Last Listing description (January 2023)
Perched up high in the hills of Franklin, this 2 acre (8106m2) property is an ideal size to allow you to spread out, be self-sufficient and yet won't be too much to look after. Surrounded by similar rural lifestyle properties and with a fantastic view straight down the valley to the Huon River below makes this a very appealing spot. You will always feel on top of the world up here with the freshest air on offer.
Despite the alpine chalet styling, this home is cleverly designed to be passive solar with its large picture windows to the north, capturing the lower winter sun that will streams into the living space. During the summer months, the sun is much higher overhead and doesn't come in, keeping the home much cooler. The combination of the slate floors acting as a heat bank and carpet creating comfort, it is very well thought through.
The big open plan living is very inviting with large timber beams adding plenty of country character. Down one end is the lounge with the dining and kitchen up the other. A wood fire will keep you snug in the cooler months and provide a wonderful atmosphere too. The kitchen is very spacious with plenty of bench space and good quality appliances. There is a 900mm stainless steel gas cooker with a matching range hood and dishwasher.
From the main living space, a sliding doors opens out to a huge partly covered deck that is perfectly positioned to take in the panoramic views across the pastures, the river below and surrounding mountains. Completing the ground floor is a family bathroom, the laundry and a separate toilet. Up stairs there is another bathroom and 3 spacious bedrooms. The master bedroom gets the benefit of a Juliette balcony that also takes full advantage of the views.
Constructed from durable Colorbond, this is a very low-maintenance home. Apart from the passive solar benefits, there is also a solar hot-water system on the roof along with good rainwater storage with 2 galvanised tanks. There is plenty of space to develop the property further with fruit trees, veggie beds and chickens. The orientation of the home is ideal for solar panels too.
Franklin is a lovely riverside town with a huge amount of history. There are choices in eateries from cafes to pubs and fish & chips to restaurants. The river is a bonus with many waterbed activities revolved around wooded boats and rowing. Within 10 minutes up the road is the main hub of the Huon Valley at Huonville, where you will find all your shops and services. Hobart is a very picturesque 45 minute drive over the Wellington Range.
