one end of the house and enjoys the incredible views out over the Huon River and comes with a walk-in-robe and ensuite bathroom. The other 3 bedrooms are down the hallway with a central bathroom, separate toilet and laundry. Well thought out, the night time rooms are at the rear and during the day, the views capitalised from the kitchen, the dining , the family living room and the master bedroom as well as the back bedroom that would make an ideal study or office space. The dining space provides a great space for a huge table for those family and friend gatherings and is the link between the kitchen, living and outdoor entertaining. These features are rarely on offer in old Federation homes.

Positioned right on the edge of the Historic riverside town of Franklin makes this home ideal to get involved with the vibrant community spirited village life and yet allows for the ability to return back to your own private piece of paradise. Should you need to commute, Hobart is only a 45 minute highly picturesque drive away, otherwise, if you can work from home, the NBN tower is just across the river on the green hills on the other side.
