A tree-lined drive leads to the front of the house where there is generous parking space. Surrounded by trees and a mature garden, the house enjoys total privacy - an ideal family home with the added bonus of a converted barn with separate entrance currently including double garage, workshop and professional consulting rooms.

Upstairs there is a large. open plan room (80 sq metres) currently used as office space and study, with views over Kingston to Derwent River and up to Mt Wellington in the other direction. There is abundant room for storage in the roof space on either side of this room.

There is also plenty of room for storage in the roof space and in the barn. The swimming pool and hot water system are solar heated, the latter with off-peak booster. In front of the house an old garage has been converted into a sleep-out. In addition there is a chicken house, sheep shed, a productive vegetable garden with "grow house", cubby house in the pine trees to the south of the house and a small croquet lawn/play area adjacent to the pool.

On the other side of the hallway there is a large sitting room (45 sq metres) with open fireplace and french windows, also opening onto the veranda.

Next to the sitting room is the kitchen equipped with fridge, dishwasher, split level oven and ceramic cook top, which connects with a large sun room/family room (50 sq metres) with wood heater, opening onto the pool and garden area.

The history of this unique property is retained in photographs and anecdotes. The vendors have lived at Firthfield for over 25 years and have lovingly maintained and developed the house and its ambience.
