289 Golden Hills Road, Redwood Valley, Tasman

Country life - with tennis court and pool

Here, with farmland spread out before you and long views from the Richmond Ranges to D'Urville Island and beyond, you can have a life the way you want it.
Buffered from far-away neighbours by your paddocks, two ponds, pasture for grazing, growing or keeping a pony or other animals.
It's your choice to get stuck in to “farmlet” life, or to simply enjoy the home and its gardens and lawns and superb recreaction facilities and leave the farmland to others to lease or graze.
A family has been raised here over 30 years, but now it's your turn to revel in the peace and space, with your pets and a few chickens - and a home which will become a magnet for friends and extended family.
The home is large enough to cope with a crowd, at 330 square metres and with five bedrooms, two living rooms plus a huge rumpus/games room.
The terraced lawn, with feature rock retaining, has a large flat area for cricket (with a proper practice net installed), badminton or croquet or kicking a ball - and playground equipment along with an in-ground trampoline.
Those who love their hobbies, however serious, have a large workshop area, with an attached former sleepout. There's loads of parking space and the extra-large double garage has a drive-through facility with its rear tilt door.
As for the farmland, eight paddocks are all fenced and with water troughs and with the two ponds for extra water storage. A shelter belt of gum and pine trees gives some protection from southerly winds.
The owners currently have an arrangement to graze neighbours' stock, but over the years have raised calves and cattle for extra cash and the home larder. Hay has been cut for winter feed.
While you'll love the peace and privacy, the drive into Brightwater village and all its community amenities is only 10 minutes. Richmond is not much further away. There are school buses taking children to primary and secondary schools from the end of the road.
