Property Description

This is a very special property located in an elevated position which affords outstanding views. For those contemplating a change of lifestyle and becoming more self sustainable, here’s your opportunity. No traffic passes this property and the peace and quiet is exactly that.

This property comprises approximately 64 acres of which about two thirds comprises natural forest, splendid man ferns, winter streams and abundant wildlife. The remainder is cleared and could suit any form of country lifestyle pursuit including fruit trees, vegetables, sheep or goats plus maybe even a pony. The current owners grow flowers for the cut flower market (Proteas) and in the past have also grown cherries and the like.

There is abundant water for irrigation purposes from the main dam together with two other smaller waterholes. Infrastructure is in place for this purpose including piping and pump. There is also significant fencing to keep the wildlife out of this section of the property. At the bottom of the property is a substantial 12m x 6m shed with concrete slab, electricity, separate cool-room and machinery cover. There is another 9m x 3m shed at the top of the property also with concrete floor and electricity supply.

The modest home is very functional and could benefit from a sympathetic upgrade though this wouldn’t need to be undertaken immediately. It is very liveable as is and comprises a large, open plan dining / lounge area, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a splendid L shaped wraparound deck from which to take in the views.

As for the views, they are stunning and face directly over the blue water of the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, Bruny Island and on a clear day even the Freycinet Hazards at Coles Bay can be seen.

This property has been much loved by the current owners who are now seeking to downsize to a smaller property.

Kettering is a quiet seaside town and the departure point for the Bruny Island Ferry. Nearby is the Oyster Cove pub and Marina and a short drive finds other local attractions such as Peppermint Bay Restaurant at Woodbridge. Kettering is a pleasant 20 minute drive to the Hobart CBD.

Inspections by appointment please.
