Positioned in a natural sunny location with no close neighbours assures you peace and quiet in the rural aspect. You will have the sense of being removed from Hobart's hustle and bustle in the seaside town of Kettering just a few minutes' drive to the Bruny Island Ferry and within 30 minutes to Hobart. This 4.17 acre property is a dream for hobby farm enthusiasts and for those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle from the fully enclosed veggie garden and the many fruit tree varieties. The splendid large dam provides ample water supply for the whole productive veggie garden. Opening your car door and walking toward the wrap around verandah to the front door, your local frog family will greet you with their welcome song giving you the sense of country life and calmness in Tasmania. As you enter the home you will be warmed by the natural sunlight beaming in through the large windows and the double glazed sliding door into the open plan living area. As you settle in for the afternoon on the couch a sense of calm and "welcome home" will rush over you. You will be kept extra toasty warm by the wood fire and the residence being fully insulated provides extra comfort. Venturing away from your breathtaking view out to the backyard and move into your functional kitchen there you will find plenty of cupboards and the stunning Merbau timber bench tops. On this level there are 3 bedrooms all fitted with built-ins and the main bathroom complete with slate flooring and a separate shower and bath. The lower level of the home is where you will find the large main bedroom (which could also be separated to create income with short stay accommodation STCA). The area is fitted with a stylish ensuite, abundance of storage and double glazed windows and sliding door external access that leads out to a private fire pit area with screening and views of the garden. There are several well established fruit trees including persimmons, kiwi fruit, lemon, grapefruit and fig trees.
