If you have a hankering for a relaxed sustainable country lifestyle then this place is for you! Situated in the quiet picturesque valley of Molesworth you can have the peace and privacy of a country lifestyle while being within easy commute to the city.
Located just ten minutes from beautiful New Norfolk and half an hour from the Hobart CBD, this country home is set on a quiet dead end road with very little passing traffic. Only a few minutes away from the local hall and primary school, this makes for a great place to raise a family, or simply a quiet haven to get away from the bustle of modern life.
This generous size solar passive character home offers an open plan design with 4 bedrooms, a sunroom, loft, large north facing deck, 6 acres of land fully fenced for livestock, 2 dams, huge tanks and lots of off street parking, not to mention the chook sheds, large poly-tunnel greenhouse and veggie cage.
Designed with a passion for passive solar, this home is set to soak in the winter sunshine, and to trap summer heat in the north facing rooms. This gives the owner great control over the temperature of the living area. A wood stove with oven and wet back means you avoid the cost of electric heaters, hot water system, and cookers.
Enjoy long showers because you know your hot water isn't costing the earth. Lovingly built by the owner, every wall, inside and out, is fully insulated. Internal windows allow natural light to permeate the building without forfeiting privacy. Here you can enjoy minimal power bills or install your own solar for a completely off grid lifestyle.
Beautiful snowy hills melt to rise the winter creek to a roar. Water has not needed to have been purchased as dams and huge water tanks have been made a priority.
You will be harvesting your own pears, plums, apples, peaches, apricots and more from the orchard. Enjoy gooseberries, red white and black currants and jostaberries in berry season. The huge veggie cage has previously supplied to the owners strawberries, kale, radish, New Zealand sweet potato, spinach, rainbow chard and much more. You can also harvest your own tomatoes and cape gooseberries year round from the poly-tunnel greenhouse. So if your after the low cost, laid back, banjo plucking', berry picking' lifestyle then don't hesitate to call me today to ensure that you do not miss out on this rare opportunity.
