Two Beautiful Homes by the Rivulet

This enchanting property offers almost four acres of land, which includes sections of the Castle Forbes Bay Rivulet. Not only is there a spacious five bedroom home, there is also an additional two bedroom cottage.
The main dwelling is a beautiful western red cedar residence with a wrap-around veranda that overlooks the rivulet. Inside you’ll see that this home is just as unique as it is charming and features such as the high ceilings and lead light windows give it a distinctive personality.
There are five generously proportioned bedrooms in the main house, each with its unique character. There’s one upstairs, one downstairs, and three on the entrance level; each of these has its own French doors that lead onto the deck. This clever design of the floor plan makes the home feel incredibly spacious and gives great flexibility in the way you use each space.
The kitchen and dining are semi open plan and very well proportioned. A freestanding wood heater provides warmth here and the kitchen offers plenty of storage and work space.
The living room is more formal and provides an open fireplace and French doors as well.
The bathroom in the main house has been split into two sections, one side provides the bath, the other a shower, and each has its own WC. The laundry separates the two and offers direct access outside.
Just away from the main dwelling, and fenced separately, you’ll find the adorable timer cottage. This has enjoyed lovely upgrades over the past few years and with a little more tlc, it’s sure to become an amazing additional guest house. Views of the rivulet are available from here as well, and there is a sweet little deck from which you can enjoy them.
The cottage offers two spacious bedrooms, and a fully equipped bathroom, with stunning art deco leadlight windows. There is a very spacious country kitchen, offering timber cabinetry and gas cooking and the separate living room houses an open fire. Gorgeous timber flooring and feature ceilings are found throughout the cottage and views of the garden can be seen from every room.
There’s plenty of additional infrastructure here as well; there’s space for the chickens and goats and fenced yards for the children and domestic pets. A large barn also sits at the entrance to the property.
This property is located within 10 minutes from Geeveston and is comfortably under an hour to Hobart. Phone or email for further information and to schedule your appointment to view.
