Situated just outside of Woodbridge lies Birch's Bay, one of the most desirable locations along the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. This idyllic 4 to 5 bedroom renovated home with an enviable garden and productive orchard sitting on a manageable 2 hectares (5 acres), enjoying some of the best views southern Tasmania has to offer, while still being within 35 minutes drive to Hobarts CBD.
Light filled and spacious is the first impression as you enter the home. The stunning Tasmanian Oak floors lead you into the tastefully renovated open plan living and dining area with floor to ceiling double glazed windows. Opening out from the main living area there is a large sun filled deck, perfect for those long sunny afternoons. Walking around the main living areas, you always feel connected to the garden and the D'Entrecasteaux Channel.
The recently renovated kitchen exudes elegance with Caesarstone benchtops, quality European appliances and large walk in pantry. Hosting a dinner party will be a pleasure with a spacious feel and intimate setting.
As you make your way up the hardwood timber staircase it becomes apparent that the master bedroom is one of the best spots to wake up to on the Channel. Enjoy the striking views of Bruny Island and the surrounding countryside with a cup of tea on your private tiled balcony or from your bed through those floor to ceiling windows, what a magical way to start the day. Complimented by a large ensuite bathroom and an adjacent parents retreat or study / 5th bedroom with more garden and district views.
The three remaining bedrooms (2 with built in wardrobes) are located on the entrance level with access to a large contemporary family bathroom featuring bath, separate shower toilet and vanity unit. A large mudroom / laundry with external access completes the main level of the home.
On the West facing aspect is a second alfresco dining area, allowing for a retreat on those windy days. From here access to the shedding and a separate workshop with further storage for the property can be found.
Apples, pears, apricots, plum, fig and quince trees make up the established and well loved orchard. An extensive established vegetable garden with drip irrigation (with timer automation) and plentiful water supply from the rainwater tanks (100,000L) will suit the most keen gardener. Two dams complete the package, with 2 petrol pumps and an electric pump ensuring that your watering needs are met. The rest of the property has planted out with a variety of flowers, native trees and thoughtfully landscaped in keeping with the rest of the countryside.
Sustainability has been taken into account with a solar system to minimize reliance on the grid in addition to a solar hot water system. Heating is provided with reverse cycle air conditioning, and a slow combustion woodfire for ambiance.
The village of Woodbridge is a couple of minutes away with a post office, West Winds community center, School and the highly awarded Peppermint Bay Hotel.
We look forward to meeting you at one of our open for inspections, or please enquire about a time to view this property privately.
