Arguably one of the most outstanding homes on the East Tamar, this property is sure to attract attention from discerning buyers.
Hand cut by a stone mason from sandstone, the home sits in the centre of 3 acres, surrounded by beautifully designed gardens, rock walls, meandering stone paths, box hedges and wisteria arches.
It's difficult to describe the feel that you get when you first visit the property, but the WOW factor does come to mind.
Built in 1996 by a builder who appreciated attention to detail, the home offers 5 good sized bedrooms all with built-ins. Not included in the photo selection is a huge rumpus room that was previously set up as a billiard room.
This is the type of property that is perfect for a growing family but would still be suitable for an active retired couple, who enjoy their children and grandchildren staying over from time to time.
I think the most impressive feature of the property is the beautiful glass roofed entry area that boasts a sensational curved sweeping staircase, hand crafted from sassafras timber, leading up to 4 bedrooms located upstairs. There are two large bathrooms, main with spa, on both levels of the home.
For those fastidious buyers who appreciate the quality of Tasmanian timbers, this home features various types of timbers throughout the home, giving it character and charm without going over the top. It has recently been professionally painted throughout with new carpet, to give a much lighter and brighter feel.
Another truly outstanding feature, is the exposed stone feature wall in the living room that goes the full height of the building attached to the side of the mezzanine area upstairs.
Heated throughout with a choice of an electric reverse air conditioner or the wood fire. At every angle of the building are large picture windows that bring inside the views of the gorgeous gardens.
Recently, the owner built a magnificent outdoor entertaining area with pizza oven that has been a delight to friends and family.
There are many other features too numerous to mention, but more importantly, there are 20 solar panels fed to the grid for rebate @7c per kilowatt.
Two new timber sheds, (9x7m & 4x10m) suitable for housing between 7-9 vehicles, including a caravan, boat and tractor. The 50m2 double carport near to the home has a 3x6m2 lockup workshop with power. Also, a deck surrounds the above ground pool with near new solar dome cover used for heating.
There are multiple veggie gardens, established fruit trees and a wonderful new chook house.
This spectacular property is not visible from the road and is located up a private internal driveway. The distance to Launceston is only 20 minutes on a new bypass highway and in a school bus catchment zone.
There are lovely rural views from the home overlooking neighbouring pastures and a dam.
The owners will be sad to leave this dream property, but are looking to purchase acreage and build a new home.
There is a cafe within a 5-minute drive for beautiful food and small conveniences, and the main shopping area is at Mowbray only a 15-minute drive. The school bus collects children from their driveways all along this area, so no need for mum or dad to worry about collecting kids from school.
With Covid restrictions in place, within the guidelines, we can show an entire family at one viewing, this is counted as 1 person and regarded as an essential service. Alternatively face time is becoming popular if you would like a video walk through.
