25 Guys Road

Nestled into 4999m2 of level land hugging Agnes Rivulet, this is your opportunity to make dreams of a more sustainable life, a reality. The home has been cleverly designed as two pods with a strong focus on solar passive principles. The burnished concrete floors are heated by low winter sun through large north-facing windows and doors which in turn slowly released warmth back into the home throughout the day. In the summer months, eaves shield the high summer heat ensuring a cool and stable indoor environment. The windows and doors are all double glazed, and the walls, ceiling and slab are fully insulated. If you do need some extra heating or cooling, both pods are fitted with reverse-cycle air conditioners, and the main pod also had a slow combustion bakers oven which can be used both for cooking and heating. The thoughtful design extends to the exterior of the building with a mix of exterior cladding materials. Tasmanian Oak shiplap cladding finishes the north side of the home, and the entertaining courtyard, while durable colorbond protects the home to the south-west. This home feels truly settled into the landscape, offering warm, welcoming spaces and plenty of outdoor area for growing fruit and veggies, or even having a small animal or two. The home is connected to town water supply, with additional tank water storage for gardens and outdoor use. The tank can easily be connected into the home if you'd prefer this for your drinking water. Under the one gable roof, the home's smart design creates two distinct pods connected by an entertaining courtyard, protected from the weather. The main pod is designed with a large central living and dining area, and a stylish and functional kitchen. A stacking sliding door opens this space onto the well established native gardens and offers more undercover seating for enjoying the early morning sun. The indoor and outdoor living zones flow beautifully, making the most of the natural light and shade. The kitchen has been designed by a family who love to cook, featuring a 900mm Belling stove, large pantry storage, durable timber bench tops and mark-resistance matte cupboards. In addition, a Nectre bakers oven next to the kitchen is a useful heating and cooking tool when the weather cools down. Whether you're baking bread, heating soup, or slow cooking dinner, this fire is sure to be your favourite winter companion. The spacious master bedroom has a beautiful outlook over the property and is serviced by a luxury bathroom with deep bathtub for soaking and large, glass and tile shower. In this pod, you'll also find the laundry with excellent extra storage. Across the courtyard is the second pod, ideal for guests or multi-generational living. This pod offers a large bedroom, full-size bathroom and a comfortable living and dining area, all with lovely views over the property, and easy access to outdoor zones. There is a practical kitchenette here as well (no fixed cooking facilities), ideal for weekend or weeklong stays, or even something more permanent. Outside, the property has been well landscaped for easy maintenance. The north-facing native garden gives the home some added privacy with gravel paths leading you around the home, and the beginnings of fruit and veggie patches ready for you to expand. This section of the yard is fully fenced ensuring it's safe for kids and pets. In addition to the well designed home, the workshop for the property is equally well thought through offering a lined 9m x 7m shed/garage with an adjoining 7m x 7m carport. The extra height carport is ideal for those with boats or caravans needing a bit of extra space. The workshop is fully powered and fitted with glass windows and doors allowing natural light to flood in, as well as a woodfire and ample extra storage. The styling of the workshop and carport integrates smartly with the design of the house ensuring the same quality is felt throughout. The boundary of the property goes right down to Agnes Rivulet which is a charming spot to sit in the warmer months, having a picnic while the kids and pets play on the flat, grassy area. This fantastic package is located within walking distance to the Cygnet village, as well as the local football oval just down the road. Cygnet itself is a vibrant, artistic hub bursting with local cafes, restaurants and artisan makers of all kinds. There are several schools, supermarkets, doctors and a strong festival and market culture. Approximately 15 minutes drive will have you in the Huon Valley hub of Huonville, and around 45 minutes drive will have you in Hobart CBD.
