Situated at the end of a quiet country road, with dual road frontages, is this 49 acres of pasture and bushland that has the perfect combination for a small farm close to Hobart and conveniences in Tasmania's picturesque Huon Valley.
Offering sweeping views of the surrounding hillsides and valley there are many potential building sites, subject to planning approval, located both near the access and services or toward the rear of the block away from it all.
The property is comprised of approximately 1/3rd native bushland and 2/3rds rolling pastures and includes a large lake sized dam that is surrounded by beautiful ferns where the creek trickles from the valley above. Established infrastructure includes power lines to a pump that offers underground piped water through the block to the higher section of the pasture land along with extensive farm fencing.
Most of the property slopes to the east and north east and is elevated from 110m above sea level at its lowest point to 170m above sea level at the highest point. Historic uses have been cattle & horse grazing in recent years and apple orchards on sections of the property in the past.
Access is currently established from the end of Chittys Road, where the existing formed driveway continues along the crown reserved road through the property with the gravel road having been established for many years. The 249 Jacksons Road address dates back to previous owners where the home and apple barn next door were all part of the property.
The property is directed by multiple crown land reserved roads that are fenced in with the property making the current fenced area slightly larger than the title size. There is also a high voltage power line crossing the property near the Jacksons Road frontage heading through the property to the south.
Located 5 mins from the centre of the Franklin township where there is a school, post office, cafes, and restaurants and 10 minutes from Huonville and 45 minutes from Hobart's CBD.
Acreages with this combination of features are becoming hard to find in the area.
