Overview

Kingston Beach is one of Tasmania's most charming and sought-after coastal villages, renowned for its natural beauty and enduring appeal. Nestled at the meeting point of Browns River and the sea, with the majestic kunanyi / Mount Wellington as a backdrop, this location offers a unique blend of scenic vistas and a relaxed, community-oriented lifestyle.

Historically significant, Kingston Beach's roots trace back thousands of years to the Mouheneenner people and later European settlement in the 1820s. This rich heritage is still palpable in the village atmosphere today.

Perched in a commanding position overlooking the shoreline, this distinctive 1930s residence is an exceptional example of period architecture, believed to have been originally constructed as a private seaside retreat. Remarkably, it has been owned by just two families since its inception, presenting a rare chance to secure a piece of Kingston Beach's architectural and social history.

Prominently positioned on James Avenue, the property sits on a substantial 1,330 square meter landholding, a scale increasingly rare in this tightly held area. Set over two levels, the home includes five bedrooms and three bathrooms alongside multiple living areas, while predominantly retaining its original character and charm.

The residence benefits from panoramic views extending from kunanyi / Mount Wellington to the expansive beachfront and beyond, offering captivating scenery throughout the seasons. Summer evenings can be spent observing the beach's vibrant activity, while winters provide cozy moments beside the fire, overlooking mist-covered waters and ever-changing skies.

The established gardens add to the property's allure, with stone terraces and sheltered sitting spaces that evoke the character of a bygone era, inviting tranquil outdoor enjoyment framed by the surrounding natural beauty.

An additional 806 square meter adjoining allotment is available subject to offers over $850,000. This second parcel holds appeal for those seeking potential development opportunities or wishing to expand their landholdings within one of Tasmania's most exclusive coastal precincts.

This offering represents more than just a beachside home; it is a rare opportunity to become the custodian of a property steeped in heritage and equipped with notable significance. Opportunities like this, characterized by scale, historic value, uninterrupted vistas, and future potential, are infrequent in Kingston Beach.

Potential buyers are invited to explore the possibilities that this distinguished estate offers. Private inspections can be arranged by appointment, ensuring exclusive access to this unique market offering with significant provenance.
