Property Detail
Property Description
This incredibly quaint, 1950s cottage sits on approx. 809m2 of gently sloping land and set back from the highway in a slip road. The current owners have replaced the old kitchen with a stunning new one with quality appliances including a dual oven and gas hob. There is also a large pantry and a beautiful, pressed metal splash-back in keeping with the character of the home.
The house offers 2 double bedrooms (both with double glazed windows, built-in robes and main also has a very clever shoe closet); an open plan lounge and dining room; and combined bathroom / laundry. There are also 2 small rooms at the front of the house with one used as a home office and the other a sunroom. A large reverse cycle air conditioner heats or cools the house and the house is well insulated with batts in the ceiling.
At the back of the house is a well-fenced yard with a single garage (with workshop space and power connected); a gorgeous studio which is lined, has power connected and a wide deck off it making a very private sanctuary; a good-sized hot house and raised veggie beds as well as fruit trees. Behind the property are 2 acreages with dams and a small forest giving a lovely outlook.
A short walk along the path will take you to the Pitt Stop Take Away shop; it is a 5 minute drive to the Hill Street Store, Tavern, Pharmacy and Primary School at Dodges Ferry and the same to the major shopping complexes, Primary School and medical centre in Sorrel. The Hobart Airport and Cambridge Park complex are around 20 minute drive with Hobart City just over 30 minutes drive.
