8385 Midland Highway, Tunbridge TAS 7120

Set along the southern outskirts of the charming Midlands village of Tunbridge, this 1.014ha (2.50 acre) plot of land offers an ideal spot for the hobby farmer at an affordable price. The property has been divided into several well-fenced yards with two recently restored lock-up timber sheds. Currently used as a free-range pig farming enterprise. The early settlers' cottage was the Hall families residence (well-known Tunbridge farming family) during the early 1900s.
Exposed split timber walls and open fireplace to remain in the cottage. The block is connected to the town water supply with established access from the Midland Highway to the property.
Offering an inspiring rural view to the east towards the village of Tunbridge and surrounding grazing land.
Zoned '26.0 Rural Resource' under the Southern Midlands Council Intern Planning Scheme. Building a new dwelling and/or restoring the workers' cottage does require a 'Planning Permit', which can be obtained via the Southern Midlands Council.
Located on Midland Highway, originally known as Tunbridge Wells (after the famous English spa town), Tunbridge is a historic village which is only 15 minutes drive south to the Southern Midlands hub Oatlands or a similar distance north to Campbell Town and only 10 minutes to historic Ross. Set on the banks of the Blackman River, the township is passed by the main Midland Highway and consequently has a quiet charm well removed from the urgency of the highway. The Tunbridge Community Club is only a short drive from this property. Drive-by postal delivery by Australia Post provides the service from Oatlands. The major centres of Launceston and Hobart are only just over an hour's drive away.
Think permaculture; think hobby farmer; think restoration of a historic cottage, 8385 Midland Highway offers it all. For an inspection or opportunity to 'walk the boundaries', feel free to contact Nick Hay from Harcourts Northern Midlands.
