LOT 2 Heriots Rise, Franklin, TAS 7113

Tucked up a quiet country lane, this forested property offers just under 9 acres (3.617 ha) of seclusion among the towering gums.

The access road winds through native bush to the ridge line, where two entry points lead to the remnants of a large clearing. A captivating view up the Huon River is framed by the forest to the North East from the driveway access. A second smaller clearing at the rear of the block provides a gentler slope and an even more secluded area, ideal for those wanting to fully immerse themselves in nature. Both sites offer a great starting point for your new home (stca). Already progressed through the required reports and a development approval takes away unknown risks.

The block combines accessibility with a rich natural setting. Native vegetation and a natural spring at the top and a small dam, create a haven for wildlife and add practical water options. Required clearing of trees for fire protection will also maximise solar exposure, while the pastured hill to the west of the block offers a natural wind buffer. Previous planning approval documents and architectural designs for a modern off-grid cabin style dwelling are available, making it easier to bring your vision to life.

Located between Franklin and Castle Forbes Bay, Heriots Rise is a private lane with only a handful of homes, offering seclusion without isolation. Franklin, a riverside town with cafés and a vibrant community, is just five minutes away. Huonville, the main hub of the Huon Valley, is 15 minutes away for essential services, and Hobart is an easy 45–50 minute commute.

This property offers a rare blend of seclusion, natural beauty, and convenience that is perfect for those seeking a Tasmanian lifestyle close to modern amenities.
