Property Talk
Discover the perfect bush retreat just 15 minutes from the heart of Hobart. Set on a sprawling 15.9-hectare property in the foothills of Kunanyi/Mt Wellington, this unique home offers complete privacy, breathtaking natural surroundings, and endless potential.
Nestled within a peaceful landscape of blue gums and peppermint trees, the residence is positioned in a 1.34-hectare clearing, providing ample space for expansion and creative possibilities. The home itself is spread over two levels, designed to embrace natural light and the stunning scenery. The upper floor features an open-plan bedroom with adjacent living spaces and kitchen all with large north- and east-facing windows. Completing this level is a small office, bathroom and a spacious 45 m² workshop-both the workshop and living areas can easily be converted into additional bedrooms. This makes the home highly adaptable to suit a growing family or those requiring more bedrooms. Further development lies downstairs with another workshop, second bathroom and rumpus room or studio with its own external access
Wildlife thrives in this secluded haven, with wallabies and possums grazing near the house, echidnas occasionally visiting, and a diverse bird population-including passing ducks and native species-flocking to the nearby dam. On fine nights, the balcony offers the perfect spot to enjoy the calls of frogs and owls, the dazzling Southern Cross, and the rare beauty of the Aurora Australis.
Beyond the house, the property boasts a large shed, a 100 m² fruit and vegetable garden, and a three-car carport with covered workspace. Sustainable living is made easy with solar power, solar hot water, a reliable town water supply, and a dam with underground firefighting infrastructure.
Surrounded by pristine nature yet completely private, this property offers the best of both worlds. Enjoy easy access to walking and cycling trails, a quick drive to Kingston Beach, and the welcoming atmosphere of the nearby Fern Tree Tavern. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful sanctuary, a family home with room to grow, or a nature-lover’s dream escape, this property is a rare and special opportunity.
This home is perfect for those who cherish nature, privacy, and a tranquil lifestyle while still being within easy reach of city conveniences. It would suit nature lovers, artists, writers, and anyone seeking a peaceful retreat away from the bustle of urban life. Families looking for space to grow will appreciate the adaptable floor plan, while outdoor enthusiasts will love the proximity to bushwalking and cycling tracks. Whether you’re looking for a private sanctuary, a creative haven, or a place to immerse yourself in Tasmania’s stunning natural environment, this property is an unparalleled opportunity to live in harmony with nature.
