There is so much on offer with this property and not just the almost 50 acres of land (with 3 dams, pastured areas plus stands of timber). Set in a large clearing is a huge, American Barn-style shed which has been fitted out as a weekend retreat including a lovely bathroom with solar hot water (plus second toilet), kitchen area, 2 sleeping areas and cosy sitting room with large wood heater.
The shed is powered by 24 solar panels, a 6.5 kva inverter and battery bank (all professionally wired in) making it completely off-grid. The solar power has also been wired to an area approved for a house (approval has lapsed but is lodged at the Southern Midlands Council). The Barn, out-buildings, new septic, etc. have all been council approved and there is approx. 30,000 litres of water storage in new poly tanks. Re-fencing has been started and there are stacks of timber fence posts to complete the work.
Other inclusions are:
• A 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo (not registered) with trailer for 4 x 4 access to the tracks around the property for wood collection.
• A Milwood Caravan for extra accommodation.
• An International 8.5 kva generator for back-up power.
• 2 Shipping Containers in excellent condition.
• Approx. $15,000 worth of Double-glazed doors and windows for use in a new house or to convert the Shed to a dwelling.
• Phone booster for Mobile and Internet reception.
• Many more items are negotiable including a Dirt Bike, Rotary Hoe, Chain Saw, etc.
The property is set back from the road and accessed by a recent (and very well) constructed driveway and is located less than 30 minute drive to the bustling town of Sorell which has large shopping centres, a medical centre and school (School Bus pick-up close by). The beautiful East Coast town of Orford is around 35 minute drive as is the Hobart airport and it is just a 45 minute drive to the heart of Hobart.
