The country lifestyle awaits you... everything with this property oozes country living. The 6 bedroom farmhouse was originally built in 1910 and original features such as a country classic kitchen, timber floors, dado walls, high ceilings and attic storage space take you back in time. There have been upgrades along the way however restoration back to its former glory is easily achievable. Outside the residence is a farming wonderland which is north facing and enjoys all day sun. The level 24.85 acres of rich fertile pastureland is fully fenced into 6 paddocks and is currently running cows that are in peak condition. Water is certainly not a concern either given there is a 1 mega litre dam that gravity feeds all the paddocks and there is a creek boundary as well as a bore, which has been tested over the years with a positive reading suitable for human consumption. Tank capacity for the home is a staggering 50,000 litres. Hay storage is not an issue as there are 3 hay sheds on site, as well as various other shelters and storage areas for tractors and farming implements. Original pickers huts are still located on the property... renovate them, perfect for cabins or guest accommodation. There is a 3 bay car port and a massive 218 square metre machinery shed complete with cement floor, 3 phase power and 6 entrances. There are so many other features to this well-appointed property including an original meat safe, animal shelters, chook shed, and vegie patch. Preserve your own fruit as well with the abundance of fruit trees including nectarines, apricots, apples, nashi pear, raspberries, cherries, and green gage. Be self-sufficient and live the dream! Located in the ever popular Mountain River, with a beautiful back drop of rural properties and mountain ranges beyond, commuting distance to Hobart is just 20 minutes.
