Phone enquiry code for this property: 2133
This mudbrick and timber home, set on an acre of land is a sanctuary to live in. The home faces north and is designed to take advantage of the winter sun. Rare timber beams are a highlight of the ground floor design along with functional and warm cork flooring.
Some of the key features are:
- Passive solar open plan design
- Mud-brick ground floor construction providing cosy winter warmth
- 40,000-litre water tank (no water use costs)
- 3 generous sized bedrooms
- 2 bathrooms
- Under cover parking for 2 vehicles
- Well established permaculture vegetable, orchard, berry garden and chicken coop
- Large dam providing year-round garden water.
- Generous garden shed with undercover work area.
- Easy commute to Hobart -20 minutes and Kingston 15 minutes
The open living spaces on both floors provide beautiful views of Mt Wellington and a well-established ornamental and fresh food garden. The ground floor is an open plan design with the kitchen adjoining a spacious lounge, dining area with a wood heater providing a central focus. There is also direct access to the main bathroom, laundry and bedroom with inbuilt wardrobes. In winter the entire home is kept cozy and warm with a THORMA European wood heater, which uses up to 60% less fire wood than a standard fire place. Upstairs, sweeping views are on offer from two generous bedrooms. Mt Wellington is again centre stage, so too are the gardens which the home is nestled in. There is also a convenient bathroom and toilet upstairs, an inbuilt wardrobe tucked neatly into the landing area at the top of the stairs.
The home outlook is onto an established native and ornamental garden and provides privacy and a tucked-away feel. A large dam provides the property with water for the garden all year round, which is made up of a fully enclosed vegetable patch based around permacultural principles, separately enclosed orchard and berry (4 different berries including gooseberries) patch which produce abundant organic produce. The garden space is thoughtfully designed, with access for wildlife to graze in between the enclosed food growing areas. The garden immediately surrounding the home is fenced and protected.
A separate garage provides under cover parking for two vehicles and there is easy convenient parking for 2 further vehicles adjacent to the garage. There is an ample garden shed, wood shed and undercover work space which adjoins a chicken coop and free-range paddock.
The home is perfectly situated being 20 minutes from Hobart, 15 minutes to Kingston and the amenities which both offer, whilst living in a friendly rural environment.
Please ring to have a private inspection. Queries are welcome.
