671 Summerleas Road, Fern Tree TAS 7054

Situated in this tightly held suburb, within close proximity to Hobart one way and central Kingston the other, this beautiful, 5 acre property is a veritable sanctuary for the abundant native wildlife which inhabits this spectacular region. Enjoy a peaceful and private coexistence with frogs, birds, marsupials and the occasional platypus, amidst a picturesque, parklike setting. Introduce a horse or two or just keep busy enjoying harvesting your very own produce from the extensive and well-established orchard. This is a productive property for fruit and veg as well as your firewood needs, so heating and food bills are minimised along with petrol costs.

The comfortable three bedroom, two bathroom home has had a partial double glazing retro fit, a recent refurbishment of the ensuite to include underfloor heating and has a brand new freestanding gas stove, with electric oven and range hood. Apart from the Daikin split system air conditioner heating is provided by a locally made Steel Fire wood heater and a Scandia wood stove, which also works in conjunction with the solar hot water system.

A wraparound timber deck allows appreciation of the many different pretty outlooks over the property and an enclosed courtyard with shade sail is great for outdoor dining and family BBQs. Explore the bush up the back of the block at your leisure and follow the walking trails whilst finding those perfect trees from which to hang your hammock.

Fern Tree itself boasts the popular Fern Tree Tavern for meals and drinks and is the gateway for all kunanyi/Mount Wellington recreational pursuits, hiking, mountain biking and more. This is a lovely home with a wonderful feel in a desirable location, where you can live simply and comfortably amidst the stunning, natural surrounds, and still be only 10 minutes from major services.
