Overview

Perched high above Derby with captivating views of Briseis Lake, this property is a distinctive, purpose-built offering that merges the flexibility of a thriving accommodation business with the potential for private residential use or future development.

Constructed in 2019 by Tasbuilt, this dual-lodge structure caters thoughtfully to the area's adventure tourism market, especially mountain biking enthusiasts. Each separate lodge comprises three bedrooms and two bathrooms, complemented by open living and dining areas and fully equipped kitchens, comfortably welcoming up to eight guests per lodge. The lodges can operate independently or be joined to accommodate larger groups of up to sixteen, offering a versatile layout that can also transform into a spacious six-bedroom, four-bathroom residence through minor modifications.

The property's design specifically supports active guests with amenities such as heated mudrooms, secure bike storage, dedicated workshop and preparation areas, outdoor showers, and a wash bay, ensuring convenience and functionality. Expansive decking areas provide panoramic views, while indoor wood heaters and an outdoor fire pit offer inviting spaces to relax after a day of exploration.

Since opening in 2019, the established Lake View Derby accommodation business benefits from a loyal repeat clientele and a market leaning towards longer stays and group bookings. Supported by a robust management setup including multiple booking platforms and locally managed maintenance, the business operates efficiently and can be managed remotely.

This offering extends beyond accommodation potential, promising a rare lifestyle opportunity in Tasmania's sought-after adventure region. Whether continuing as a commercial venture, developing a private retreat, or exploring further development prospects (subject to council approval), the property stands out for its quality construction, strategic design, and spectacular natural setting.
