Immerse yourself into a lifestyle that becomes everyday life, think picturesque, relaxing, spacious, a semi-rural retreat with the best of both worlds, tree top views across the countryside only minutes from Launceston CBD.
The facts: built in 1992, the property is located on approximately 5 acres – 1.94Ha – surrounded by covenanted bushy acreage, a ranch style house with mid-century modern aesthetics.
There is something instantly calming as you arrive, as you wait for a new automatic gate to open, a vista of rustling trees dot the driveway, a natural bushy outlook surrounding the home, as the sun glimmers on the deck – private and peaceful.
Vaulted ceilings and the use of timber create a mid-century modern feel to already spacious living zones, and a semi open floor plan provides the ability to close off living areas – a functional consideration for families and entertainers. A large wood fire adds ambiance, while a young semi industrial ducted heating and cooling maintains the home at temperature year round.
Something for the kitchen connoisseur, a Ricky Absolom design, the kitchen is a curation of Tasmanian Blackheart Sassafras and Celery Top. Showcasing some of Tasmania’s finest, the cupboard doors have been cut from the same timber slab, ensuring the wood grain marries up to the adjacent cabinetry. A stunning custom design offers practicality and luxury, double granite work spaces, stainless steel gas cooktop and under bench oven, dishwasher and extensive floor to ceiling cabinetry with lit overhead displays. A modern country vibe, warm and inviting there is very much so a homely feeling when you enter off the veranda. The kitchen adjoins a large open plan space with freshly polished floorboards, waiting to add your own flair the space will lend itself to most styling preferences.
Four accommodating and generously proportioned bedrooms flow off the living spaces, the main bedroom has a walk in wardrobe and ensuite, while the second, third and fourth bedrooms all have built in wardrobes. Each room has been re-floored with new carpet or vinyl planking, is ducted with heating and cooling and has quality Roman blinds, ticking off all those creature comforts innately sought after.
An opportunistic third living space, workshop, guest room or office has external access to the deck and can be closed off from the kitchen and main living area.
Outside you’ll find a landscaped yard, double car port and triple bay garage with double roller door access. The immediate exterior is secure for children and animals, with surrounding land fenced separately.
Alfresco with a view! Drink in the panorama, sink into the spa, a deck with wow factor overlooks beautiful Meander Valley countryside, the South Esk River and Hadspen and looks truly magical – imagine entertaining on a warm summers evening as the sky settles into hues of orange and twinkles off a bubbling spa.
For those operating a business from home, the storage, workshop space and overall security and privacy of the area are all essentials. Currently operating a distinguished breeding business, the ability to use the property for dual purpose has already been refined. The property also features dog proof fencing and caging suitable for this purpose, but if what you dream of is to have your own little hobby farm on the outliers of Launceston then these (professionally installed) additions will undoubtedly be exciting box tickers – just add animal of your choice!
Located 7 minutes from Prospect marketplace, 10 minutes to Launceston and 15 minutes to Perth and Longford, on the school bus route, for those working mobile the property is in a great location not too far out of town but so central to other townships.
For the family upsizing – or downsizing from a farm – for the couples chasing the idyllic hobby farming lifestyle, or the opportunity to combine business and residence, 5 Heald Road is positioned in the tightly held “suburb” of Travellers Rest.
