This is one you must come and see for yourself, no words or photos can really capture the essence of this lovely property and the wonderful location that is Promised Land. Named by the Irish settlers who were the first to hold title here as the land had been promised to them by the Governor of the times, it was reward for their contributions in the dangerous work of clearing roads and such in the district. Prior to this granting of title, only British subjects were given the privilege of owning land in Tasmania.
The property is made up of 2.46Ha (6.07 acres) of pasture fenced into separate paddocks with a stable and hay shed, perfect for livestock and a lovingly maintained and well presented weatherboard home. The home is insulated and has 3 double bedrooms, 2 with built-in robes and a pretty sunroom with views of the majestic Mt Roland. The lounge has full width picture windows, making the most of the winter sunshine and a gas heater for comfort.
The kitchen is well set out with a gas stove, walk-in pantry, timber cupboards and ample bench space while the attached dining room boasts two sets of French doors, one leading to the full length veranda at the rear of the home and the other to the beautiful attached pergola area at the side. The bathroom has a big deep bath to relax in and a separate shower and vanity. There is a separate toilet and laundry which has cupboards and bench space for sorting and folding the washing.
A large double garage with roller doors, power and concrete floor provides secure vehicle storage space while the cabin behind the home boasts two rooms, power and concrete floor making it perfect for a studio or granny flat. A number of small sheds also in the house yard are ideal for a chook shed, garden shed or whatever else you may need while the landscaped gardens are low maintenance and the mowing is easy being on level ground. The yard is fully fenced and private from the road while shade trees, flowering plants and shrubs create a cottage garden feeling as you pass beneath vine covered arches from one area to the next.
The paddocks are well fenced and the grass grows well enough to cut and bale for winter feeding, ample water is available from the spring fed water hole and rainwater tanks utilise the catchment from the garage and the stable to provide water for the stock in the paddocks. Energy saving features such as home insulation, off peak hot water, gas heating and cooking along with gravity fed water from the header tank up on the hill all contribute significantly to the savings on your power bills. You can save even more by growing your own fresh produce, fruit from established trees and rich basalt soil for vegetables, eggs and meat should you run some chooks and cows or sheep.
The views of the mountains from this altitude are even more impressive than the property, snow capped peaks in winter and stunning sunsets in spring and summer are yours to enjoy year round. Misty valleys below and eagles soaring above will draw you into this most amazing landscape; your friends will be green with envy! The area is serviced by school buses and it s only 13kms to the heart of Sheffield, Town of Murals and less than 35kms to Devonport making it ideal for commuting as well.
