613 North Huon Road, Ranelagh TAS 7109

There's something quite magical about this 13.96Ha property on the outskirts of Ranelagh in the Huon Valley. It combines the characteristics most are looking for, but never find; River access (across Crown Reserve), native forest with towering gums and the wildlife that comes with it and acres of green rolling pasture. The beauty found in this spectacular corner of Tasmania is equal to that found anywhere in the world, it also comes with wonderful local history. Having been part of the former 'Forest Home' property, one of the first in the area and a very significant part of the town's identity.

This property has both farming and tourism potential, where you can get in touch with nature and also experience a working farm. With planning permission already in place for a family home, which has been designed by a highly regarded local architect as an attractive, practical space and multiple holiday studio accommodations. Where visitors can explore the solitude and beauty and return home to a comfortable abode in the evening. Where they might even barbeque a fish they caught during the day on the River.

With outstanding valley views in all directions it's easy to see how this farm might draw you in and once here you have the opportunity to capitalize on the wealth of produce and natural beauty the Huon Valley has on offer.

Perhaps the most intriguing part of the property is the meandering green path which winds its way through the paddocks, past the stand of protected Eucalyptus and towards the River. It's when you arrive on the river banks that the most magical feature of all unfolds, a large sandy beach with waves gently lapping. A perfect spot to launch a kayak, or build a campfire and have a cuppa. Who'd have thought you could access a sandy beach on a river?

Just 10 minutes from all the major services of Huonville and 45 Minutes to Hobart, you are close enough, but still a world away.
