You will be in awe of the tranquillity and beauty that will surround you at this exceptional home that has been fastidiously renovated to provide a very comfortable, luxury country life just 25 minutes from Hobart's CBD. Immaculately presented, practical and private, this property is a rare opportunity to secure a remarkable lifestyle and the ability to accommodate integrated cross-generational living. Nestled into the top of a majestic hillside haven, the home is accessed from both Saddle and Groombridges Road and is immersed in a serene environment for relaxation and peacefulness. You will be the envy of your friends and family when they are invited to enjoy your hospitality. There is a choice of entertaining areas, and the warm and welcoming lounge room boasts a breathtaking view over the gardens, continuing out across to Bruny Island as far as Fluted Cape. Views of the surrounding hills and valleys are just as beautiful from the covered patio that looks north. A quality appointed updated kitchen with natural stone bench tops complete with 900mm stove with induction cooktop and walk in pantry is spacious and functional and also overlooks the incredible Channel view. The addition of a Wise Gourmet Woodheater in the lounge that seconds as a stove and oven brings a touch of romanticism to a winter's night in. The master suit is situated on the upper level and has a generous luxury ensuite with double vanity and the most outstanding water views, it really is a true escape for you to unwind! There is a second bedroom upstairs and two others on the ground level. A second living area exists off the foyer near the downstairs bedrooms that would be a great TV room for the children or a library or sitting room. There is a hydronic heating system in place that could easily be recommissioned. A dam and plenty of rain water tanks ensures you have a great supply of water. With northerly and easterly aspects you can be sure of great all day sun and fertile gardens. The separate one bedroom renovated chalet is self-contained with 2 living areas and great storage options and is perfect for the grandparents or the returning adult child. A charming studio adjacent to the main house with great views is a wonderful option for the artist or writer or perhaps for a yoga session. There is plenty of parking to allow space for the caravan or boat and for the guests that arrive to visit. Kettering is conveniently located to access all that the Channel has to offer. A first class marina and the Bruny Island ferry just minutes away, you will have a choice of cafes and restaurants nearby, a gym in Kettering and Woodbridge, plenty of walking tracks and local boat ramps, a choice of schools, a local sports ground, award winning wines, cheese, chocolates and more within a short drive and of course the coveted sense of community. Positioned to capture beautiful sunrises and loads of sunlight, living on this property you will feel at one with the natural surroundings and the landscaped gardens and have a real sense of space and privacy. Once home you won't feel like leaving! With too many inclusions to mention, this property will be worthy of your private inspection.
