Last Listing description (July 2024)

'Omaroo' meaning beautiful view, is a charming Country Estate, offered to the market for the first time, where you can experience the tranquility of country living with this classic 1930's farmhouse nestled in picturesque surroundings on a significant land holding.

Magnificent views of Sleeping Beauty (Collins Bonnet and Trestle Mountain), beautiful gardens and a large coverage of mostly flat pasture creates a delightful property that offers an idyllic country lifestyle. An expansive land area of 27.46 hectares (67.86 acres) is perfect for primary production, the passionate equestrian or those seeking a serene retreat away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

The 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home features an open-plan living area and 9ft (2.7m) ceilings throughout. A choice of wood heater or reverse cycle air-conditioner provide a comfortable living environment all year round, while glass sliding doors from the kitchen and living areas showcase the stunning view and provide easy access to the established gardens.

A west facing sitting room enjoys afternoon sunlight filtered through the silver birch branches and has been updated with a reverse cycle air conditioner. A feature of the room is the original mantle which is made of Huon Pine and Myrtle.

The three bedrooms are generously sized, each offering ample storage space and garden views. The bathroom is well-appointed, featuring quality fixtures and fittings.

Parking and storage are never a problem with two carports and outbuildings, providing ample space for your vehicles with space for additional storage. The original apple shed is a massive 74m2 which offers extra storage space or could be used as a workshop or hobby room or perhaps converted into a cellar door or farm gate experience (STCA).

One of the standout features of this property is the stunning garden surrounding the home. It's a green thumb's dream, with plenty of space to grow your own fruits and vegetables, or simply enjoy the mature rhododendrons, azaleas, topiary hedges, tulips and more. The garden further enhances the country feel of this home, offering a peaceful space to relax and enjoy the outdoors. One of the current owners fondest memories includes taking a blanket out to the garden and enjoying a picnic with her grandchildren.

The significant landholding receives great sunlight, has captivating views and plenty of privacy and space. It is predominantly pastured and fenced however around one third of the title is natural bushland offering endless opportunities for exploration. Three dams provide for the property's water needs.

This property offers a unique opportunity to enjoy the Huon Valley community, while only a 30 minute drive of the Hobart CBD and under 20 minutes drive to Kingston, it's a perfect blend of country charm and suburban convenience.

Take hold of the opportunity to make this charming country home your own. Contact Alison today to arrange a viewing. Experience the peace and tranquillity of country living, right here in Mountain River.
