169 New Road, Franklin, Tas 7113

Extraordinary opportunity to acquire a unique and character filled home with potential to be self sufficient whilst still offering all the conveniences of modern day living. Lovingly constructed of rendered straw bale and vertical boards along with double glazing this thoughtfully built north facing home remains cosy and warm in even the bleakest of weather. 

Set across 1.952ha of fertile soil and beautiful bushland, the property is surrounded by low maintenance, established gardens and lawns and offers two fully fenced paddocks. Chicken coups and thriving veggie beds including numerous fruit trees only add to the properties self sufficiency. 

The residence has been designed with integrated indoor and outdoor living in mind and the effortless flow of the home is a true testament to this design brief. Clever architecture creates excellent lifestyle spaces, a large proportion of which could easily be closed in to create a commodious living room. The home comprises open plan kitchen/dining/living with direct access to a sprawling timber entertaining deck, three double bedrooms, family bathroom and laundry. 

Located minutes to the delightful and increasingly popular village of Franklin with its cafes, restaurants and Wooden Boat Centre the property is a mere ten minute commute to bustling Huonville with all the services you could desire and only 40 minutes from Hobart.
