Welcome to number 5 Pine Lodge Rd! This gorgeous 1950's home has been stylishly upgraded over time to provide an idyllic, self-sufficient country property on just under an acre of land. The upgrades have included a new roof making this property low maintenance for years to come. The home features 3 good sized bedrooms, and the master suit comes complete with large built-in robes. The modern family bathroom, and recently upgraded laundry offers clean, sleek amenities. The kitchen really is the hub of this home, finished with modern, white cabinets and rich timber bench tops with a breakfast bar for the family to gather around. Just off the kitchen, the large lounge room is a gorgeous, light-filled space with new wood fire and reverse-cycle air conditioner to keep you comfortable year round. The lounge opens up onto the bullnose verandah via large sliding doors providing a beautiful, relaxing space to kick back and relax, and offering great options for seamless indoor/outdoor living.
Outside, the land has been spray-free for the past 3 years, and the gardens have been cultivated using permaculture principles. The front of the home features pretty established trees, and spring brings an abundance of bulbs. A beautiful Liquid Amber in front of the verandah offers lovely shade and privacy in the summer months, and stunning green foliage to enjoy. Out the back, excellent farm sheds and a small studio room offer plenty of storage for all your toys, equipment, and garden supplies, whilst also offering the option of a home office and workshop. There are two fruit and veggie patch areas; one ready to go with a crop of potatoes planted, and the other an abundance of established apple trees, plum trees, and a mulberry tree, amongst other things. Last year the current owners took a massive 400kg haul of apples so you're certainly not going to short on supplies here! Adding to the self-sufficient lifestyle, there is a great chook pen allowing the hens to free range during the day, and stay safe at night, and the large backyard is fully fenced for kids and pets.
One of the most fantastic features of this property is the water licence from the Huon River allowing withdrawal of 4000L per day for domestic consumption. This not only means the family will enjoy an abundance of water year round, but the fruit and veggies are going to love you too! This delightful small hobby farm is located in the small township of Glen Huon, just a short drive from the Huon Valley hub of Huonville. Huonville offers everything you'll need including shops, supermarkets, schools, cafes and restaurants. Glen Huon is approximately 40 minutes drive from Hobart CBD, and also benefits from being on the local school bus route. We can't wait to show you around this fantastic property!
