“Space and Charm, Character home on 7.5 Acres”
Privately situated adjacent to boutique vineyards is this charming, north-facing, character home. Built in 1927, this appealing 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom property is set on 7.5 acres with immaculate lawns and rolling pastured grounds and sweeping panoramic views across to Grey Mountain.
Inside, the property boasts numerous interesting features including a warm and welcoming country style eat-in kitchen (celery top pine) with large pantries and pot-belly stove, high-quality carpeting, original Tassie oak floorboards, sash windows and separate formal living and dining rooms that are heated by a two-way wood heater. There is ample storage space throughout, including a beautiful timber bookcase in the hallway. Two of the 3 spacious double bedrooms look out onto the surrounding gardens. The 3rd bedroom, currently used as a study, has direct access to 1 of the 2 bathrooms (with shower and toilet) and adjoins a very bright, inviting sunroom. With its own private entrance and separate plumbed utility room, the sunroom would be ideal for guests or teenagers’ accommodation. The family bathroom, with its unique keyhole window and claw foot bath with overhead shower, adds to the property’s old world charm.
Outside, there are 3 separate sun-decks, perfect for entertaining, double carport, plus 2 small wood storage sheds and 2 large interconnected powered sheds (140 m2) suitable for a workshop and studio. The low-maintenance gardens consist of a large front lawn, complemented by stunning specimen trees, and both native and traditional plantings. The 7.5 acres of prime pasture is perfect for grazing animals or hobby farming, is fully fenced, and has 3 rainwater tanks providing approx. 60,000 litres of water storage capacity.
Franklin sits along the Huon River and has some of the finest cafes and restaurants for you to enjoy along the water’s edge. Approximately 10 minutes to Huonville and 40 minutes to Hobart’s CBD. Inspections by appointments only.
