On offer is this much loved and extensively developed 8 Ha. (20 acre) property at the Northern end of the beautiful Huon Valley. Built in 2009 and extended in 2015, the spacious, contemporary styled home offers four large bedrooms – two with WIR and full ensuite - third family bathroom and two living areas, although the usage of these areas can be altered in many ways to offer, for example, an art studio, extra sleeping space, study, parents or teenagers retreat and more. Two covered outdoor living areas add further to the usable space available.
Over the last five years, approximately one acre around the house has been intensively developed into a north-facing, permaculture-based, productive and enchanting garden. The majority of our vegetable, fruit and herb needs are met (and very often exceeded) by what we grow. We are happy to provide more detail on the design, structure, development and content of the garden for interested parties.
The garden area is securely fenced to keep out the many native inhabitants of the area, which includes Devils, Quolls, Pademelons, Wallabies, Echidnas, Possums and more. Two large hothouses and a major part of the outside garden are watered by a fully reticulated, gravity-fed watering system from the permanent creek that flows through the property. A 9m x 6m concrete-floored, powered shed and workshop adds to the functionality of the property.
The balance of the cleared land is suitable for a range of livestock purposes or even further horticultural development beyond what is already here.
The property is at the upper end of the Crabtree valley and has a spectacular outlook across the valley and into the Mount Wellington National Park. Around 60% of the property is cleared land while the remainder is native bush. An extremely tranquil and natural environment is its essence even though it is only a 35-minute drive to Hobart.
We are offering this property ourselves which means that anyone interested can directly request more information, call to discuss, come and view it all with us, ask us questions and hear more of what has gone into its development.
