56 Kermandie River Rd, Geeveston TAS 7116, Australia
You’re sure to fall in love with this enchanting character home, that sits within a 10 minute stroll from the Geeveston township. Its charming 1940s façade still boasts the red brick, art deco pillar by the portico, and timber framed sash windows still feature throughout.
The home may be little, but it has a big personality, and the current owners have stayed sympathetic to its vintage while adding modern comforts and conveniences. The country kitchen was upgraded fairly recently and now offers a pyrolytic oven, great storage, and an inset wood heater.
The living room is found off the entrance hall and has a reverse-cycle heat pump. The original, now redundant heater is still inset into the fireplace and serves as a lovely retro reminder of how simple times used to be.
The cottage offers two bedrooms, with the spacious master providing built in storage and the beautiful morning sun streams through the original rolled glass windows.
The delightful grounds span over 1000m2 and there is a spacious, partially covered deck that allows you to entertain while enjoying them.
Well defined paths lead you through the gardens, which are filled with colourful flowering varieties, fruiting trees, and raised veggie beds. There’s an impressive chicken coop at the rear of the garden and a sweet little studio that would make an ideal home office.
On still evenings, you can sit in the gardens by the firepit and listen to the flow of the Kermandie River which is not too far from here. Impressive sunsets are often seen thanks to the open westerly outlook and during the day, this entire property is soaked in sun.
Just down the road, you’ll find shops, cafes, short walks and playgrounds and the Hartz National Park is a short drive away.
