37 Huon View Road

Lower Longley TAS 7109

A sealed woodland driveway, edged in stone, wanders to this small and private estate where a family home sits chalet style amidst 1.837 hectares (4.5 acres), and from here, the scenic valley landscape rolls forth to Grove and Sleeping Beauty. On the edge of a divide, this beautiful, gently sloping acreage, with space to run, bush to explore and land that provides for family life, is a mere 20 minutes from the City of Hobart and even less to Kingston and Huonville.
In an area of abundant wildlife, this Cape Cod style home is designed to blend into a landscape composed of small clearings amidst stands of eucalypts. Natural colours and timber elements from French doors to bay windows, dormers to two lengthy verandahs and a spacious sundeck beautify this traditional design.
Inside caters for everyone and every occasion. Timber floors, cabinetry and ceiling beams couple with floor heating, a wood heater and a heat pump to create a cosiness to defy the coldest of winters, yet throw open the doors and even a subtle breeze will ease the summer heat. In true family style, there are four bedrooms and two bathrooms (one new with a claw foot bath), plus a large rumpus room, a study, a wet room/laundry, open plan living and a carefully crafted kitchen that houses a gas and electric stove fit for a king. Completing the package is a walk in pantry, mirrored fridge freezer and dishwasher.
