Located just 25 minutes from the Hobart CBD in the Huon Valley, this farm for sale Tasmania is a rare opportunity to make a lifestyle change full of opportunity and self-sufficiency.

Comprising a little over 20 hectares (50 acres) of mostly level pasture fenced into seven paddocks, the property was formally used for show horses and is well equipped with additional infrastructure for those wanting to work or train horses.

There is a sizable wash bay with cement slab and water connection and a shaded 50m x 40m post-and-rail fenced arena nearby. There is also a cleared riding track around the boundary of the property, great for working the horses or taking a leisurely bush walk. With Eucalypt windbreaks and fenced laneways between each paddock, the property is also suitable for cattle. The property previously ran Galloway cows.

A northerly aspect – and an abundance of water including town water supply gravity fed to all troughs in each paddock and a one-megalitre dam and two holding tanks, presents opportunities for other agricultural ventures including viticulture, permaculture or orcharding. The property already boasts a small orchard producing various fruits and nuts, supported by a compost area for fertilizing the gardens. There’s also a hen house.

What’s more, machinery storage is more than covered, with outbuildings including a sizable 205-square-metre five-bay shed with single-phase power, water and toilet facilities; and an additional five-bay storage shed at the rear of the garage for hay storage or large vehicles, horse floats, boats or machinery.
