Last Listing description (November 2020)

Set back amongst 25 acres of rolling pastures this gorgeous cottage is something very special. The original home is over 100 years old and more recently has been brought back to life with clever, sympathetic renovations. Consisting of 3 bedrooms and a full width open plan living, dining and kitchen, and a beautiful unique bathroom, this cottage is hard not to fall in love with. Outside, there are full wrap around verandahs and a rustic side entertaining area with a wood fire pot.

Lucaston is fast becoming a very sought after location due to the beautiful valley surrounds and the proximity to Huonville (5 minutes) and the Hobart CBD (25 minutes). The road to the property is a quiet country lane that meanders through the rural farmland setting, perfectly framed with the surrounding hills of gums. To the south, the views stretch out down the Huon Valley as far as the eye can see and to the north the Wellington Mountain Ranges provide a priceless backdrop.

As soon as you walk into the cottage, you are transported to a special place. The perfect marriage of yesteryear farm life with all the luxurious comforts of today work seamlessly together to create a wonderful feeling. The open plan central living hub is bright and airy due to the French doors at either opposing end, each inviting in rays of sunlight and inviting you out to the verandahs, and the rural vistas that surround this cottage providing an unparalleled sense of privacy.

There are gorgeous open fireplaces that create a wonderful warm sensation. Picture yourself in front of the roaring open fire whilst snuggled on the lounge with a glass of wine and a reverse cycle air-conditioner will keep you comfortable all year round. The front two bedrooms are huge and each offer a unique rural view through the sash windows. A practical 3rd bedroom could be the study or craft room depending on your needs. Opposite this is the stunningly charming bathroom. Set off with the brick fireplace and the amazing tiles, there is a seamless walk-in shower and an inviting claw-foot bath.

The kitchen and dining has a country flair with a touch of modern, complimented with another open fireplace. Quality appliances are well integrated providing a practical and very functional space. From here, the French doors take you out to the entertaining area with apple crates for your veggies and herbs. The central firepot is a real feature next to the outdoor table, ideal for entertaining friends or family well into the night.

The bottom section of the property offers mostly level hay paddocks, which are lush and green for most of the year. The back section starts to gently climb up into the hills that surround the back of the property. Up here there is some native bush land including a beautiful old gum tree that sits proud on its own on the edge of the slope with a perfect swing that overlooks the cottage down below. Two small dams and a larger dam could provide gravity fed water with some minor work to a large, fully wallaby proofed enclosure.

The cottage is currently set-up and operating as an accommodation and the sale can include the business assets and everything to operate as it is now should that be of interest. Whether it is as an accommodation or to move in and enjoy it for yourself, it is the quintessential Huon Valley Farmers Cottage. Please contact us for further information or to arrange a private viewing. Due to guests staying at the cottage, there is limited access, so please do not hesitate to make contact and lock in which day will best suit you.
