19 Duke St, Geeveston TAS 7116

Built in 1956, this charming home is tucked up a quiet street, just a stones throw from the village of Geeveston. Sitting on 4.3 acres, the property would be ideally suited to small scale hobby farming, market gardens or simply those looking for a more sustainable lifestyle. The home was designed to capture light and sun through large timber windows giving a lovely, welcoming feel as soon as you walk through the door. Some sympathetic renovations have been done over time to modernise the home, but largely the original features remain intact. The timber doors, architraves, ceiling roses and decorative cornice are all nods to the era of the home, and add a wonderful charm and sense of history. A flexible layout offers 3-4 bedrooms, 1-3 living spaces depending on your needs, a central family bathroom with shower and bath, and a large seperate laundry with great storage. Beautiful large, original hallways connect all areas of the home, and are a real feature in properties of this era.

As you enter the through the cute green door, you are welcomed into a practical space for shoes, jackets and boots. To the left, the quaint country kitchen has been lovingly updated with pressed tin details, timber benches and a large, Smeg oven. Around the corner, an intimate dining area is the perfect spot to entertain guests or enjoy meals as a family, complete with wood heater for warmth and atmosphere. Just off this room, a second living room or rumpus room is set up with a TV and blockout blinds, perfect for cozy movie nights. This room could also work as a home office, or extra sleeping quarters when needed. Through the hallway, a huge main living room has ample space for multiple couches and chairs. and there is another wood heater in here for cozy evenings. An original Art Deco ceiling rose sits proudly with a fabulous Boho light fitting adding to the charm of the home. The three rooms currently used as bedrooms are all large, fitted with built-in robes, and feature beautiful original windows which flood the rooms with light and warmth. The central family bathroom has been updated and offers a modern country feel, and a second toilet in the laundry offers great practicality.

Outside, a huge undercover outdoor entertaining area complete with handcrafted woodfired pizza oven will be the hub of the home during the summer months. Currently fitted with a dining table and seperate entertaining nook, this space is just waiting to be filled with your closest people. A large grassed backyard has been setup with fruit trees, multiple raised garden beds, a hot house and chook run, with low maintenance gardens around the house. Beyond the fully fenced yard, the acreage is split into 3 paddocks ideal for livestock of your choice, or maybe even a pony or two. Just near the house, a large 9mx6m (approx) shed is fitted with power (including 15amp) and is the perfect workshop.
