Modern Rural Living

Tucked away up high on the plateau known as Braeside and down a no through road country laneway, sits this striking modern styled 3 bedroom home. Surrounded by established gardens, with a veggie garden and hot house, you will be well on your way to producing your own food. A double carport with handy workshop space is ideally positioned near the home. Totalling 3.7 ha (9.1 acres) of rolling tree lined pastures, with a large dam at the top and another at the bottom, this is a very appealing property.

The home is sleek and architectural in its lines and is designed for low impact living, with double glazed PVC windows and doors and with the high level of insulation, this is a very energy efficient home. A large sunny deck overlooks the gardens, extending out from the living area through large sliding doors. A second deck comes off the study or 3rd bedroom. The soaring ceilings in the open plan area add to the feeling of space and allows plenty of light to flood into the room.

Heating is via a fantastic combustion stove range, perfect for cooking up a storm whilst keeping you cozy. The kitchen also comes with a gas cooktop and the clever island bench mimics the intriguing shapes created by the architectural design of the building. There are lovely features throughout including the solid timber floors and internal doors.

Outside, the land consists of mostly pastures, all well fenced for farm animals such as cows or sheep. A stand of trees run up the side boundary and around a huge dam at the top of the property. This location is ideal for being able to gravity feed back to the house gardens. There are smaller and larger fenced off paddocks for stock rotation and hay production. An old tractor and hay shelter is tucked around the corner.

Sitting in the hills of Franklin allows for wonderful peace and privacy and yet is only a few minutes drive to the riverside township where you can grab a coffee, or some fish and chips. Take a walk along the riverbanks or pop a kayak in for a paddle.

Franklin is around 10 minutes from Huonville and around 45 minutes to Hobart, making it a comfortable commute.
