Nicholls Rivulet TAS 7112

Perched on the hillside up a rural road, you will feel away from it all within these 50 acres (20.59ha). Located between Oyster Cove/Kettering and Cygnet makes this an excellent location. Kettering is where you catch the ferry to Bruny Island or pop up the channel into Kingston and Hobart. In the other direction is the vibrant cultural country town of Cygnet. Surrounded by quality pasture paddocks, the unique farmhouse style home sits proud on the hill with lovely views out over the rolling hills and tree topped slopes. A good 20 acres of the 50 acres is usable pastures to either cut hay, run some cows, keep horses, simply agist or just enjoy the surrounds. The rest of the property is lush forest with a winter rivulet running through it.

As you pull into the driveway, you are instantly welcomed by tall gums that tower overhead. Just around the corner is a huge machinery shed for the tractor and implements. Straight ahead is a horse arena which provides another great flat area should you not need it for horses. From here the driveway leads to an electric gate allowing easy access in and out. The fully fenced area around the house keeps the abundant wildlife out and keeps pets and livestock in. A large concrete parking area is super practical in front of a 12m x 6m double garage and workshop.

The home is well set-up for entertaining and enjoying the outdoors with covered decking and a pebble and stone fire pit area. Nearby a path leads to a quaint studio, ideal for the budding artist or as is, currently a games chill-out room. Another path leads to the enclosed veggie and fruit tree area where the free-ranging chickens could provide you with fresh eggs every morning. On the roof, the self-sufficiency continues with a substantial grid connected solar system that will massively cut your power bills and even provide credits. A solar hot-water system will further reduce costs. Step inside to the open plan living, dining and kitchen space, which is huge and framed by the lovely, vaulted timber ceiling. A gorgeous stone wall separates the main living with a second living area, ideal as the more formal lounge and media room. Sliding doors lead out from both areas onto a full-length sundeck with views over your land and the surrounding hills.
