Looking for a change of pace? This idyllic and inviting lifestyle property offers the serenity of quiet country living, just 25 minutes from Launceston's CBD.
On offer is a gorgeous 3 bedroom/1 bathroom beautifully presented weatherboard cottage, circa 1890, with large verandas and expansive yard providing plenty of space for the kids to run and play. The total land area is 4,047m2, which includes a separately fenced paddock of approximately 3,000m2 at the rear of the property.
Set in the rolling hills of the hamlet of Lilydale, this home and land is perfect for raising a family or simply relaxing in the country lifestyle.
This property is located on the school bus route and is a very convenient 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk to the town's shops and services, including the medical centre, pharmacy, hardware store, large IGA, municipal swimming pool and Lilydale District School (Kinder to Grade 10).
Inside the home, baltic pine has been restored and re-used throughout. Recycled oregon beams add character to the rustic skillion kitchen, which has a new gas oven and old world combustion stove.
The open dining/kitchen area is light and airy, making a wonderful space for family and friends to gather.
The lounge room offers a relaxing and tranquil space, featuring the original floorboards and cosy wood heater. There is also an in-built TV/entertainment cabinet concealed behind a sliding door in the baltic pine dado.
The country-style bathroom has a corner shower/spa and porcelain pedestal sink and highlights a beautiful leadlight window which captures the afternoon sun. The hot water is supplied by an extremely efficient Bosch gas continuous flow system.
All three bedrooms are light-filled and spacious with quality carpets and light fittings. Touches of lead lighting and an open fire place in the master bedroom add colour and charm.
There is a large outbuilding featuring a double garage, 2 utility rooms and laundry, with convenient access to the clothes line.
The yard has garden and lawn areas with many stunning established trees and fruit trees, including delicious eating and cooking apple varieties. A garden shed provides extra storage space.
The paddock is flat and farm machinery accessible, and has previously been enjoyed by horses, cows and miniature goats. Please note that it is currently inhabited by a friendly sheep named Scott who comes with the sale (if desired) and will help to keep the grass down.
Don't miss out on this rare and charming delight.
