It is the location of this beautiful property that will instantly impress. Positioned on a freshwater lake within the northern end of the very picturesque Huon Valley makes this property very desirable. The property boundaries incorporates part of the lake, totalling just under 12 acres (4.767ha), it is your own private park, native garden and forest meadow. All this with a well thought through energy efficient modern, yet country style home surrounded by rural pastures, other lifestyle properties and views of the mountain range.

As you arrive at the gate, the long Crab Apple lined driveway welcomes you to come in and discover this amazing property. At the top of the driveway, the home is perfectly positioned to enjoy the views of the lake, the surrounding hills and your own private forest, all the while maximising complete privacy within the most incredible park-like grounds. Fully fenced, helping with keeping the wallabies out and at the same time, creating a large area that contains the beautiful, well thought through garden setting and a secure area the family pet to run around in.

The clever design of the home beautifully integrates into the natural landscape. This is classic country living with all the modern features we have come to expect. The home is double glazed and highly insulated. A solar tube hot water system reduces the power bills along with the grid-connected solar array, which is well hidden from sight on the double garage/workshop. Self sustainability continues with a veggie and fruit tree enclosure that will provide you with fresh home-grown produce.

Taking advantage of the sunny northern aspect, the home enjoys free warmth from the low sun in the winter months, which streams in warming the home naturally. A strip of tiles further captures and stores the warmth radiating it back into the room. Then, come summer when the sun is higher in the sky, the verandahs provide shade, naturally cooling. The large picture windows not only provide the passive solar benefit, but also allow beautiful natural light to fill the home and frame the gorgeous views available from every side. Well thought through, the lounge, the dining, the kitchen, and the master bedroom all get the benefit of the lake view.

On entering, you are welcomed into the large open plan living. Timber floors instantly create a warm and inviting atmosphere, complimented by the Cheminee Phillippe wood fire that makes a wonderful feature in the centre of the room. A reverse cycle air-conditioner will otherwise keep you comfortable all year round. The extra high ceilings, along with the large windows creates a great sense of space with the lounge at one end, the dining in the middle and the kitchen at the other end.

Quality is evident throughout the home, this is highlighted in the kitchen, where everything is well thought through including the fully integrated dishwasher, fridge and countersunk sink, providing a slick and classy look. Did I mention the views of the lake, the garden, the forest and mountains from every window, that bring the natural environment inside. Down the hall leads to the master suite and guest bedrooms. The ensuite and family bathrooms are just beautifully done adding a touch a luxe. Even the laundry is super well though through.

Back outside, a track leads to the large stand of gums that are like a meadow for you to enjoy all to yourself. The neighbour agists his cows here if you'd like, otherwise they are just over the fence to enjoy from a distance. The property also has the benefit of being mostly level, yet has the undulating hills around it. This really is a very special property.

The main hub at Huonville where you will find all your larger country town shops and services is within 10 minutes by car. The Hobart CBD is within 30 minutes, making this a very popular location within the Huon Valley.
