This exceptionally rare holding presents an outstanding opportunity to secure a substantial lifestyle property with multiple dwellings in place, ideal for those seeking to generate income from home. Spanning approximately 39 acres of combined land, the property features gently pastured paddocks, areas of natural bushland to explore, a established apple orchard, a large irrigation dam and a year-round rivulet flowing through the grounds. Positioned close to the Huon River, select vantage points also enjoy distant water views.
At the heart of the property stands an impressive 1880s period residence that has been thoughtfully refreshed while retaining its timeless charm. Recent upgrades include fresh internal painting along with kitchen and bathroom improvements, plus electrical rewiring and plumbing, while original features such as an open fire place, dado walls, Baltic pine ceilings, original timber flooring, leadlight stained-glass windows and elegant internal French doors remain proudly on display. An untouched roof space offers exciting future potential.
The floorplan is classic for the era, centred around a stunning wide entry hallway. Five generous bedrooms and a two-way family bathroom flow from the hall, while multiple living zones provide flexibility for modern family living. The home currently offers formal living and dining rooms, a separate family room and a sun-filled sunroom overlooking an immaculately maintained hedge—an impressive feature reflecting years of care. The laundry, wood storage area, separate powder room and additional storage are also located in this wing of the home. Heating options include the, wood heaters and the convenience of a reverse-cycle air conditioner.
Complementing the residence is a substantial 27m x 9m workshop/machinery shed or garage, with the inclusion of three phase and single phase power, ideal for boats, caravans, trucks or heavy machinery thanks to its elevated roofline. This structure is equipped with a concrete slab, power, sliding doors and a 1ton gantry and mechanics pit. The original garage and carport remain in use behind the main home, providing further storage and parking options.
Adding to the income potential are three additional cottages. Two have already seen improvements by the current owner, allowing you to complete them to your own taste. The first cottage, which is currently tenanted and was formerly the farm manager’s quarters, offers three bedrooms, one bathroom, living area, kitchen/dining, a sundeck and a separately fenced yard. The second cottage includes two bedrooms, kitchen, living area and bathroom and requires further work. The third cottage offers three bedrooms, bathroom and open-plan kitchen/living and is also ready for renovation.
Water supply is abundant, with a large dam suitable for irrigation or further agricultural use, a year-round rivulet supported by a water licence, and town water connected to the main residence and cottages. With accommodation already in place, the property would also suit a working farm, while maintaining excellent separation between the main residence and the farm infrastructure, ensuring privacy for all occupants.
This is a truly unique property offering exceptional versatility, lifestyle appeal and future potential. Perfectly positioned near the Huon River for boating and water activities, with Franklin Foreshore, Port Huon Marina and boat ramp just minutes away.
