This sweet 1920s cottage is positioned in the centre of its own 7 acres of land and commands striking views over the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. The views here extend over the property’s own pristine pastures and right through the neck of Bruny Island to the Tasman peninsular; this sweeping panorama is truly breathtaking and changes throughout the day offering a tranquil distraction from the rest of the world.
Some recent renovations have maximised the light and bright interior here while maintaining the warmth and charm of the home’s vintage. Tasmanian Oak flooring and high ceilings are a consistent feature throughout, as are the timber framed windows and doors that showcase those spectacular views.
Practicality and sustainability was the brief for the custom made kitchen which is constructed from Oak and Ply with engineered stone benchtops and very generous amounts of storage. Miele appliances finish the kitchen beautifully and include an integrated fridge and freezer as well as a dishwasher and electric cooker. A breakfast bar has been included in the upgrade and provides a more casual option for dining.
Both the formal dining area and living space flow easily from the centrally positioned kitchen which makes the home perfect for entertaining. The wood heater warms these spaces beautifully and a reverse cycle heater is offered as well.
The home offers 4 spacious bedrooms; the master provides beautiful, easterly views of the water and direct access to the front deck – this is a lovely spot to enjoy your morning coffee as the sun rises over the Channel.
There are two bathrooms offered here, with the family bathroom providing an impressively deep bath as well as a separate shower and dual vanity.
The house gardens are surrounded by excellent wallaby, possum, and rabbit proof electric fencing, which allows you to grow whatever you desire in abundance.
There are also a number of fenced paddocks, which currently house the adorable donkeys; these guys find shelter in the old, converted dairy which sits just above the house. A garage and woodshed are also found within the grounds, as are 2 dams which are home to many frogs, and they are a favoured spot of the many bird varieties that visit regularly.
Flowerpot is just 35 minutes from Hobart and there is so much on offer in the immediate area – There is an impressive amount of gourmet food and wine options locally, really lovely walks and beaches nearby, and being only 15 minutes from Bruny Island Ferry, it makes a day trip to the Island easy.
