This outstanding property in Margate is a mere 20 minutes from the Hobart CBD, but, with the 35 acres surrounding it, it feels as though it’s positioned within an amazing national park. Well-established tracks lead right through acreage, and a breathtaking waterfall and wonderful swimming hole are just a short stroll from the house.
This beautiful property perfectly combines city convenience and wilderness retreat living. Positioned thoughtfully in a cleared rise within the native bushland, you’ll find the sweet, simple, three bedroom cottage. From here you can take in views of the valley while enjoying abundant sunlight thanks to the northerly aspect.
As you enter the home via the spacious deck, you’re greeted by a lovely open plan kitchen and dining area. Raked ceilings give the impression of a large and welcoming space, while features such as the Fiddleback timber benchtops and oak trim throughout, help maintain a cosy, cabin like warmth.
On the ground floor are two double bedrooms, the family bathroom, and a generously proportioned living room. Here, you stay warm by the freestanding wood heater and enjoy the stunning views through the floor to ceiling windows and glass slider. Upstairs there’s a loft bedroom with views into the bush and plenty of additional space for stand alone storage.
Outside you’ll find a surprising amount of additional infrastructure, with a double garage and workshop, netted veggie gardens, and a spacious chicken run. Solar is installed to reduce the cost of living on the grid, and water storage is abundant.
This property is a celebration of the outdoors and thanks to the previous owner, a parks and wildlife ranger, these stunning grounds are easy to explore and enjoy. Wildlife is thriving here and there are rumours of a platypus in the creek. Photos struggle to capture the unique feel of the property, so I encourage you to phone or email for further information and to schedule an appointment to view.
