Escape the Rat Race

Situated in the former tin-mining hamlet of Rossarden; this well-presented cottage offers an opportunity to escape the rat race and admire the majestic views of Stacks Bluff. Constructed in 1953, as housing for miners once employed at the now-defunct Aberfoyle tin mine, this weatherboard property offers the following noteworthy features to a buyer seeking peace and tranquillity in a close-knit community.
- Open plan living and kitchen area with an updated Norseman enclosed wood heater;
- Ample cupboard space, with updated Euromaid Oven;
- Three sizable rooms, two of which are currently used as bedrooms. The master bedroom is finished with a built-in wardrobe. The third bedroom is currently utilised for storage, but could easily be converted into a single bedroom;
- Generous size bathroom and toilet area;
- Separate laundry.
The exterior of the cottage has been freshly painted and the colour bond roof a recent improvement. The property has a large timber outbuilding; ideal for the home handyman to 'tinker' with woodwork and/or metalwork. Two smaller outbuildings have been insulated and plastered and could easily be converted into an additional bedroom or home office. An open carport and three-bay lean-to-shed provide additional storage options for the caravan; trailer and/or a second vehicle.
Set on a flat 0.226ha (0.55/half acre) allotment; a fully fenced 'deer-proof' garden was established by the owner for growing vegetables which includes a small orchard.
The property is connected to town water and septic sewer for wastewater.
Designed to take in the majestic views of Stacks Bluff (part of the Ben Lomond National Park) the proximity allows for the opportunity to enjoy the wildlife which peacefully roam the streets; Rossarden is an ideal location for bushwalking; recreational hunting and/or fishing; as residents can explore Storeys Creek and Rossarden Valley. With well-established native Tasmanian flora and fauna throughout the township, Rossarden provides the perfect destination to unwind, relax and slow down the pace of day to day life.
Rossarden is only 20minute drive (19km) from Avoca via the Storeys Creek Road and a 1hr and 14mins from Launceston CBD.
For the money-savvy buyer, to view this value for money 'weekender', situated in peaceful bushland surrounds; where you may even find yourself feeding some wild deer at your doorstep; feel free to contact Nick Hay for information or arrange a private inspection.
