So private that you don't realize there's a house here! This beautifully positioned cottage nestling amongst very light, easily managed bush and lawns on about 1.2 ha (approx. 3 acres), has been built with maximum privacy in mind. It has truly wonderful views across the d'Entrecasteaux Channel over Arch Island all the way to beautiful Bruny Island and beyond. The magnificence of this vista is breathtaking!
Ideal as either a permanent residence (with room to expand if necessary), or a lovely, comfortable holiday home this property will delight the buyer searching for the laid-back country lifestyle with truly beautiful ocean aspect. The property is virtual waterfront with only the road - a quiet country road at this point - and a small, easily traversed section of waterfront reserve between it and the foreshore. This is a great position for anyone interested in fishing or water sports, with easy access to the beach over the road, a glorious white-sand beach not 5 minutes drive away and boat ramps and jetties only a few minutes drive in either direction. If you are looking for a really great "lifestyle" home, this is it!
A large timber shed/garage with concrete floor and a double tandem carport beside it offers plenty of room for storing the boat, car and other toys and there is (off street) parking for easily 3 cars or a large caravan at the top of the very well-constructed driveway. The shed is easily converted to a studio for the artistically inclined. Pretty pathways are constructed around the house and a large covered patio behind it provides not only a great barbecue area but also a warm and sheltered spot close to the kitchen for the herb garden. A drip-feed watering system is in place here and throughout the garden and there is ample tank water for the family, the visitors and the garden from the 2 large Poly water tanks.
Just a few steps away is the vege garden in raised beds and fully protected from the abundant bird-life by nets. It wouldn't be hard to be self-sufficient here. In addition, despite the lovely high position above the water, the land around the house is level, easy-care garden and lawns. Behind this property are many hectares of pasture land belonging to a nearby farm, ensuring privacy.
Don't miss this property if you are looking for a great life in the Southern Channel less than one hour from Hobart - this is absolutely idyllic.
