15 acres of serenity, surrounded by the greens of the bush and the blues of the bays. Located at the top of the hill behind the Murdunna Roadhouse, with 360-degree views out across Norfolk Bay, as far as kunanyi/Mount Wellington some 55kms to the west, and over the forested hills extending to the Tasman Peninsula to the east.
On the property, there is a comfortable off-grid cabin and additional cosy caravan, a large workshop and two smaller sheds. LPG gas and 12V power systems with solar have been set up for the cabin, the workshop and the caravan. There are four rainwater tanks.
The cabin has 4 rooms - kitchen, living room, bedroom and shower - and is well set up. It has a gas cooktop/oven, a substantial pantry, a gas fridge, a hot water shower, 12V lighting utilising LEDs, a 12V stereo system and a TV. There are also options for powering USB devices. We recently installed a new wood heater, which has been great for the chilly Tassie nights. Two water tanks adjacent to the cabin store plenty of rainwater.
We spent a lot of time living off-grid in the cabin and had intended to build a new home on the property, lodging a DA with Council. This was approved and a planning permit issued for a permanent dwelling. However, our plans changed as we wanted to live closer to our family. We have all necessary reports for the DA (detail survey, soil, wastewater, BAL) which are available on request.
The workshop is 6x9m and is also set up for 12V power, with a 240V petrol generator on standby when required. It has a combustion wood heater, and large water tank. There are two smaller sheds for storage. The caravan is located away from the cabin with a north-facing aspect. It is powered by 12V with solar panels and has a gas cooktop and fridge, and a diesel heater. It is set up under a sturdy open structure with a rainwater tank.
Mains grid power has been brought up Hawker Street by TasNetworks straight past our entrance gate. Provision has been made for connection to this property, which would be straightforward and cost effective, and an alternative to off-grid living.
The drive up the hill has been well constructed with a solid road base and gravel over the top. The property is fully fenced along all boundaries. Around one third of the property was cleared about a decade earlier and a dam constructed. There is a more open tract of bush to the north of the property, and around five acres of dense, established old growth bush with mature eucalypts on the south side of the property. There is plenty of timber for firewood.
The property is home to an abundance of wildlife and birds. Flora and fauna mark the seasons. There are fantastic local attractions on our doorstep including the vibrant Dunalley community, the wild beauty of Marion Bay, picturesque Sommers Bay, home to artists and holiday makers, a coffee van with a view of Eaglehawk Neck to take your breath away, the classic Lufra Hotel, beautiful waterways and beaches for boating, fishing and surfing, and endless bushwalking tracks.
With 15 acres, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty and future potential. There is a clean slate for building your dream home (STCA), many beautiful sites for a tiny house or Hipcamp, and plenty of space to share with others.
Or, you may simply embrace it as is - a bush retreat, a place to connect with nature and escape, somewhere to enjoy the serenity.
