Escape to the country! This tremendous tree and sea change opportunity is only 9 minutes' drive from the substantial satellite town of Sorell, and a comparatively short 30 minutes' commute to Hobart CBD, yet it feels like the distant coastal/country paradise you only read about in story books and dream of from time to time.
Set on around 1.5 gently sloping acres (5,946m2) this roomy, solid and comfortable homestead all on one level is close to family-friendly beaches, surfing hot spots, and fishing waterways. It will provide the perfect backdrop for many years of happy memories you and your family can share together.
There's plenty of space for your family to spread their wings with four generous bedrooms, as well as two large, versatile living areas. The main bedroom has luxurious access to a private sundeck with pergola roof where you can sit and watch the children play and features an opulent large ensuite with spa.
The floor plan flows well with open and semi-open environments linked by the neat and tidy, well-equipped kitchen. Your family and guests can mill around the bright and open plan spaces while the casserole is simmering away.
Currently set up as formal dining, this beautifully bay-windowed, polished oak floored room with lovely pastoral outlooks, could also be used as a separate living room for the parents while tired youngsters can chill at the other end of the house after the day's outdoor play in the grounds or at the beach.
The whole home is kept luxuriously warm or cool via the reverse cycle air conditioner made even more efficient via a 20-panel, 5.5Kw solar power system which has made a 60% reduction in running costs for the owners.
Outside has been geared for action - it's the perfect place to enjoy Tasmania's diverse seasons from long summer days spent in the easy care gardens, playground equipment with the kids, or balmy star-gazing evenings around the brick barbeque shelter; to winter when the air is fresh and country scents are sweet from rain. This property will do all it can to get you outdoors and embracing life!
There are thoughtfully fenced off pens to keep the animals and children safe and secure. Colourbond Gutter Guard has been installed, and irrigation is sorted via two 24,000 litre water tanks, and a third 10,000 litre tank. Established and bountiful plum, apricot and apple trees are adorned by easy care plantings and shrubs. Handy people or those with hobbies will love the especially useful, stand-alone, 42m2 (approx.) workshop with power and plumbing. A double side-by-side carport rounds off the complete package.
Paradise? I think you have found it.
