Situated approximately 30 minutes from Hobart, this exceptional property offers a unique blend of lifestyle and business potential on 15 acres of usable land. The expansive grounds provide ample space for family enjoyment and outdoor activities, including private bike tracks and pasture suitable for livestock.

The residence is a distinctive three-storey home positioned in the top corner of the land, offering panoramic views across the undulating landscape towards Frederick Henry Bay and kunanyi/Mt Wellington. A bitumen driveway leads to the home, which features extensive parking, a double carport, multiple sheds, and internal access through a double garage.

The large upstairs deck is designed to maximize the stunning views and is equipped with German-engineered retractable outdoor blinds, allowing for comfortable use throughout the year. The home’s interior is designed with entertaining in mind, featuring an impressive indoor heated salt chlorinated pool with an artistic mural, a shower, and a toilet. This pool area connects via stairs to a spacious family and games room.

The open-plan lounge, dining, and kitchen area is striking, with exposed timber beams and a balcony that highlights the home's size. The kitchen is well-appointed with Blackwood cupboards, granite benchtops, an electric oven, a six-burner gas stove, and a slow combustion stove that also heats the hot water system. Double-glazed windows and doors enhance energy efficiency and provide tranquil views, with sliding doors opening to a level rear courtyard garden and a large undercover alfresco dining area overlooking a garden oasis and a three-person spa.

The fully fenced gardens are well-established and feature a variety of herbs, berries, apples, and native edible plants, supporting a rich local flora and fauna. Upstairs, four bedrooms and a main bathroom offer loft-style spaces with views, while stairs also lead down to a rumpus room that has been used as a private studio space with its own ensuite and separate entrance, ideal for guests or short-term accommodation.

Outbuildings include a large shed with lighting, power points, a mezzanine floor, and workbenches, plus covered storage and two additional smaller sheds, providing extensive space for hobbies or trades.

Cost-saving features include over 60,000 litres of water storage across five tanks, an irrigation system for garden areas, pop-up sprinklers for the front lawn, and 27 solar panels feeding directly into the power supply with excess power credited back to the owner.

Currently operated as short-term accommodation, the property is sold fully furnished and has demonstrated substantial income potential, with the studio space earning $50,000 over three years and the main home generating $11,000 in a single month. The versatile property offers numerous opportunities such as additional short-term accommodation, a wellness retreat, beekeeping, or agricultural projects supported by three dams.

Located just ten minutes from Sorell, the property provides convenient access to medical services, shopping, dining, schooling, and agricultural suppliers, combining luxury, privacy, and space with excellent income possibilities.
