Last Listing description (May 2023)

High up on a plateau sitting in the hills of Franklin, this 8.5 acres (3.468ha) of lush pastures has an ideal northern aspect and comes with a gorgeous original apple packing barn. Registered as 'Visitor Accommodation' with the local council, 'Braeside Barn' is a wonderful country escape for guests, or would be a lot of fun to live in whilst you are building your new home up on the hill.

Surrounded by other beautiful rolling, rural pastures with valley and mountain views, this really is a very special parcel of land in a great location. The area is affectionately known by the community as Braeside, which is made up of farms, orchards, and lifestyle properties, up in the hills of the quaint historic riverside town of Franklin.

There is power and access directly from Braeside Rd or you have the right to use the access that runs right up to the back of the property, allowing you to build at the top without your own big long driveway. There are Macrocarpa pines up one boundary and a row of Poplars on the other side that are a real feature. They will change colour with the seasons, turning a glowing yellow and orange in the autumn and then turn green again for spring and summer.

Facing due north allows you to design a passive solar home. Self-sufficiency with your own water collection, fruit trees and veggie gardens can complement a solar system, either connected to regular power, or completely off-grid. Run some animals or simply grow hay. The scope to create your own oasis is endless with plenty of space to spread out and develop a real self-sufficient lifestyle. Behind the barn, there is already a veggie garden and fruit trees that include Crab Apple, Cider & Eating Apples, Stella & Lapin Cherries.

The barn has been run as an accommodation business known as "Braeside Barn". This has been a fun pastime for the current owners, but it is now time to let it go for someone else to enjoy. Packed with some serious charm, Braeside Barn provides both a classic country experience for visitors and is a wonderful bonus to what is already lovely property. Inside, the main barn is massive and provides a wonderful space for the main living, kitchen and dining. Complete with a fully lined and insulated bedroom area and a bathroom with shower, vanity and composting toilet, this is a comfortable and exciting place to stay.

The big old sliding door opens up to let the valley views and sun into the space and at the other end, a door leads out to a private entertaining deck. A wood fire provides warmth during the cool of the evenings and a great atmosphere too. How good would it be to entertain your friends and family here, birthdays and special milestones or even a barn dance.

If you are after a proper country property with an ideal sized property consisting of such well-maintained pastures, with a barn conversion that is all done and good to enjoy, then this is it. Franklin is just down the road where you will find a choice of eateries, the wooden boat centre and the river foreshore for evening walks.

The main hub of the Huon Valley is 10 minutes away at Huonville, providing all your services and Hobart is a picturesque 45 minutes over the mountain. Please contact us for further information or to arrange a private viewing that is sure to impress.
