434 Old Station Road, Oyster Cove TAS 7150

In a remarkable and relatively undeveloped location on the Channel, where properties seldom become available, you will find this unique opportunity for sustainable and healthy living, only 30 minutes to the Hobart CBD.

Built in 1917, then later extended upon, the home has recently enjoyed considerable improvements and refurbishment. Reroofed and rewired in 2006, then in 2012 substantial repairs and improvements were completed by professional builders. In addition to underfloor insulation, extensive replastering and beautiful timber floor finishing using non-toxic natural waxes, the house was professionally repainted both within and externally. The bathroom has had a thorough renovation. Quality double glazed bi-fold doors in the dining area and the perfect sunny aspect allows winter sun to shine throughout. The home is heated by a hydronic pellet fire system that warms through to radiators that are positioned in most areas. Double thickness curtains with pelmets and thermal blinds have been installed and the added solar electrics plus solar hot water make this an energy efficient home. To top it off, there are two new 30,000 litre stainless steel water tanks that bring the total storage capacity to 100,000 litres.

Continually certified organic since 2002 and managed using organic and biodynamic principles, this hobby farm produces boysenberries, blueberries, apricots and apples, with plenty of space for vegetable growing. Whilst the farm is small in scale, the certified biodynamic produce is in high demand and there is considerable potential to expand production if desired. Comprehensive mentoring is offered by the existing owners to help maintain the status and intention of the land and the farm business can be handed over to the new owners upon negotiation of assets and equipment if required.

The uniqueness and beauty of the property is further enhanced by the surrounding nature of Conningham Reserve and the privacy created by the large land holdings of the neighbouring properties. The peace of this area is extraordinary, especially given that it is so close to shops and services, the Kettering Marina, local tourist attractions and restaurants.

With extensive infrastructure already in place and all the hard work done, take the time to relax amidst some of the best boating waters in the world as the owners are also offering a heavy duty mooring for purchase, very close by in Oyster Cove.

An amazing and incomparable lifestyle opportunity that should not to be missed.
