A fine example of an older-style Adventure Bay holiday home, this tidy vertical-board cottage is conveniently located a very short walk from the beach and the sheltered waters of Captain Cook Creek.
Built from hardwood milled on the island and situated on a clear and level block just back from Adventure Bay Road, the house enjoys all-day sunshine and is within walking distance of the town's excellent general store, community centre and sports facilities. The Adventure Bay boat ramp and public jetty are close by – a little further on is the start of one of Tasmania’s Great Short Walks, the spectacular track to Penguin Island, Grass Point and Fluted Cape.
Inside, the comfortable living area is warmed by an energy-efficient heat pump. There’s a timber divider between the living space and the kitchen/dining area, which is compact and practical, with a solid timber bench and bar. There are three bedrooms, a small bathroom with shower and hand basin, separate toilet, pantry nook and a large covered veranda, where a washing machine is located. The veranda, which is glassed-in on the side of the house, wraps around the side and full length of the front – it’s a great spot to sit and enjoy the sun.
Realistically-priced in a popular and sought-after location, this home will attract plenty of interest. It’s an excellent proposition as a holiday weekender, a permanent island home or an investment in Bruny’s fast-growing short-term visitor accommodation boom.
