310 Bakers Creek Road, Lucaston, Tas 7109

Nestled within the picturesque Lucaston Valley, 'Mayflower' is a charming and idyllic country property with just under 10 acres of lush pasture and flanked by Bakers Creek that flows year round. Mayflower was designed in the Victorian Gothic style and whilst the home oozes the delicate charm of the late 1800's, it comes with modern comforts that include some double glazing, a solar array, and a thermally efficient rendered Hebel Block construction. The home is a spacious 210m2, so while it may look quaint from the outside, inside there is space for the whole family to spread out, or maybe just for the two of you to enjoy a sense of quiet luxury in the pristine Huon Valley.

As you enter this charming home, you can't help but notice the meticulous attention to detail. From the intricate fretwork, fine timber architraves and skirting boards, to the unmarked polished timber floors throughout. This wonderfully well maintained home feels like new, and yet encapsulates all that is a by-gone-era. Spanning across 2 levels, the home offers a flexible layout of 3 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms, a study, 2 living zones and a gorgeous country kitchen.

The main bedroom on the lower level feels utterly opulent with a spacious walk-in robe and luxurious ensuite complete with deluxe freestanding bath and walk-in shower. Upstairs, there are 2 additional bedrooms as well as another bathroom offering plenty of space for guests or the children. The heart of this home is unquestionably the stylish open plan living, boasting a fantastic north-easterly aspect allowing light to flood through the huge double-glazed windows and doors. Here, a Norwegian Jotul wood fire provides warmth and a lovely atmosphere, and a reverse cycle air conditioner will keep you comfortable all year round.

The charming country kitchen comes complete with stone bench tops, a 900mm Smeg stove with gas hob and ample pantry storage. With entertaining in mind, the kitchen is politely positioned out of sight from the dining area meaning you can make all the mess you need to when cooking up a storm! When dinner is over and the wine bottle is empty, the second living room is the perfect place to retreat with a cozy JetMaster open wood fire.

The large windows that surround the main living space beautifully frame the views out to the park-like gardens, allowing you to survey your whole property. The ornamental trees burst with colour and change throughout the seasons, from the gentle Spring blooms to the vibrant oranges of Autumn, you'll fall in love with your very own sanctuary. For those seeking to explore the dream of a hobby farm, this property is perfectly suited with excellent fencing and rich, productive soil for animals or crops. Alternatively, cut hay or simply maintain as your private park.

The property offers plenty of fantastic infrastructure including a European inspired covered entertaining area that links the 6.2x8.8m garage/workshop and adjoining carport. A sauna and a super practical studio with its own ensuite are located at the rear. Tucked away around the corner, there is another 6x9m workshop/garage and 6m machinery/farm shed with a well set up fruit and veggie area complete with irrigation.

Water is certainly in abundant supply here with access to 4 dams on the property, as well as rights from the neighbour's dam, which is piped all around the property on a gravity feed system that requires no pumps. The impressive Bakers Creek that runs the length of the bottom boundary is a real gem. Sandstone cliffs provide an amazing backdrop and ensures complete privacy of this pristine natural environment. This is the perfect spot to enjoy a fire pit in the cooler months, swim in the summer months, or simple kick back and watch the resident platypus go about its business.

Meticulously constructed in the early 1990's by two local expert heritage home builders, the rendered Hebel block construction was a pioneering decision well ahead of its time. The Hebel blocks offers great thermal efficiency giving this home a 7-Star Energy Rating, as well as reducing noise and fire resistant, as well as being sturdy and low maintenance. Additional features have been added to the home overtime including a 6.5kw solar array with battery-ready inverter, and a full sprinkler system for the garden, all serviced by the neighbouring dam and operated by a simple turn of the tap.

Lucaston is located just 30 minutes drive south of the Hobart CBD making it an ideal property for those who still require a daily commute to the city. There is a school bus stop 50m away and the Huon Valley hub of Huonville is approximately 10 minutes drive where you'll find cafes, shops, schools, restaurants and bars. There is so much on offer here at the gorgeous 'Mayflower' and we can't wait to show you through in person.
