74 Judds Hill Road, Geeveston TAS 7116

Positioned up a quiet country road up on the hill, this gorgeous cottage enjoys uninterrupted vistas over rolling green pastures perfectly balanced by stands of gum trees that line the surrounding hills. Set on a total of 6.75 acres (2.732ha), the property consists of mostly level farm land, with multiple fenced paddocks of lush pastures.

The cottage was originally built back in 1940 and has many lovely features from that era, including beautiful timber floors throughout, dado wall panels, fire places and ceiling rosettes. As you enter, you are greeted with a wide hallway that leads through to the kitchen at the far end and the main lounge and dining off to the side. Both of these overlook the backyard, the food production area and down the valley.

Large picture windows perfectly frame the views as well as capturing the northern sun, providing plenty of natural light and warmth to flood inside. There is a slow combustion wood fire in the corner of the lounge, ideal for those cooler nights and creating a snug atmosphere. A fully ducted air-conditioner throughout the home will otherwise keep you in complete comfort all year round.

The kitchen is a unique rustic country style, contrasting the very 'now' family bathroom with gorgeous textured tiles. Renovations have brought this old cottage up to date with insulation in the walls and ceiling, making it very cosy and far more energy efficient. Care and thought has gone into maintaining the authenticity of the period character, all the while modernising. The workmanship can't be faulted and will provide you with a low-maintenance home for years to come.

Out the back is a sundeck, ideal for entertaining friends or simply sitting back overlooking your property with a good cuppa in hand. Accessed through a very practical mud room, this then leads down to the food production area. A fully fenced veggie garden complete with chicken coop will keep you fed with home-grown produce and farm fresh eggs. Over to the next fenced area is your established fruit trees. The whole area around the home is well fenced and ideal for little kids to run around in safety as well as containing the family pet.

The paddocks are ideal for a few cows or maybe you have always wanted sheep. Keep it simple and just cut hay once a year, or go the full hobby farm with pigs, goats and maybe even a couple of ponies. There is already shelter for animals or hay storage in the middle of the property, or would be ideal as stables.

Located just out from the centre of Geeveston makes this lovely rural escape close to conveniences and services such as cafes, schools, doctors, a small supermarket and even a wine bar. Geeveston is the most quaint country town with plenty of old world charm. Down the road is Port Huon with access to the Huon River, a sports centre complete with indoor heated pool. The main hub of the Huon Valley is only 15 minutes away at Huonville.
