After living in Melbourne for about 30 years my husband & I decided to move to country Victoria for a slower paced lifestyle. The only way was to buy our own business & take the plunge. Country living suited us both & the business!! Well let’s just say it was like buying a boat. The best 2 days were buying it & selling it. After 4 years it was time to move on.
Acreage & peace & quiet were my only requirements when I began looking on the internet. I soon realised that country Victoria was not an option as we didn’t want a mortgage (there was no way we would be buying another business). The properties that seemed perfect were well out of our price range. NSW properties were even more expensive & a cooler climate was preferable. Tasmania! I couldn’t believe how beautiful it seemed & how affordable. On the internet I looked at properties in many different areas & found exactly what I wanted in Lachlan (10 minutes from New Norfolk & 40 minutes from Hobart) on 16 acres with a gorgeous view of the valley. We decided that after a couple of years we could move if we found something better. In our opinion there is no better than the Derwent Valley. We are here to stay.
